Considering Loup's performance in high leverage situations this season, my preference is I don't want him facing a RHB bat in a tie game, when that one swing can lose you the game. Obviously, there is no right or wrong answer here. The argument you present is a valid one as well, since you don't know how long the game can go. -
Hoover is available, and possibly one of Grimm or Barrett. Shoot me an offer.

All damage has been done against right handed bats who crush LHP. Sure it won't continue going forward, though when you are in a tie game and one swing can lose you the game like what just happened, Loup shouldn't be in there.
-
Yeah he's been awful in high leverage situations so far this season. That could change year to year. Otherwise he has been solid. Regardless, in a tie game where one swing can win the game for the Mariners, Loup shouldn't be in there against a right handed bat (all 6 HR's given up this season have been against right handed bats) when the Jays have Hendricks in the bullpen.
-
His K/BB ratio has been superb. He tends to struggle against RHB and in a tie game where one pitch can decide the game, he shouldn't be there facing a RHB. All 6 HR's given up have come against RHB. Liam Hendricks should have been in that spot. I know its a small sample, though according to FanGraphs leverage index this season, Loup has a 4.10 xFIP in high leverage situations. Otherwise, he has been great.

He hit a HR just now. -
This thread is hilarious. I've never seen so many posters snap at like every play/decision made by players/management etc. I guess we're all back on the Carrera bandwagon?

He just made a nice catch. -
He hit that HR yesterday though...

I'm sure being a DH has helped A-Rod greatly. It's likely just a one season thing, I don't see A-Rod hitting this way next season. We've seen a bunch of vet bats who've had a rejuvenated year in their late 30's and then not following up those performances the following season (e.g. Vladdy with Texas in 2010, Berkman with St. Louis, Beltran with St. Louis).

Did they make the postseason last year?

I have no clue why the Mariners are still pitching Rodney in high leverage situations lol.
-
Gibbons just had a hunch
-
lol

Hamels no-hitter! Possibly his last start with the Phillies as well.
-
Unless the Jays go far into the postseason, there won't be any baseball games. If the Yankees make the World Series, then you can fly down easily to NYC (only 1 HR flight) to catch a game, though tickets would be super expensive. Pittsburgh is quite close as well (5-6 HR drive). Again, it depends on if these teams make it far into the postseason. For other sports, you can probably catch an Argos game or TFC game. As well, the Leafs start up in October and could probably catch a Raptors exhibition game.

Randal Grichuk has been pretty awesome! Can never go wrong with a True Card!

Happy Carlos Carrasco vs. Chris Sale day!

He's showing glimpses of his glory days with the Mets tonight. He was an exciting player to watch back then.

Nice Navarro!
