A few observations...Tapia has hit so well in AAA but many were wondering why it has not translated...its looking like all he needs are at-bats to get going...Cargo will be sitting tonight as a reward for Tapias 4 nit night. He is definitely a catalyst in a different way than we are used to around here.

I was glad to see Marquez rebound as it puts the pressure on Senzatela and Freeland now to do the same with Gray's impending return.

I'm not sure what to say about Ottavino...his last few outings have been pretty ragged putting it mildly. He has had a pretty tough year even if his stats are not showing it with too many baserunners. McGee on the other hand is a reversal of Ottavino, as he is a totally different player than the one we saw last year and Rusin continues to be solid on every outing, as he has been the unsung hero on too many games to count.
