  1. Can we get a bench shot of the steam coming out of Kevin Cash's ears?
  2. This is EXACTLY what game 161 and 162 are supposed to be like.
  3. Sept 29 (7:07pm) Bichette - 1 Point - Vladdy - 1 Point - Abomination Springer - 2 Points - Candy Maldonado Belt - 2 Points - JaysAllMighty Varsho - 4 Points - Omar Chapman - 4 Points - Kirk - 5 Points - Biggio - 5 Points - Kiermaier - 7 Points - Jonn Off the bench: 10 Points -
  4. That's just hilarious. I mean, at this point you can't do anything other than laugh.
  5. Giving the kiss of death to the bench. Hopefully that means someone else hits a home run today! At this point, I'll just be happy to see any run at all. Sept 28 (7:07pm) Bichette - 1 Point - Vladdy - 1 Point - Springer - 2 Points - JaysAllMighty Belt - 2 Points - Candy Maldonado Varsho - 4 Points Chapman - 4 Points - Kirk - 5 Points - Biggio - 5 Points - Kiermaier - 7 Points - Off the bench: 10 Points - Abomination

  7. Yeah, but Texas and Seattle play each other 6 times too, so one of the teams we're running against will lose each of those games.
  8. I don't like this move. With 2 outs, yes. Not with 1.
  9. They both use a 3rd party service (or multiple ones I think).
  10. Bichette - 1 Point - Springer - 2 Points - Schneider - 2 Points - Chapman - 4 Points - Merrifield - 5 Points - Kirk - 5 Points - Biggio - 5 Points - JaysAllMighty Kiermaier - 7 Points - Abomination Horwitz - 8 Points - Off the bench: 10 Points -
  11. Someone remind me tomorrow to look up the ump's score for this game!

  13. We're not saying you never intentionally walk him, you just don't put the tying run on base and winning run at the plate for free late in the game. In other situations that come up, you absolutely walk him. With regards to the original Bonds analogy, I guess if it was like Bonds followed by a pitcher with no one left on the bench, maybe you'd do it? That's certainly not the situation with Devers followed by Duvall though.
  14. Still no (although I realize some managers approached that particular situation differently).
  15. You never, ever put the tying run on base for free late in the game, especially with less than 2 outs and a left on left matchup. You make them earn it.
  16. You don't walk him in that situation. That would be a terrible idea.
  17. To be fair, they probably only have time to look at one angle in slow motion once before the manager has to make a decision. I suspect Schneider is just more aggressive on challenging the close calls, especially when it's late and there's not much to lose by doing so.
  18. Are we renewing this league or moving it over to Fantrax?

  21. Vladdy must really, really hate worms.
  22. Fantrax has some interesting new categories. Just throwing these out as possibilities (not saying we should necessarily do them. I actually kind of like the simplified categories): Wins -> Wins + Saves HR, SB -> HR + SB, add something (some form of total bases maybe?) Hits -> HBBHBP (hits + walks + hbp) Holds -> IRS+H (inherited runners saved + holds, which would elevate closers slightly as well)
  23. That devalues all relievers further though. I'm not sure that's necessarily good.
  24. Yeah, I don't like that send with none out. 2 outs, sure, go for it. It DID take a perfect play by Texas to (maybe) nail him though.
