    Defense is the biggest difference between these two teams. I hope that's a bit of foreshadowing.

    Atta boy Spanky. Go Jays!!!

    I recall it happening in the regular season from time to time and players knew that it was going to happen in the postseason, so you would think guys like Bumgarner made some kind of preparations and had an alternate workout schedule for short rest starts. Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't have intimate knowledge of their training regimes.

    He made the Biggio prediction in jest and still nailed it. Definitely the best set of predictions so far.
  5. Grant77
    1. Really close on Biggio. If not for his poor April, it would be correct. 2. Well I f***ed that up 3. Nailed it 4. Some lists will definitely have him top 50. He's right in that range. I've had some real stinkers in previous iterations of this thread. This is definitely one of my best.

    Berrios was poor in the second half in general, but it depends what split you want to take. I just figured it would be Bassit because he has been so consistent, but we'll see how it goes. I think it’s clear they like Berrios better against lefties and think his stuff might play up if he's limited to 70-80 pitches.

    That's part of it, but a lot of it has to do with lack of preparation for that kind of thing and reluctance to risk injury. I think Gallen on 3 days is their best option for game 1 (perhaps not overall), but neither side is willing to take the risk at this point.

    If this was even 10 years ago, both would be going on short rest without question. Times sure have changed. It will be interesting to see how many teams do that this postseason.
  9. Grant77
    A little surprising considering how good Bassit has been lately, while Berrios has slipped a bit in the second half. The former would surely be the choice against another team, but I think it's a matchup play against a lefty heavy lineup.

    The Cubs missed the playoffs with Bellinger, I'm sure you know he"s no longer on the Dodgers. Pretty great brain fart though haha.

    This year's Blue Jays were the first team in MLB history to beat every other team in a season. The Orioles also did it, but a bit later. That's a cool stat. I never noticed or heard anything about it.

    His personality has Boston written all over it.

    They are supposed to play a simulated game today and evaluate it from there. Correa and Polanco are both injured, but expected to be active. Royce Lewis and Byron Buxton it seems less clear. All of these guys outside of Polanco haven't played in some time, so it's an aggressive strategy.
  14. Grant77
    If it is true, it doesn't really matter. It's not like basketball where you want your bench guys to rah rah throughout the game.
  15. Grant77
    I think Brewers Dodgers would be one of the best possible series in the playoffs. Very evenly matched in my opinion.
  16. Grant77
    The Twins roster is going to be interesting, with some key players injured. Correa is expected to be back, Royce Lewis is unknown, and Byron Buxton is unlikely to play. There's going to be some serious rust either way (I hope, anyways).
  17. Grant77
    With the Twins being heavy on lefty hitters and weak on lefty pitchers, we will have to give extra consideration to guys like Richards, Ryu, and Horwitz.
  18. Grant77
    If Jackson accepts the assignment, is he still eligible to pitch in the playoffs?
  19. Grant77
    The team needed to choose a player who wasn't going to make the playoff roster in order to make a spot for Parsons. He's been a bubble player all year. Unfortunate for him, but hardly a 'dick move'. I hope he returns next year.
  20. Grant77
    Green and Espinal are locks in my view. Green is better than Garcia and you can't go with no backup SS. I like Eden for one of the other 3 spots. The rest might depend on matchups.
  21. Grant77
    Castillo got several calls in his favour and still couldn't get it done. I was with John Smoltz. I expected a long night for Rangers hitters with all of those calls going against them and Castillo's elite stuff.
  22. Grant77
    I think a lot of people do. That's unfortunate.
  23. Grant77
    This is most dead I've ever seen the forum for the biggest game in several years. Very sad.
  24. Grant77
    Ryu made really nice pitches on the hits to Arozarena and Paredes. He's got good location and decent velo today. Just tip your cap to good hitting.
  25. Grant77
    You're forbidding me from discussing a variation of the question on this forum? The answer is the OBP guy with average speed in an average lineup. There's not much more to discuss on that end.
