  1. Do you PH for Freeland here if you get guys on? Tough call
  2. I guess that’s why you pull him. Nice AB from Happ
  3. Freeland is dealing, but these are subpar ABs from the Cubs
  4. That statcast broadcast on the Deuce is awesome
  5. A’s will be bullpenning it. Liam Hendricks gets the first go.
  6. Is bad luck a good reason? It’s baseball, weird shit happens. The 2016 Rangers won 95 games with a +8 run differential for example. Sometimes you can’t explain it.
  7. 91 wins is still nothing to sneeze at, even if it’s not the 100+ wins everyone else has. I truly think there is a mental aspect to being locked into the 3 seed for almost the entire season and not having much to play for. But talent wise, there’s no question their playoff roster is just as good as the other AL teams.
  8. I wouldn’t say they were pretty average, they had a +170 run differential which was just behind the Yankees. They also have had Donaldson for only a month, and gave 19 starts to Plutko/Tomlin who won’t factor in the playoffs. I do wonder if not being challenged caused them to be complacent though. Agreed that the Red Sox top 4 is right there. I like EE over Moreland/Devers however
  9. Anyone picking the Astros is betting against history. There’s a reason few teams repeat
  10. Yankees over Red Sox in 4 Indians over Astros in 4 Brewers over Rockies in 5 Dodgers over Braves in 3 Indians over Yankees in 7 Dodgers over Brewers in 6 Indians over Dodgers in 7 Picking the Indians because I believe they have the best group of starters in the playoffs, and Lindor-Ramirez-Donaldson-Brantley-Edwin top of the order is also best in the playoffs. Their bullpen will blow a few games though
  11. Not to go all Mack Brown here, but limiting explosive plays will be key to the game. The last 15 years it always seems like there’s 1+ play a game where a receiver is wide the hell open down the field. Letting them have the short stuff and making the tackles will be a winning strategy. Same thing with the runs, let the Ewok have the 5 yard runs, but we can’t have him going for 20.
  12. Freeland to start on short rest tomorrow for the Rockies
  13. This seems bad
  14. Yikes Kenley don’t do it
  15. Lester announced as the starter tomorrow for Cubs
  16. You obviously don’t want to give up, but the offense looks lifeless and your starter is already out of the game. Dodgers win % now close to 95%. Put in a long guy for the last 3 innings, see if you can get something going, but otherwise start prepping for tomorrow. Aka don’t pitch Adam Ottavino today
  17. Last thing Rockies want to do here is burn the bullpen
  18. We very well may see these two teams play again on Thursday
  19. Filth
  20. Very stupid
  21. 3 hits for Arcia has to be a season high?
  22. Terrible game for Javy
