    I think Suter was the best choice. It didn't work, but the guy's been great in short stints (and good in longer ones pre-surgery) for going on a year now. Plus, the Dodgers are worse against lefties. Didn't work. Happens.

    Slugfest in Cleveland. Really hoping that series gets pushed to 3. 8-6 Yankees. Can't walk Muncy twice.
  3. Cool Hand Lucroy
    I think the speed is such a big part of it. When runners are on, it is much more normal for the hitter. No idea of the numbers back that up, but a theory.
  4. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Alright, time to get Suter.
  5. Cool Hand Lucroy
    To me, it just feels like baseball isn't enough to be interesting. Trying to force atmosphere onto something that should be inherently dramatic.

    The Dodgers are so good. I know totally different sports, but I think the blueprint for beating the Twins and Dodgers this year is just make them feel pressure a la the NCAA tournament. That was the Cubs in the playoffs for ages.

    Turner yelling "back" made me think maybe Sogard got that one. Then I remembered...Sogard.
  8. Cool Hand Lucroy
    A seed. He's got a nice swing. Just never found it. I think he will have some value next year.
  9. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Always wondered if you could get away with swinging at strike 3 after it rolls by the catcher.
  10. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Interviews in the field=very stupid. Is MLB this desperate for "engagement"? And I was just going to say it felt more like October than I thought.
  11. Cool Hand Lucroy
    It's all part of the strategy. Make Buehler sit around.
  12. Cool Hand Lucroy
    That could have been a whole lot worse.
  13. Cool Hand Lucroy
    I mean, credit to the Dodgers. Laying off close pitches. Balls. But close.
  14. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Thought that would be deep enough...
  15. Cool Hand Lucroy
    I mean, those aren't strikes. They just have been all year.
  16. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Also, the Cardinals played like 44 fewer innings than every other team. That's basically 5 games worth of outs they didn't have to get. Edit: plus the two games they didn't have to make up.
  17. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Yeah, the Williams news is...not good. But good not to risk anything at this point. I think it's Topa and/or Rasmussen, and we'll go from there. Give them a shot and hope.
  18. Cool Hand Lucroy
    My big question is how Topa and/or Rasmussen will be deployed. I think ideally, you'd want Suter for at least three. I think Hader/Williams try to cover 3 innings too, if there's a lead. The middle part will be Yardley at some point, and then who knows.
  19. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Buehler hasn't thrown more than about 70 pitches in like a month. Maybe the Crew can chase him.
  20. Cool Hand Lucroy
    I miss doubles. Miss guys with gap power. Lyle Overbay is an all-time, kind of underrated favorite hitter.
  21. Cool Hand Lucroy
    I feel for the Twins. What a brutal, brutal way to lose. 17 consecutive playoff losses is now a solely held North American, major sport record. The Blackhawks lost 16 playoff games in a row in the 70s and 80s. I find it just amazing that both of those streaks have occurred in the two sports where you'd think they'd be least likely. Playoff baseball games feel like they are always around 50-50. Hard to believe.
  22. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Count me aboard the nothing-to-lose train. Might as well win the whole thing, I guess. And, hey, if we can just shut the Dodgers out for 18 straight innings, I'm like 60 percent confident we'll sweep.
  23. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Well, Pagan got it done. I'll say this: If the Giants get one, I hope they get two. The theatrics of extra innings deciding this things would be too much.
  24. Cool Hand Lucroy
    And all eyes turn to the bay...
  25. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Would be nice to get the tying run to the plate...Garcia is way past due...
