De Jong makes them work for it, but grounds to short.

Time to put the phone away and just relax watching the game. If something crazy happens and I happen to be awake maybe I'll get up and post about it.

Frazier, Hayes and Reynolds have now started together in only 2 of the past 6 games (33%), 7 of the past 12 games (58%) and 12 of the past 20 games (60%). And it's going to get worse. Shelton said Hayes and Reynolds will also be rested on this road trip. The road trip is only 6 games, began only 4 days after the All-Star break ended and concludes with an off day on Monday. It would be nice if Shelton put half as much effort into trying to win games as he puts into making sure his players don't have to actually play.

They probably have their own sub-analytics "rest" department
