US need Skenes to go 6, Bednar 7th and Mason Miller the last 2 innings.

Anything short of that is inviting DR to crush them and they've been ultra patient at the plate.
The BP is ass, but Skenes starting, and our bats makes it a competitive game on paper. Obviously DR’s lineup is on fire, but our lineup is arguably just as good, it’s just that the big guns(Harper; Raleigh, Judge) haven’t really done shyt.

If Skenes is still on a pitch count, I don't anticipate him pitching more than 4 innings. Then if Joe Ryan is available they can throw him out there for 2-3 innings.

This US lineup just doesn't put the ball in play enough for my liking. And the infield defense has been pretty poor.
