Episode Notes

Jeremy Affeldt and Scott Ostler delve into one of San Francisco's running themes this year - gauging fitness to play and when to use the IL. Could Willy Adames' latest back issue lead to more time for Christian Koss or, when he's up, Marcelo Mayer? Bright spots: Blade Tidwell, Carson Whisenhunt and Adrian Houser, all vying for next year's rotation, pick up the pace, plus the farm system gets some recognition.
