  1. I don't get "saving" the Pinch hitter thing. You use them once per game. The runs you score on the hits they hit count the same whether those runs score in the 2nd or 7th inning. What might not occur later in the game is an opportunity with multiple men on base.
  2. Wouldn't Grandy be the CF if Cain were to get hurt? No Broxton in this series. Perez to RF and Yelich to CF. Not ideal, but it's workable.
  3. Turner is looking more and more like a zombie bum as this series goes on. His shirt is all ripped up, his beard is even more straggly (if that's possible)..... clean yourself up guy.
  4. I'm super calm right now. Super ready for the game to start, but calm. I mean, I really want them to go to the WS (obviously), but I stopped living and dying with sports wins and losses a while back. This has been a really fun run, but if it ends tonight, I feel like the team, and Counsell did their best.
  5. Repeat after me Snell is a good 3pt shooter this is a fact. Snell has a good 3 point shooting percentage. He doesn't create his own shot, he's not a stop and pop shooter. Seriously.. it seems like it takes him 3-4 seconds from the time he decides to shoot til the ball actually leaves his hands. I know it's not 3-4 seconds, but he has a brutally slow release. He needs a ton of open space to TAKE 3's, that's part of why he only takes a few per game. He doesn't distribute the ball, he doesn't rebound, he is tremendously bad at floor spacing, and he's an average to mediocre defender. That the guy can drain 40% of his wide open threes doesn't make me hate the fact he's a Buck any less.
  6. This has been way more fun for me than 2011. In 2011, we had a great team and a boob of a manager that got completely outclassed and outcoached by a much better manager. This year we have a great team and a manager that (usually!) doesn't shoot himself in the foot with idiotic decisions (just occasionally questionable ones Win or lose tonight, this has been an awesome series, and an awesome season.
  7. "should", yes. Coors has a lot of things going for it that make mediocre hitters look really good. Breaking balls don't break there. An 83 mph curveball with no break is going to be pretty easy to hit. The outfield is huge, giving outfielders a ton of ground to cover. Coors isn't just "homer friendly" because of thin air, it's got a confluence of effects that make it extremely friendly for all types of hitters. In a not-small- sample over his career, Lemaihieu is a .676 OPS hitter away from Coors (with 28 homers) and a .835 OPS hitter at Coors (with 21 homers). These are both almost 2000 PA samples. That's not a normal home/road split, that's a Coors split, and you'll find that pretty normally with a lot of long time Rockies. Arenado home career OPS 1.022, away .783 Charlie Blackmon home .983/ away 764 Cargo -- .974/.728 Just......no on Lemahieu. I want no part of a .675 OPS 2nd baseman, going into his age 30 season, who hits for little power, and is going to be demanding a pretty significant contract.
  8. I would gladly, knowingly trade one year off the end of my life for a Brewers win in a game 7 on a walk-off dinger. Preferably by Braun.
  9. If the Dodgers leave ryu in much longer to save the bullpen for tomorrlw, they are effectively punting this game.
  10. Snell has a reputation of being a good Defender because he doesn't do anything else, but he's not a good Defender. The fewer minutes he gets, the better off this team is.
  11. You can if you get there in time Again, you have to make an attempt to slide into the base and remain on the base. That slide...no way was he staying on. That is proven as he slides like 4 feet past the bag. His hand was actually still on the back of the bag.
