He’s never done it before in his career, almost no one is good on three days rest. It’s not going to get postponed anyway, I think.
Guardians vs. Yankees ALDS Thread
- Thread starter DeadlySplitter
- Start date
If it's pushed, Biebs could come out of the bullpen for an inning or two if needed, I'm sure. If CLE wins, then he could still pitch Game 3 of the LCS.
Mike Hargrove doesn’t think so.
and the weather is fine in NYC. Might be some light rain but nothing they can’t play through.
Francona was pretty emphatic that the only plan for Bieber would be to start Game #1 in the ALCS if they win the next one. If the game would be postponed, Clase, Karinchak and Stephan would all have 3 days rest. Hentges and De Los Santos would have 2, and everyone else in the bullpen would have one and be available behind Civale. That's better than a tired Bieber.
Looks like it won't start on time. And I feel dirty after clicking on that tweet.

Blame @rajendra82 ... without their jinxing YED, there wouldn't have been a Game 5 and you wouldn't have had to click on that tweet
Forecast I’m looking at says light rain, .04 inches an hour. IANAM but seems like something they could play in.
I bet if rajendra was thread banned he/she wouldn't be able to jinx this game. Hmmm...
In the regular season, it is the home team who decides on postponements if the game hasn’t started. In the playoffs, do the hone clubs cede that power?
The radar tells a very different story.
I'll be shocked if this game starts before 9.

what would have happened if the players told security to buzz off?

Manager gets notified and then takes care of it. If the Manager opts to do nothing probably a fine from MLB.
I would guess the opposite actually, the longer it goes before first pitch, the drunker and more revved up people will get. I don't think it matters much either way though.
No one will notice the difference. Maybe the Guardians will get lucky and some drunk fan will force the Yankees to forfeit
I laughed out loud literally. People would lose their ever loving minds and I would be here for that!
That’s not on tonight is it? I knew the Harp in twenty seconds.
Ed oh if a rainout

I'd love it, just in time for the B's game to wrap up so I can catch both in full!
I was there for game 3 in 2018. I brought my wife and ~75 year old parents and it was pretty intense on the way in, I was wondering if I'd made a mistake. But when the sox got ahead big and early, it wasn't ugly at all--the crowd died right quick.
so weird I had to look it up. Post season numbers are pretty good

“While his regular season stats for his career aren't that impressive (90-65, 4.13 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 110 ERA+), it was in the postseason when he really shined. In 15 postseason series, he went 9-3 with a 2.55 ERA, a 1.24 WHIP and 107 strikeouts in 106 innings pitched.”
