in some ways perhaps but Murph had a decade-plus of pro ball experience before taking over in Milwaukee -- Vitello has none

not saying it won't work and we always appreciate unusual moves like this because it's way more fun to talk and think about, it's just an undeniably humongous gamble

ALCS Game 2 pitching match-up is so fun

wild to think Logan Gilbert has pitched twice since Trey Yesavage carved up the Yankees 8 days ago

can the rookie replicate that dominance against another good lineup while this time facing the pressure of being down in the series?

we’re about to find out!
