Finally. The matchup we all wanted.

Miz vs the mound?

At least we've got precedent with Booser so we don't sound like complainers when it inevitably clumps to shit!

Indeed. That’s definitely what has me worried about it though. Watching 2 rays pitchers have trouble with their HOME mound, and knowing the mound issues misiorowski has had in some road games this season… 😬

It did look like a mess so not saying players were wrong to be annoyed, but what's interesting to me is iirc the players polls often ranked The Trop as having one of the nicest mounds in the league. I wonder what went wrong yesterday.

Go brew crew

This ends tonight.

If brewers lose tn with miz on the mound things might get scary for the brewers.

Why push him to game 2 if you are going to play him this game?
3 days rest after not having a good outing last time doesn't look too good
Looks like a Miz vs bullpen game

I mean they weren’t planning on this being an elimination game. It’s for sure not a good spot to be in, but you gotta play the cards you have in this situation

How long has it been since Rasmussen pitched?
13. u/Allatura19 · 2026-10-28 20:41 UTC
Not a fan of this.
14. u/Rough-Echo-5193 · 2026-10-28 20:50 UTC
You need your ace tonight.
15. u/Allatura19 · 2026-10-28 21:04 UTC
This guy has had multiple reconstructive surgeries. He’s a horse, but hopefully it’s a short stint.
16. u/Chance-Farmer-4476 · 2026-10-28 21:07 UTC
Likely will be. Lately pitchers have been skipping bullpen days and throwing those pitches in live games. Rays did it with Peralta out of the pen against Cleveland.
17. u/admiralackbar98 · 2026-10-28 20:57 UTC
Not a fan of your teams best pitcher starting while down 3-1 in the WS?
18. u/Emergency-Fig-3670 · 2026-10-28 21:00 UTC
On 3 days rest after not having a good start last time. It's going to turn into a bullpen game really quick

Not a ton of choice honestly. Being able to trot Rasmussen-Peralta out for a G6-G7 would be great but sadly you’ve got to get there. Don’t think they win tonight though.
