Looks like any day when both series are playing, this one gets the prime time spotThis is a ratings bonanza compared to the ALCS. MLB must be thrilled.
Tomorrow tooBoth play on Tuesday, Wednesday, and possibly Saturday (games 6 and 7)
It's sort of the ultimate reverse lock.Game 1 is going to be extremely rough for the Dodgers as they recover from the NLDS, but in truth they are terrible against lefties and would have a tough time against Lester even fully rested. If the Dodgers somehow steal that one, it will be very surprising.
I'm with you! Geeeez. Bunt the damn ball.It's sort of the ultimate reverse lock.
I'll keep saying it until someone proves me right or wrong, but if I were Roberts, I'd bunt and steal like crazy against Lester. I genuinely don't get why teams don't do this while he legitimately cannot throw to a base. For me, this has nothing to do with my rooting interests. I just think it's sort of fascinating baseball strategy in a very unique situation.
Tito should have stopped his pitchers from throwing 12-6 curveballs to JBJ last week.You’re dealing with the same challenges and when it comes down to kicking a man when he’s down
Actually, it was reported that Tito got JBJ out with increased fastballs!!Red Sox Stats @redsoxstats Oct 12Tito should have stopped his pitchers from throwing 12-6 curveballs to JBJ last week.
He wanted to switch words around in a way that made sense only to him. But everyone would still applaud raucously.This guy oversings like Maddon overmanages
And pair-ohh-luss isn't even a word.He wanted to switch words around in a way that made sense only to him. But everyone would still applaud raucously.
Your crankiness is quite charming. Really.And pair-ohh-luss isn't even a word.
And why the fuck do we call the flag "the colors". It's a fucking baseball game. We're not looking for fucking pirates on the fucking high seas.
I'm already pissed at everything about this game.
I'm gonna have some tortilla soup and a roll to try to calm down. I love tortilla soup.Your crankiness is quite charming. Really.
I read that on Farmers OnlyI'm gonna have some tortilla soup and a roll to try to calm down. I love tortilla soup.
You lie. I followed the rules to the letter. They said, very clearly, "ain't don't put down nothing on your profile that sounds Mexican." I put "wheat" and "Charlie Daniels Band" for everything.I read that on Farmers Only
And there's the lovable partI'm trying to come to grips with the "lovable losers" who won the most games in baseball this season
He hasn't left his basement in 13 years. So I'm sure he's a member here.I wonder if Bartman is there.
No but I've got a full moon.This particular game looks to be a rout, on account of Maeda not being any good. Unless there's a miracle of some kind. Anybody got a black cat?
NoSo, if someone hits balls off the wall a lot in Wrigley, would you call them an Ivy Leaguer?
Yeah, but he's kind of busy right now being evil here. He's in my avatar.This particular game looks to be a rout, on account of Maeda not being any good. Unless there's a miracle of some kind. Anybody got a black cat?
I'm looking forward to the ring ceremony at Wrigley next year, where they invite Bartman and the fans forgive him. I'm particularly interested in the post ceremony Bartman interview where says, "Cubs fans, I apologize for you guys dumping beer on me, making death threats and forcing me to live in a tunnel off of Lower Wacker."I wonder if Bartman is there.
I've always felt sorry for that poor bastard.I wonder if Bartman is there.
The way he's pitching, in Spanish, I'd say "Miedo"Are we sure the pitcher's name is Maeda, and not Merda?
You, me and everyone except the worst of the Cubs fans.I've always felt sorry for that poor bastard.
It would be impossible for anyone to love Bartman more than Alex Gonzalez does.You, me and everyone except the worst of the Cubs fans.
Oh, and Alex Gonzalez. Alex Gonzalez loves Bartman.
