the main thing with Dickey I think is climate. At Rogers Centre they can close the roof.

there's also that whole knuckleball fucks with timing thing which may or may not be real, but if it is then it makes sense to stick him between Price and Stroman.

It depends on whether Dickey has a good feel of his knuckleball that day, if he survives the first inning he tends to have it figured out, and it does fuck up the timing and the swing of opposition hitters because he just fucks up the strike zone for the hitter.

Rogers has been real dumb leaving the dome open for RA's last game.

 

[ProfessorMoran]

He'll be the long man for sure, I don't even think Hutchinson makes the post season roster.



That's what I'm thinking yes. Plus, if it's a 7 game series you get Stroman for game 7 instead of Dickey who, although he's been great lately, still relies on an unreliable pitch.

Hitch is off the post-season roster for sure, the real question is what do they do with him next year...

It's sort of like being in a relationship with someone for a few years. You ask them to marry you and they say no. There is no going back.

Hutch isn't someone we want to be married to in the post season so we shouldn't put him back in the rotation.

One of the greatest nights on MLB-GAF.

The greatest night in the history of our sport.

Drew's role will be cheerleader and waterboy. Oh and a bench warmer.

Kris Bryant played 1B, CF, RF, and 3B last night.

No.

Love how four years later, Fredi is still managing Barves.

Jays game postponed.

Tomorrow at 4:05 eastern. Single admission double header.

 

[Parch]

I don't think Buehrle should get a playoff start, but he's probably not going to be very effective out of the bullpen either. If they have to chose a long guy there are better choices, but how do you tell the vet he's not on the playoff roster? He'll be there, but he might never pitch.

I'd probably go with Price, Dickey, Stroman, Estrada. Skip Estrada if it keeps Price on his regular turn or they need Price on short rest in a key game. Maybe skip Dickey on the road.

 

[The Elite]

So if the Jays clinch after the first game they will only have 30 minutes to celebrate.

Big party after that 2nd one.

 

[DoktorEvil]

Tonight is our night.

See ya in the NLDS!

 

[zychi]

Kris Bryant played 1B, CF, RF, and 3B last night.

Abuleo Joe says he could pretty much play anywhere but P, tho Abuelo Joe said he'd never put him at risk of getting hurt at 2nd.

 

[Sanjuro]

No.

It was pretty bad.

 

[CosmicQueso]

I wish the MLB Network would do its own version of Sunday Ticket this Sunday. Just jump from game to game as things happen.

That would be the greatest afternoon ever.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

See ya in the NLDS!

I ain't scared of the Mest.

 

[Frozenprince]

MLB.tv's postseason blackouts are bullshit. I shouldn't need to use a VPN to watch games.

 

[zroid]

another single ticket double header for the jays

hopefully they clinch after the first one so guys can rest for the second

 

[Loco4Coco]

Mets will probably have more than one game postpone this week.

 

[Frozenprince]

Mets will probably have more than one game postpone this week.

Probably will have one of them just called. Which sucks I wanted 95 wins.

 

[Loco4Coco]

Unless they finish 1/2 game behind the Dodgers for HFA.

 

[Lexxism]

Yankees need to lose first before that.

 

[zychi]

Proof the Cardinals are still the worst franchise in baseball

It seems Sportsnet is showing that game since ours got rained out so I will be channeling all my available voodoo hexes

Why u do dis.

 

[Doogdogg]

Mookie looking like he'll be 5-7 WAR player for years to come.

 

[zroid]

Clinching the division on a game Stroman pitches would be too perfect

actually, who was pitching in the game that the Orioles clinched last year? would be even better if it was him again!

edit: it was Hutch. never mind. :lol

 

[Sanjuro]

Beltran with A+ defense.

 

[Malo]

Beltran is so bad in right field.

Sportsnet seems to be showing the Royals game. Guess the Yankees aren't as big of a deal for now.

 

[Dominican Power]

This team looks dead.

 

[Doogdogg]

Safe!

 

[BigAT]

Beltran is so bad in right field.

Really have to wonder at what point it's not worth it, even with him hitting well. He's a complete dud out there.

ohhh, it's actually on TSN because it's an ESPN game. that explains it

 

[Sanjuro]

What are the Yankees dewin?

 

[The Elite]

Red Sox scare me.

 

[PROh1bited]

Thank you Red Sox.

 

[jbug617]

Thank you Red Sox.

Too early. Porcello is pitching

 

[BigAT]

Welp, guess the Yanks are backing into the wild card.

 

[Malo]

Red Sox are going to be scary as hell next year.

 

[Sanjuro]

 

[The Elite]

Wow.

Red Sox scare me.

 

[DopeyFish]

Looooool

 

[Timbuktu]

Too early. Porcello is pitching

How about now? 6 runs with one out gives him something to work with.

 

[Jazzy Network]

Colon forgot to pitch again?

 

[Doogdogg]

Wow.

Red Sox scare me.

it's a fun team finally to watch. The kids are just so good.

 

[PROh1bited]

Red Sox scare me.

Wow.

Red Sox scare me.

How scared?

 

[Dominican Power]

Welp, guess the Yanks are backing into the wild card.

We've been knowing that for weeks now.
