matt b Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Andrew Miller is really good. Everything is coming up Milhouse. Figure if the Tribe can take 1 of the games in Toronto we'll be in great shape heading back to Cleveland. These 1, 2 run games are going to be the death of me.

Jaxom 1974 Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I don't think anyone who loves baseball cannot say this run up to, and the post season itself has been all kinds of awesome. We still need things to end correctly, with the Cubs crushing the Indians in 4 in the World Series, but there hasn't really been a clunker of a game yet in any series.

Eh, I know I'm biased, but I thought both ALDS series were pretty boring. No drama with a sweep really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly being squeezed, but compared to last year's ridiculous ALCS calls, I'll take it and own it; we're plain getting beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No drama with a sweep really. Yep, the Red Sox series mostly sucked. Even knowing they had shaky pitching going in, the hitters failed to deliver. Too aggressive and too many "didn't pull it back soon enough" strikeouts in game 1 and then too tentative in game 2. It sucked. But Cleveland pitched well and Tito got to burnish his reputation again, which I think he deserves. I hate the way the team treated him on the way out.

Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Kershaw is going tonight on 2 days rest? Okay, gotta call Roberts out on that one. This is a 7 game set, no need to panic. And Kershaw is not Bumgarner, I don't care what any of you Dodger fucks have to say about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 When Gonzales got that hit I squeeled with joy and delight. Such a shame about what followed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, World Series, but it's a team sport. No one is pitching in a vacuum. If Roberts wants him twice he needs to go now, no? That's not panic. Everyone wants their ace twice.

He could slot him in Game 3 and still get him twice, without rushing him. Cy Youngs are nice, but they don't equate to playoff experience, I'm afraid. Kershaw is an amazing pitcher. He might be a better pitcher than Bumgarner, granted. What he's not (or at least not proven to be) is a horse that you can ride hard and put away wet. And he hasn't had nearly as much postseason success as Bumgarner. I think this looks like a desperation move. I don't see it turning out well.

I really hope it backfires spectacularly.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaxom 1974 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Clayton Kershaw is undoubtedly an amazing pitcher, but does he have to look so sweaty and grungy when he does it...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrion Lannister Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Better score a run or two here. I don't like the odds of clinging to this 1-0 lead for the next four innings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argonath Diver Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Always odd thinking that I grew up listening to Jack Buck's voice on a tinny little radio my dad had, and idolized the man as one of the greatest parts of my childhood, only to find his son an insufferable clod.
