And the easy 2nd guess was why was Severino pitching in the 4th, he had nothing last night.

And Booney's is rightly catching heat for the late hook on Severino and his choice to put out fire with the gas of Lynn.

heh

GLS.

Now that's a rejoinder Red State Ward would envy.

Brief, meaningless, and largely irrelevant to the discussion. 

Most baseball fans, pundits, kibbitzers, basically anyone with an understanding of the game, understand the 2nd guess as a part of the baseball experience.

But for reasons unknown, you don't.

I firmly believe Cleveland will become the first team to come back from an 0 - 3 deficit in an ALDS.

They have the skipper with the experience and temperment to do it.

In 1975 the Phillies were 7 out with 6 to go.  Danny Ozark insisted the Phillies still had a chance.

Graceless.

Still haven't won anything, douchebags.

Duh.

My comment has nothing to do with having won the series and everything to do with a certain person's anti-10D obsession. (It is less pervasive than your Boston Obssession Syndrome, but still too present.)

Love those NY Giants, too.

I think when all is said and done a baseball manager really has one thing to do: knowing when to pull a pitcher. 




heh

as Andujar and McCutcheon hit the bench tonight.

Astros about to close out Tribe.

10-2 in 8th.

Pretty good choice at +250 (to win AL)

If you can get Astros +250 jump on it. I suspect thats an old #.



heh

yeah, like when I stated the bet back in April.

GLS...and the game isn't over, yet:


https://www.mlb.com/news/cc-sabathia-struggles-in-game-4-of-alds/c-297518200

Sabathia left the game after allowing three runs on five hits and two walks, striking out one batter and hitting another. With their season on the line, the Yankees went to their bullpen to open the fourth, but some will surely wonder whether Boone should have had a quicker hook in an elimination game.

Poor sports.

Bottom line, you lose because the other team was better.

You couldn't handle losing and blamed Grady Little, and this guy and others can't handle losing, and are already blaming Boone.

Sad.

Sale coming in for the 8th.

Gutsy move.

Opinions?

It makes me nervous, but I think I was nervous, anyway - and who did I expect him to bring in?!

I am less nervous about his pitching the 8th, now.
