Texas Rangers 2023 - They're Still Shitty?

Moving towards 10 straight road wins.

Something like 15 straight postseason games with a home run.

Losing the heart and emotional center of the lineup and one of the biggest postseason performers ever and responding with a massive offensive showing up and down the lineup.

Smoltz: "Dbacks are gonna be tough, aggressive and steal bases and really strong tomorrow!"

So is there any unwritten rule about using a position player to pitch in a ws game?

There are actual rules

Yes, position players can pitch in the MLB Playoffs. MLB established new rules for position players pitching in 2023 but none of those rules outlawed the use of a position player on the mound in the MLB Playoffs.

Certain requirements must be met as part of the new rules, though. Teams with the lead have to be up by 10 or more runs in the ninth inning to use a position player on the mound. Trailing teams, however, only have to be trailing by eight runs and can use a position player at any point.

Ok so same rules as regular season. Need to bump the lead back up to 10 to even consider it though.

I just remembered how much they pushed the big trade for their closer, and how he’s pitched in one game out of 4 and blew the save in that one. 

He was hot against NL hitters who had never seen him before. We know him pretty well, fortunately
