That wasn't reported last night, but at least that makes a little sense. It must have been extremely mild because he was bouncing all over the dugout after he was pulled, laughing and joking with everyone.
Pulling Scherzer after the 6th of a 2-0 game while he only threw 76 pitches and wasn't coming up to bat, with the Dodgers setup man and closer unavailable, is a ... bold move.
edited: Yep, and 3 batters later it's a tie game.
Cole dominating tonight with 15 K's. I have to think he's done though. Would have been interesting to see if he could have gotten to 20 or 21 if the pitch count wasn't so high.
3 Players not under contract next year. I'm thinking Pillar is probably finished and Baez and Lindor just cost themselves a crapload of free agent money this offseason.
