Yeah he is pitching his way out of the rotation.

Knew that was coming. Bassitt has been putrid and totally off.

How many of those ahead of him have extreme platoon splits?

He's going max 3-4 innings. Hopefully with no further damage.

I'm no fan of the early hook, but he looks completely cooked from the start tonight. As if he wasn't expecting to pitch today. Never seen him this bad. Every pitch is a meatball.

It would be like 5-0 or more without Lukes. Bassitt is toast. Limited leeway if he comes out looking like shit to start the third.
At this point, just looking to squeeze maybe two more innings out of him before having to go to the pen. With deGrom over there, and the way we've been swinging lately, this feels like it's already over.

This might be the game to save the pen and let Bassitt take it on the chin with Degrom on the mound

Also its 50/50 for me between Bassitt/Berrios who comes out of the rotation, but i also wouldnt be shocked if they try a 6 man.

I get being irked with how Santander has worked out so far but thinking that some of these pretty good bench bats are better options is kinda nuts

They won't bring Bassitt out of the rotation, and they won't drop Lauer for obvious reasons yet, so it'll be six.

Going 6 for too long might slaughter the bullpen

If we could airdrop the 21-24 Santander into this lineup, right now. He's neck and neck with Bo for 3rd best stick in the lineup. An argument could be made for Schneider as well, his 133 wRC+ doesn't look luck driven. His walk rate and power might be for real, though I'd like to see it for more than 150 AB before I considered him better than that Santander, considering how last year went and all.

And im not here to shit on Lukes/Barger they are both very good players on the busy side of a platoon, but they shouldnt face LHP and Clement shouldn't face RHP, ideally.

Barger should be in the lineup every day.

Apple TV broadcast is terrible. There are too many interviews being done during at bats, and there is precious few seconds of airtime without any commentary.
These people are clearly getting paid by the word.

82 wRC+ against lefties suggests otherwise. Though I agree from a development standpoint. He's not going to get better against them if he's not exposed to them, and when he eventually takes over as full time 3B, if he's even a 90-100 wRC+ against lefties, you can leave him in the lineup for his glove.
