I like that all games start at the same time tomorrow.

 

[the tourist]

Damn.

 

[Phantom Dreamer]

Barry Bonds out as Marlins hitting coach.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Rick Renteria. Seems like a good guy.

I want the Red Sox to beat the Indians.

I want the Red Sox to beat the Indians.

So do I.

 

[phanan]

Yeah, me too.

 

[DaveC]

can't wait to watch how the blue jays blow this one in the last two innings. #torontosports

Because Toronto

 

[Hewson]

Did I just hear that intentionally walking a guy with no outs and a runner on 2nd in the bottom of the 9th in a tie game was an "unusual move"?

 

[gump]

Yo Save rule.

 

[phanan]

Not using Britton in that game was mind boggling.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

yah, I'm kind of shocked by that as well...

should be a pretty dull series against the Rangers now, no previous animosity or bad feelings there, no sir...

 

[Hewson]

Showalter managing completely by the book, not using his closer on the road until/unless he has a lead.

At least Britton will be fresh for game 2 of the series....oh wait...

Sometimes the book needs to be tossed out.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Syndergaard Bumgarner in a double elimination game? Yes please.

That book has a 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th editions. Showalter only read the first.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Bumgarner is out of his mind.

 

[brooklynmike]

Wow

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Conor Gillaspie: DFA'd by the White Sox in 2015, a postseason hero in 2016. What a world.

 

[Hewson]

Cubs must be happy Bumgarner isn't available till game 3.

 

[speedracer]

Tito managing like it's 2004.

Could hardly sleep last night, I'm so excited.

Here's to at least not getting swept like back in aught 7

 

[LemonMelon]

Feels bad man

 

[LemonMelon]

Holy fuck, playoff Kershaw came out of nowhere to join us.

And aught 8.

 

[LemonMelon]

This became the pitching duel everyone expected as soon as Scherzer and Kershaw left the game.

 

[bono_212]

Pheeew.

 

[Hewson]

Don't give Jon Lester 5 yrs and $120 Mil cause he's 30.
Give 30 year old David Price 7 yrs and $217 Mil one year later.

Good business plan.
