jmo but it probably is… *depending, of course **yes both are horrible ***do not do either of those things
-
Wow! Didnt think it could happen! Must have been nice to pitch to Judge in the 9th 😁
-
That guy needed it
-
Great call by the commentator on the Baez HR- “and now two more” as the ball is leaving the bat 🙂
-
Number #1 overall pick, finally having his best season…. Nope! Let’s turn it over to our struggling bullpen LOL
-
I think all these new StatCast managers go to sleep at night mulling over how they can one-up the last guy in being dumb.
-
Unless my memory is faulty (very probable) teams used to rally from behind in these five game series more often. I am going to go out on a limb and predict that 1 of the 4 teams facing elimination comes back to win their series.

Gameday says: Intentional walk to Judge with one out, no one on base. Really? Good lord
-
Lawrence on the last Jags drive reminded me of a Tony Romo drive, right down to the last play. (botched field goal hold in that playoff game)
-
people on the internet throw around hyperboles, but that might be one of the stupidest losses in the NFL, ever.
-
Thats the first version I saw. What a messed up world we live in.

Try as I might, I just can’t hate the Dodgers as much as I know I should. I like Betts (pro Bowler!), Freeman and Ohtani. How can you not admire Ohtani. And I cheered for them to beat the Yankees last year and they did not disappoint. I will do better!
-
I like having a big meanie to root against … although I don’t really dislike the Dodgers as much as I should.

Vikings @ Browns 10/5/25
Hosken Bombo Disco replied to nicksaviking's topic in Minnesota Vikings Talk
Yeah I just read about that and am wondering too. KOC may not have had a good angle. And it stayed end over end. Some kicks do fly in a fade, but not like that sharp. Someone somewhere should have noticed and pulled the alarms. -
Update: he just pitched the 7th, and threw 7 straight changeups to retire the first two hitters. Then threw change, change, and fastball to strike out the last guy. I dunno, man….
-
The burning question is whether Detroit’s manager will bring in the guy who only throws change ups in a tight game.
-
I would guess the Yankees come back and win that series. Toronto only has Bieber left as a pitcher and then will have to go back to Gausman for game 4.. Toronto has Scherzer but he has become a batting practice pitcher at this point.
-
My gut feeling for how this postseason would turn out is approaching zero, lol. Good thing I am not a degenerate gambler (gambling problems? Call 1-800……)
-
You may be right. I don’t know. I am skeptical and I like to look at very specific situations. For example, stolen bases. The view from 30,000 feet is that you need a SB rate to be like 75-80% successful to be worth doing. But not all caught stealings are the same. There are the CS that run you out of innings, and there are the CS that come with 2 out and 2 strikes. Sac bunts are considered awful, until you need one in the late innings and the situation calls for it. Wallner may have a good ISO but how many of his dingers were useless late inning solo shots when the game was not on the balance?

Rocco Baldelli Wasn't the Problem
Hosken Bombo Disco replied to Matt Braun's topic in Twins Daily Front Page News
I do miss the 2023-2024 years, when someone finally told Rocco about the platoon split thing, and he would start his pinch hitting shenanigans early in the game, because sometimes the game is won in the 4th or 5th inning. dontchaknow 🙂 -
Detroit is up 1-0 in the 3rd, but just had a chance for a big inning against Cleveland, a team that struggles to score runs. Feels like a “let ‘em off the hook” moment.
-
Hey! We got three extra games from this round tomorrow! Better than last year and having only one.
-
I hate it. I think it’s more of a StatCast era development & front office thing—all front offices, not just ours. Swing your swing, maximize your exit velo. Strikeouts are ok. Yada yada yada. Ok rant over. 🙃
-
He's actually been a good starter. But, yeah.
