  1. Team is ridiculous. This is some of the most fun baseball I've ever watched.
  2. Just discussed it pre-game along with his history with the org (started back in '81), completely straight-faced. A pro and a boss.
  3. This might be the last time we get a Dan Shulman and Buck Martinez broadcast with the news about Buck. Sucks hard. Been watching them since the 90s on Labatt Blue Jays Baseball on TSN.
  4. Kirk sat yesterday and Chapman the day before. This is probably just preventative maintenance. All of those guys have injuries in their recent past. A's are a perfect series for early rest to compensate for short ST.
  5. Cortes looks like he stole the moustache off of Chapman's face.
  6. And a 2020 Wild Card banner in the rafters? Can't tell for sure.
  7. I think Springer DHing all that time was probably a bad use of the DH anyway. The Gurriel situation is a bit different in that the season was down to the wire and before his hand got stepped on, Gurriel was the team's best hitter. Then again, maybe the DH rotation doesn't help much either and the core guys are otherwise very durable.
  8. I don't think mistakenly slotting a beat-up, "80%" Springer into the DH-role means the DH rotation doesn't work. Most of the lineup stayed remarkably healthy, so would that not be evidence that "getting guys off their feet" over a 162-game run has value?
  9. I really just meant fifth. They're not behind the Orioles. Has any WS champ ever only qualified for fifth in another division was the intent behind what I wrote.
  10. Has there ever been a WS champ who would literally be in last place had they finished their season in the AL East?
  11. So pumped to be cheering for Jethro Tull in the World Series Go Braves
  12. I can get behind the Braves being in the big show. Likeable guy Freddie Freeman is the perfect hero we need to vanquish the Astros.
  13. I haven't watched this series at all, so I am questioning the use of Eovaldi last night. Why was that their move? It obviously cost them the game (which could have happened to anyone, so whatever), but the extra downside is now their game 6 starter might be gassed too?
  14. Should a rule be added re: the Renfroe thing? A ground-rule triple? Same rule as GRD but with one base added as punishment for losing the ball out of play. It would be about as costly a thing to happen besides a home run. What would the downsides be?
  15. There's a dude dressed like a skeleton in the third base seats. What a genius
