  1. There is no limit to the number of DPs a team can hit into in 1 game.
  2. On offense the only thing that matters is RBI.
  3. I hate waiting for game time. Drives me crazy. So I decided to take the grandkids to thus brand new zoo this morning here in Tucson. Turns out "brand new" is an understatement. Complete disappointment is what it was. They only have one animal. A dog. Yup....it was a shih tzu.
  4. You known what they say...don't pee where you tweet.
  5. So they're using Ober, Ryan, Maeda and Paddack ALL in game 1?? I'd place a lot of cash against that.
  6. No. Crazy talk. Why wouldn't you start Lopez?
  7. Five years ago I'd have agreed 100 percent. Now, I'm not sure. He SHOULD have the final say. There are plenty here, for example, who claim firing Rocco would make no difference because he isn't calling the shots. I doubt that, but I'm no longer absolutely certain.
  8. Lopez can go on full rest in both games 2 (Sunday) and 5 (Friday).
  9. I can't believe Toronto pulled Berrios. Idiotic. Berrios was dominating and had tons left in the tank. That decision was made by some math nerd somewhere probably the night prior. Analytics run amuck. But again, that's not based on post results analysis, as is your "it worked, ergo it was correct" logic. BTW those two analogies are perfect examples of the same logic. "It worked, therefore I made the correct decision."
  10. That's not true, and you know it. If I drive home drunk without getting into an accident that doesn't make it a good decision. Taking a card on 18 when the dealer has a 6 showing isn't a good idea, even if I hit a 3.
  11. Yes I'm aware of the rules. You're making my point. Nobody cares about "getting Kiermaier out of the game." Bringing Thielbar into the game meant a very high possibility he'd be facing three right hand hitters. RH hitters hit Thielbar hard. Theilbar hadn't gotten a GIDP turned behind him all season. Chapman was ?6? Inches from a game tying double. We got really lucky. Bringing Thielbar into that situation was about the worst use of his pen Rocco could have made.
  12. What I like about Correa defensively is, he makes every play he should, AND a few he shouldn't. A ground ball to SS is an out, virtually every time. That's not something that can be said for every MLB SS.
  13. So in your opinion Thielbar against a RH pinch hitter, and Chapman, with traffic on the bases is a good idea? He had multiple options.
  14. I have a huge issue with Thielbar coming in. He wasn't going to face Kiermaier, and Chapman was on deck. Right handed hitters put up a .941 OPS against Thielbar this year. We got lucky. Rocco made a pretty bad decision.
  15. Those of you bringing up the Darryl Evans pickoff in the 87 ALCS, I had the same vibe https://fb.watch/nuAcqlYrIq/?mibextid=Gd9JSz Tony Kubek and Bob Costas on the call.
  16. Gonna guess it's Pagan. Regardless, wouldn't be opposed to a crooked number here bottom 7
