2021 MLB Postseason: AL & NL Division Series Games
folly412 replied to Eye Black's topic in Archived Game Threads
Literally the four teams I was rooting against. 3/4 from last year, with the other being the Red Sox. At this point, I'm going to go for the Astros. Can't stand the org, but I'd like to see Dusty win one. Seems every team that pushed him out for not getting far enough in the postseason has been worse off after. -
Interesting that Cardinals fans are pleased by this, but other teams' fans can't figure out why. Do they think too highly of themselves, or did they actually have a better roster than most believe? Either way, I'm sure they'll hire someone we all consider to be insufferable.
-
Would we have to pay $160M of the $190M owed to move Yelich?
-
You can just double switch a gimpy Cain who gutted out 8 innings already for Taylor...why not?
-
I think the catcher could just call the pitch out loud at this point and he'd just pull a grounder to second out of it.
-
Beginning next opening day, we can start counting down from 189,500,000.
-
Lights too bright for Ashby. Urias has made some great defensive plays. Bullpen will have to make its last stand. Rough not having Suter or Williams. Instead of them covering 2-3 innings, we've got Gustave and JBJ pretending to be on the roster.
-
[sarcasm]Runs! There will be a moral victory at a minimum today![/sarcasm]
-
Hit him. Nothing like a benches-clearing, bullpen-emptying brawl to get the juices flowing and the offense to dial in.
-
Very well. I'll also opine that this is the correct decision. Burnes has started on four days rest, what, once this year? And this would be three. Lauer has been our second best pitcher in the second half, is fully rested, gives the Braves a different look and a left-hander. I'm a little confused over the focus on the starting pitcher for a team that has scored two runs in 27 innings. If we lose 4-2 with Lauer giving up all the runs, I'm not going to play the "well, maybe if Burnes shuts them down we win 2-1". I'm going to blame the offense again. The offense is only off the hook, and I'll only acknowledge the decision backfiring if it's a bad/short start and we lose 9-8.
-
Unsurprisingly, Lauer officially named the starter.
-
Much likely involved with being a coach vs. a player as well. Seems getting pummeled by the Bears indicated his team wasn't exactly inspired to play for him. Also the only way to rationalize ostracizing him for d-bag e-mails versus guys like Tyreek Hill, Kareem Hunt, Richard Sherman beating women or Aldon Smith getting 15 second chances. At least they were back quickly, where I don't believe Gruden will coach again.
-
I suppose he makes perfect sense to pick up if for some reason Pina isn't re-signed. After that, got to wonder if they risk Feliciano as the third catcher given he would be in his second option year (and is hopefully healthy). Also not sure what they think of David Fry's catching prospects at the MLB level, but he had a nice year and is an interesting super-utility player.
-
It's funny to be full-on panic mode with the starting pitcher after 2 runs in 27 innings. It's infinitely more likely we lose 1-0 tomorrow than 9-8 with the starter giving up the bulk of the runs.
-
Lauer may be the best hitter in the lineup tomorrow. Why sit him when he should probably be leading off and going full Shohei?
-
Only $188,500,000 left to dish out. [sarcasm]And $30,000 for Bucks courtside seats will go back into the community.[/sarcasm]
-
Wong picked a bad time to have a brutal series. On Base Jace should probably start at second tomorrow.
-
Lauer game 4. Burnes game 5. Absolutely. No need to make any panic moves with the pitching. Can't win if you don't score.
-
I still don't hate the decision. I hate 2 runs in 23 innings by Haines' Hackers.
-
I like it. Entire bullpen is available. Literally the best scoring opportunity of the series so far. Don't pass it up.
-
Hope to see Taylor in the lineup. Urias, Taylor, Pineapple to smoke the lefty.
-
No one I'd trust more. It's a huge asset to have him coming out of the pen.
