Considering your example is from 2015, lol.

Yeah, Giants/Dodgers and most of Braves/Brewers were fucking boring.... this has been far better baseball.

It's typically not a position infielders find themselves in. Everyone but the pitcher has enough distance between themselves and the plate to defend themselves from a line drive and just about everyone fielding a ball hit that hard is doing it from the side.

dodgers series is far from over.

Some of his decision making is questionable.

I don’t agree with starting Scherzer off minimal rest.

I also don’t agree with pitching Urias out of the pen.
[Reply]

That was an awesome slide.

Dude looked like Roberto Alomar.
[Reply]

Urias was pretty good out of the pen but why is he doing this? Its not game 7 and isn't Urias suppose to be starting in these games at some point?

Scherzer said his arm was dead in the 4th. I don't know if thats just to cover for his manager taking him out but... might want to think about not using the guys you want pitching 7 innings every single time you need to bring in the bullpen.

It's not like the Dodgers have a lot of options after Clayton Kershaw was lost due to an elbow injury.

Tony Gonsolin is shaky as you saw in Game 1. David Price is not on the roster.

They could have gone back to Walker Buehler on four days rest, but I'm thinking they wanted to give him extra rest after he went on three days rest in Game 4 of the NLDS. He's the pitcher with the prior Tommy John, not Scherzer.

Two bullpen games is too much stress on the bullpen.

Scherzer being the sturdy veteran, having pitched a high stress side session in Game 5 of the NLDS. To me, it wasn't too much to ask. They took him out after he made perhaps his nastiest pitch of the game on a strikeout of Orlando Arcia. Other than the flat breaking ball to Joc Pederson, I thought he was pretty solid.

The Dodgers going down 0-2 has less to do with pitching and more to do with their bats not taking advantage of scoring opportunities.

And Kyle Schwarber hits a grand slam.

This was the guy I wanted the Royals to sign for the 1B/DH position, but no.

Because, Dayton F'ing Moore.
[Reply]

The Red Sox' last two games makes it kind of crazy to reflect on the fact that in the Royals two full postseasons, Kendrys Morales was the only person who hit a three run home run (and no one hit a slam)
[Reply]

Astros might want to consider starting Greinke over some of these guys they’re throwing out there to get killed. His season numbers were fine, he has almost two decades of experience and he’s pitched in so many big games.
[Reply]

Seems the Dodgers are ready for the offseason to begin.
[Reply]

Have been since that game 5 against the Giants.
[Reply]

Not after that 3 run bomb
