Yes IKF is a big question. I think his stick will be pretty useless against Yamamoto, Glasnow, and Ohtani. Put him in against Snell, save him for later innings against the 3 righties.
Straw wRC+ against LHP - 93.
Lukes wRC+ against LHP - 99.
Snell has a typical LHH vs, RHH performance split.
Does the D advantage of Straw close the gap?
Decision probably depends on Straw and Lukes batted ball data against Snell's pitch mix.
I would lean Lukes to keep Straw available as a late inning defensive replacement.
Bassitt just had the normal velo bump knowing he's pitching a short outing. Berrios would do the same if he was available (Jays have said he is not).
Trust me on this - if Little gets the call, Jays lose that game.
What's the status of Berrios?
I'd rather him than Little, who would be a quaking, 150 beats a minute, verge of nervous breakdown shell of a man if called to pitch in the WS.
