2017 World Series

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I want the Astros to win, but I have to admit both pitchers getting bombed in the first 2 innings is the funniest possible outcome

[Sammy Sofa]

As god as my witness, Brian McCann needs to get run over by a horsefeathering tractor before getting to win a WS.

[Soul]

He runs like there’s a sack of corn tied to his ankles jeebs

[UMFan83]

Yu think this will lower Darvish's value this offseason?

[Soul]

GOOOONE!!

[Cubswin11]

I want to see Kershaw come in next inning and get bombed now

[Soul]

Darvish is such trash. Game 3 is a mystery to me.

[Brian]

wait, is he using his set up man in the 2nd inning of game 7 for 1 out? Or will he bat?

 

edit: I guess he's hoping for 7 from Kershaw & Jansen.

Not a joe buck fan, but he was much louder and more “into it” when the cubs scored last year game 7 vs what he sounds like tonight for the Astros

[Soul]

I can’t see McCullers lasting long

2 straight bad outings for Darvish. Going into age 31 season, what’s he looking at for a contract - 3 years $45M guaranteed + option?

If that's it, sign him in a heartbeat and hope he recruits Otani.

I mentioned this in another thread, but think Lester money, maybe a bit more.

I don't think he'll get that high unless there's been more inflation than I am factoring in. He has more of an arm health and durability question than Lester did. For what it's worth, he definitely won't have Lester's reputation for big game pitching, either.

It's 3 years later, and a weaker SP market.

I think he gets closer to Cueto’s deal than Lester’s deal.

When you account for the value of Cueto having an opt-out, they aren't terribly dissimilar.

Well you didn't get McCullers getting bombed but he was one or two hits away from it.

what's the middle ring?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

what's the middle ring?

 

It has a Rays logo, so must be a ring for their 2008 appearance.

[ConstableRabbit]

Pennant ring baby.

[The_Achiever]

Between springer, altuve, Correa and Bregman the stros have one helluva nice young core.

Can we please talk about Roberts letting Kershaw hit for himself down 5 in Game 7 of the World Series?

He was taken by surprise when he asked Morrow to warm up and was told he had already pitched today.
