A-Rod you're allowed to say Desomond suxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Ian Desmond suxxxxxxxxxx

I really like A Rod. Part of me wonders if him doing this stuff is to help him get into the HOF though, lol.

[Abomination]

That was really, really nasty.

[BTS]

Davis is filthy right now

[bones10]

Contreras looks like he might have a 60 IQ when he stands at the plate staring out at the mound

He's fine but for me, for such an elite hitter that he was, he really seems to preach a completely different philosophy to hitting. I bet if he were up to bat right now he'd be looking to send the ball to the moon rather than "keeping it simple", but I guess he understands not everyone has his talents and they need to do other things to make up for it.

OK, I'm not usually part of the fun police, but Contreras' celebrations over walks tonight have been embarrassing.

He was probably excited that he got away with taking a pitch that was a strike earlier in the game.

I also notice that he does multiple fist pumps for non-strikeout strike calls.

[saskjayfan]

come on rockies...let's hit the sticks.

[Brownie19]

This has been an incredible game. I f***ing love playoff baseball.

[Omar]

Cole Hamels going to give it up.

[Brownie19]

"Hamels throws him lemons and he makes lemonade" - that's the worst comment of the day from A-Rod.

 

Edit - he must be getting tired...suggesting a bunt with 1 out.

[Captain Adama]

What a horribly managed game.

 

And I despise the double switch.

[Orgfiller]

Lmfao @ the Rockies pinch hitting with Pat Valaika. Might as well just let the pitcher try his luck at it.

[Abomination]

What a horribly managed game.

 

Yeah, this is so badly done it's amusing.

I'm telling you guys, he constantly preaches for small ball. He's the total opposite of what he was as a player as a commentator.

[Abomination]

Contreras looks like he's drunk about 100 cups of coffee today.

[P2F]

This has been an incredible game. I f***ing love playoff baseball.

 

To the contrary, I feel like this is the worst playoff game I've watched in a long time.

[Captain Adama]

"Hey! Let's take out our 116 wRC+ hitter and replace him with our 9 wRC+ hitter!"

[Boxcar]

This has been an incredible game. I f***ing love playoff baseball.

 

If this is an incredible game, than literally any game in a playoff scenario is an incredible game.

 

Basically two teams insisting that the other team win.

[Boxcar]

He's just trying to get on Buster Olney's good side

[Brownie19]

Meh - I may just be really excited that playoff baseball is back. The pitching has been great...I like pitching.

[Orgfiller]

I remember that 2014 WC game, I was rooting so hard for the A's to make it but of course the Royals blooped their way to a victory as usual.

[Brownie19]

Pat Valaika was on pace for a -6 WAR season if he got 600 PAs.

 

Dem Rockies have had issues with roster management....

[KevinGregg]

What have the Cubs done that you dont like?

[Abomination]

What a play by Arenado!

[Boxcar]

It's really pretty obvious that Vasgersian is rooting for the Rockies.

[Orgfiller]

Did A-Rod just call Nolan Arenado underrated?
