GDT (Wild Card Series)

[glory]

The Yankees should have definitely pinch ran for Goldschmidt regardless of it being a 2 run game. As mentioned a faster/better base runner could potentially change the dynamic of that inning (take an extra base, score on a fly ball, etc). It matters. Boone was a slave to his team’s analytics tonight. Pulling Fried when he did was absurd. JS likes going to the bullpen as soon as possible too but I think even he would have waited for a base runner first in that spot, I guess we will see in the DS.

The Yankees aren’t out of it, Rodon/Bello favors the Yankees, and they have Schlittler (or however you spell it) going in Game 3 if it gets there. Ideal scenario for the Jays would be the series going 3, so let’s hope.

You can basically copy and paste the same posts on a losing game day for any team.  Same thing for wins.  I still read them though.

any available replays that we can watch of the bos/nyy  game?   or at least the 9nth?

mlb tv is blackedout.  arhg

In all seriousness though, the first three match ups and likely this last one were a treat to watch with very solid pitching duels from all team’s Aces.

Cincy making it was a nice story but the Mets vs Dodgers was the better match up for the majority.

I like how easy it is to pick a team to root for last minute and enjoy any game, see some new players we dont normally see

[G-Snarls]

Mookie almost doubled the lead 

[hanton]

Teo!!!!!

[hanton]

...that was belted.....

[Spanky__99]

I didn't expect Hunter Greene to s*** the bed.

[hanton]

this is not an easy lineup to pitch to

[G-Snarls]

Yeah 

The Reds have no business being here 

[Alejandro Murphy]

Teo….that infectious smile and such a positive attitude.

Nerves probably on the biggest stage.

Greene born and raised in Los Angeles.

tough for him 

[hanton]

um Conforto is not in the starting line-up.  Not a surprise because he absolutely s*** the bed in the regular season.  Must have been a difficult conversation though...

[Masterbather]

Cincy as threatening as an annoying house fly to the Dodgers.

[philly30]

Reds are overmatched, only reason they are here is because the mets are a giant turd

My brother called him Shitler earlier today when I was talking to him and now I will never see it any other way.

I will never understand why they didn't DFA him and just brought up Ryan Ward who had an insane Season in AAA. The Dodgers have always been insanely loyal to veteran players. They kept Chris Taylor forever. They do the same now with Kike Hernandez. And Conforto despite being one of the worst offensive players in Baseball this Season. They still keep him.

[Jays24]

I miss Teo so much man lol

Teo dragged 2 of my fantasy teams out of contention, he was s*** in the regular season.

No guarante he would have hit in the majors, look at Outman - mashed in AAA but was lost in the majors; difference is Outman is a good outfielder so they stuck with him for a while.  Ward swings like Muncy though, I found that pretty interesting.  Atkins should give Fried man a call  - Ward looks like Horwitz with a ton more power

[Stangstag]

I hope the Reds at least put up a fight in game 2. Gotta have a close game and get into that Dodgers bullpen

I think a lot of teams wish they traded any prospect package the White Sox wanted for Crochet. 

lol... thanks tips.

[Jonn]

Well we got 3 good games today and this pile of s***.

[hanton]

I mean the Dodgers are good but the Reds have no business being in the post season.
