[WBT 20884]

interesting, looked like he wanted no part of correa

[clapclapclap 9000]

Chance for redemption

[Guest]

Intentional walk to get to wooooo?

 

Probably not a bad choice.

Would McCormick even be a downgrade to Reddick at this point?  This dude sucks.

Bring on the Chas!

[UTexasFight 9788]

In hindsight, putting Reddick behind Correa maybe not the best idea...

 

[Guadaloopy 11129]

Way to put your fingerprints all over this game, Reddick.   

[UTexasFight 9788]

Good ol playoff baseball.

3.5 innings in 1 hr, 40 minutes 

[HillaryFan420 121]

Just bench him in favor of Diaz.  Show some balls Dusty.  

[Guadaloopy 11129]

This is the slowest 1-0 game I’ve ever seen.  

[UTexasFight 9788]

Can we hire Beltran under the guise of a Twins employee to steal some fucking signs tomorrow?

[Wulaw Horn 19560]

Yeah man, Reddick is wearing the goat horns today big time. 

[Wulaw Horn 19560]

But by the by- Bregman has to get to third last inning or die trying.  It's a 1-1 game if he makes it there as Yuli drives him in. 

[Bojack 2087]

I'm an Astros fan and I follow pretty closely but not as closely as some on this thread, I'm sure.  Has Reddick ever gotten a hit?  

[UTexasFight 9788]

We bust it open this inning

It would have been out number 2.   Buxton was saying “I wish a MFer would.”

This one was rather large

[Gourmand 7778]

man you fuckers keep talkin shit on Reddick

[Honeysucklerose 1006]

I’m ready to be put out of my misery

[WBT 20884]

This is dumb.  Looks like we really learned our lesson from pulling Greinke too early in Game 7.  

Framber should be starting tomorrow.

I really hate to agree with Eduardo on anything but this is definitely straight out of the Rays playbook.

Edited September 29, 2020 by WBT

[elfenix 34658]

are you saving greinke for the 7th inning of game 3?  wtf?

[clapclapclap 9000]

Hey Marwin, you got something in your beard.

[kevwun 16269]

I can't even begin to fathom this reasoning.  He knows it's game 1 right?

[WBT 20884]

And if we were going to do this, why the fuck did we throw Lance on Saturday after we'd already clinched, ensuring that he can't go until a hypothetical Game 3.

[clapclapclap 9000]

Go to the dugout, get a drink, then sit crossed legged, Framberlamps.

[UTexasFight 9788]

Why the fuck is our best pitcher in in the middle of game 1 when we are losing? 

[UTexasFight 9788]

But hey, we picked up dusty’s option after  3 games this year

Game 3?  I like your optimism.

[UTexasFight 9788]

This is Dallas Keuchel game 5 2015 LDS all over again 

 

except it’s game 1.

The pessimist in me makes me think ownership/GM is considers next season a wash still or the start of the rebuilding process.

We never should have hired him to begin with but no way this is Dusty's call.

Should be a fun postgame presser listening to dusty try to explain “his” thought process for pulling Greinke

It's acceptable to make the second out of the inning at 3rd base.  It's worth the risk b/c of the groundball or sac fly that can get a run in.  that ball hopped 18 times in the infield. Bregman should have given it a go. 

[Scraps 13745]

When we score 0 runs this game it isn't going to matter who was pitching 

[UTexasFight 9788]

Click feeding Eduardo stats now 

[clapclapclap 9000]

Ridiculous that they have to wear a mask if they are sitting in the stands with no one within 50 feet.

Nice thumbs up, though.

That’s so lip readers can’t see all the four letter words Grienke has been spewing non stop this entire inning

[Guadaloopy 11129]

Two of those for Bregs today.   Nice.  

[UTexasFight 9788]

It was a good run espn

But you get the mute treatment when you start showing Bauer quotes

I stopped listening innings ago, Ford and Sparks only.

[Scraps 13745]

comparing batting averages from 2017 to 2020 is so laughable.
