  1. MSU just bled 7 minutes off the clock and zero points to show for it. Wisconsin makes that trade all day.
  2. They're up three scores at the half... I think the game plan is working just fine, personally.
  3. God, the Cardinals are exhausting: https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/27828553/st-louis-cardinals-claim-baseballs-traveling-less-postseason
  4. Millen just stopped himself short of saying that the MSU QB threw the ball too straight.... Seriously.
  5. If we’re at the point in this MLB Playoffs thread where we’re apparently comparing the word Yankee with the name of the Washington NFL franchise and think that’s a valid comparison, it might be time to shut the site down, never mind this thread. If that wasn’t clear enough, let’s bring the discussion back to baseball and the postseason games. Any further posts on what is or isn’t racist or derogatory equals a one month insta-ban.
  6. Only if they serve Sol and it's brought to the tables by David Gruber.
  7. The only one I disagree with you on. They paid Boone Logan nearly that much to sit at home last year.
  8. Pomeranz is a free agent and Knebel is coming off a major arm injury. Seems like a bad/dangerous plan to me. Hader is cheap and effective. A couple of years from now? Totally on board with trading him. But trading from a position of weakness to address another weakness doesn’t make sense to me.
  9. Must burn clock here...
  10. Wow. That’s a couple of really bad breaks there.
  11. Clearly let up as they took the big lead. Also, the injuries are becoming absurd.
  12. Calling Dak Prescott a Pro Bowl caliber QB is laughable. Without Elliott, he’s a more mobile Kirk Cousins.
  13. This opens up a bit of a lane for some really shady stuff, though. Doesn't 'pay for marketing purposes' automatically give a leg up to places like Oregon (Nike) and Maryland (Under Armor), where they can just have their large benefactors that run those athletic apparel companies sign guys to 'marketing' deals to lure them there? I agree with hiandtight, there needs to be serious oversight and regulation of this.
  14. Then who is pitching out of our bullpen? By my count, the only reliable-ish guy under contract next year other than Hader is Suter, and we're hoping that his September performance carries over. The team had a massive bullpen problem this year, and trading one of the best pieces from that even if it fills a different hole is just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
  15. I guess I'm surprised by this feeling. I've gone to both Packer and Badger games for years, and I've long felt that the atmosphere at Packer games is actually better. Maybe that has changed some over the past few seasons where they haven't lived up to expectations, though. I think there are noticably more visiting fans that make the trip and find tickets. I do wonder if they'll end up cracking down on perpetual sellers at some point. It seems very unfair to have a hundred-some thousand people waiting for tickets, while some guy sells his grandfathers old tickets that he inherited every year with no intention of going himself.
  16. I 100% think that When Hader came in, the intention was for him to pitch both innings. I’d be astounded if they had any other intention at that time. The way it unfolded, I still think it was likely that he would have come back out for the ninth if they had the lead. Who else do you trust in that situation? Pray that Junior Guerra can get it done? No, they were more likely to ride the guy that got them there, IMO. I interpreted the poster that I quoted as questioning the claim that Hader was brought in to get through both innings, which he almost certainly was. The way it unfolded made it far less likely.
  17. You can disagree with the announcers, but you'd be incorrect. He was getting both of those innings. The only reason others had been closing was primarily due to days where Hader was off. Also, you know Lyles was indeed warming in the bullpen, right?
  18. I am somewhat bewildered that people are apparently willing to move on from a cheap, team-controlled reliever that was one of the only useful arms out of a bullpen that was maligned almost all year otherwise. It makes no sense at all.
  19. Minor is probably the right word to emphasize, as he was more disappointed that the Brewers and he didn't discuss a longer-term contract than anything, it seemed. As you said, it'll be interesting to see how that's handled this year when he's still got one very cheap year left.
  20. That trade is a prime example of why you don't go all-in on a team that has a CHANCE at making a run to make the playoffs. They'd have left themselves much, much better off as a franchise making 2019 Brewers-esque deadline moves.
  21. The Cards must be exhausting to be a part of. I've never in any other sport found another team so focused on doing things the 'way' they feel they should be done.... they WON this game. Focus on the joy of winning, not the anger that some dude watched his HR. YOU had the last laugh, Cards. Don't be so exhausting. It's like the co-worker we all have that freaks out anytime something comes up unplanned during their day and they can't handle it not going the way they think it should go. Calm down and move on.
  22. Most relievers, yes even the good ones, have just two pitches.
  23. What does that even mean?
