How could Counsell be so smart so much of the time and do something so profoundly stupid now? This makes Yost look like a genius. OLIVE DRAKE WOULD BE A BETTER OPTION RIGHT NOW.

No he wouldn't. If we win it's a brilliant move.

God the dodgers are so pouty. Grow up.

Somehow, JJ has to get this out. But I don't care what happens, going forward, JJ cannot see the ninth in the post season again.

I love this. Counsell has stones man. Stones.
"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

You gotta throw strikes and in a 3-0 count the edge is not the answer.

 

I mean, that was 4" from being a ball down and off the plate. It's a damn strike.

The other issue is you're never going to get good JJ if you always use him a little too often and a little too long. He could have been saved for tomorrow and maybe he would have benefited from 2 days of rest. They just keep forcing him out there for some stupid reason.

CC can't be afraid to bring in his closer, who has been fantastic all year, when it's 4-0.

 

He should also not be afraid to take him out when he doesn't have it.

His stuff is still sharp. So it's not like he's just awful all of a sudden or anything. Bit of a bad luck and just a hair off on locations. Still lik him overall, but just wanted the simple move. Get this over with now

Why is JJ sill pitching? The guy is a mental midget in high stress situations.

 

Well that's verifiably false based on the season he's had. But I've been worried about this happening for a while given how hard he was worked this season, blowing past his career high innings peak. I think he is fatigued and shouldn't be relied on the rest of 2018.

Never easy.

Certainly.

You're usually pretty level-headed, bummer.

 

JJ has been every bit as bad as Drake for most of the playoffs now, seriously. He is either tipping pitches or his arm is dying after a long year, but he's a gas can right now.
