If you start Nunez, who do you sit? Do you sit Hanley and DH either Devers or Nunez?
I’d sit Hanley. Maybe even Pedroia, though I’d much rather have his glove in there, but they’ve both been awful in September with an OPS around .600
The OPS difference is staggering. Devers, in 2 months, is the only projected starter to have a higher OPS+ than the worst ps Astro. And the Astros have an advantage at starter, especially 2+.
I am so happy about that start time. A normal game start and I'm stuck commuting during it.
What kind of health care do you have? Don't need to answer, but my doctor's office answers the phone within short minutes.
With only 2 games on Sunday, do they really want to go up against the big part of the NFL schedule at 1:00? I can't remember what they've done in the past, but something like 4:00/7:30 would seem to make more sense.
This was my question. Are we really not going to be able to watch a playoff game unless we pay for a mlbtv subscription?
I'm not presently rooting against TV networks to lose money on baseball. I'd rather see baseball's profile rise compared to the horrible NFL.
So Sox/Astros at 4 and Indians/Yankees at 8? FOX has Green Bay/Dallas exclusively in their 4:25 window so yes it does make sense to go from that game and direct people to Indians/Yankees on FS1 right after.
This was extremely unusual, waiting on hold to make a flu shot appointment. Since I posted, I remember that I have mlb.tv on my phone, which I rarely use. Is it obvious that I'll be able to see it there, or is there an additional charge for the postseason? There's always XM radio in the car and DVR at home. I should get home for most of it.
Unfortunately, the MLB.tv subscription does not carry over for the postseason. You have to pay $24.99 for the postseason subscription. It's awful.
You should be able to get flu shot at a CVS minute clinic.
Can't imagine local games would be taken into account unless there was a conflict within the city, such as the stadiums sharing a parking lot or something to that effect. Since the series will be in Boston and the Bronx (or Minneapolis), the Browns and Texans games shouldn't matter.

Last year the MLB Network was free during the first week of the playoffs, which was when they were airing live games themselves. I would hope that's the case this year.
You do know you can go to Walgreens or CVS for a flu shot. It's not liver transplant or open heart surgery .
Holy fuck. And it's a separate subscription?.
They were dead last in baseball at 12 or 13% at throwing out base stealers. Sox were second at around 38% I believe. They absolutely should try to exploit this, since they are missing the offensive firepower Houston has.
