Backdoor Slider 8,293 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 3 minutes ago, herschel said: Does this mean Maeda pitches on Wednesday against Pit? Brandon McCarthy's (shoulder) turn in the Dodgers' rotation will be skipped. McCarthy was pushed back from Saturday to Sunday after hurting his left (non-throwing) shoulder in the weight room, and then Sunday's game was rained out. Rather than have him take the ball Monday, the Dodgers have decided to just keep everyone else on turn and let McCarthy heal. Alex Wood will face the Pirates on Monday. I think so. Scared to put him in in my weekly league! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Caelum 717 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 He was originally supposed to pitch Wed vs. Pit before the rainout brought the possibility of pushing everyone back a day. I believe skipping McCarthy puts everyone back on the original schedule (wood-urias-maeda va pit). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chud12 4,076 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Looks like he is compeltley out of that early season slumber, glad I picked him up for these last 3 starts.. C, SO could occur tonight.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PirateFan43 22 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 What an excellent break for Maeda owners. Instead of having to pitch at Coors (where GMs probably would've benched him), he gets to face the Pirates at home. Throws an absolute 8 1/3 inning gem. The accumulation of little breaks like this throughout the season are so impactful. Can be the difference between winning or losing your league in the final week.

street sharks 3,278 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 I gotta admit I was close to dropping him but I had to remind myself that he faced Colorado and AZ twice to start the season lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cmilne23 10,559 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Pirates will be the gift that gives a lot this year. Just an atrocious lineup. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

treat88 615 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Pirates suck for sure, but Maeda deserves a lot of credit. He's been legit his last 3 outings regardless of opponent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My Dinner With Andre 5,805 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Sooooo the Dodgers have figured out how to deploy a 6-man rotation with only 5 roster spots being utilized. Got it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
