Red Sox vs Dodgers WS Thread (2018 non Cubs games)

[CaliforniaRaisin]

puig is sub heywardian at the plate right now

 

Puig has a .500 OPS. Forsythe is at .507, Pederson .616 and Seager at .670. Wow.

Imagine Javy playing in Coors, not only being Javy but also having opposing pitchers not being able to throw breaking stuff like they're used to.

 

Pssshh, imagine this entire Cubs offense playing in Coors for 81 home games. They would easily score 900+ runs every season lol.

 

Whoever thought it was a good idea to play baseball in Denver was either really high or really dumb.

 

Denver is an amazing city and that ballpark is beautiful so respectfully disagree.

Angels owe Albert Pujols something like $27m a year through 2022 and he's so bad right now that Luis Valbuena (.651 OPS) is playing first base.

 

edit: sidenote: Im watching angels-astros and it's infuriating how good verlander is now/again

it would be nice if the brewers team we made fun of all offseason would lose a game

Once they stop playing 3 of the worst teams in the league they will.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

The Brewers are complete frauds. They're even worse than I thought they'd be. It will be quite evident by the end of May.

The next four games will do nicely :wink:

[Aaron_Kennelly]

The VPs are not nearly as vaunted as the VBs were.

[Cubswin11]

Greg Holland is Reds bullpen pitcher bad

[17 Seconds]

that polanco at bat was heinous

[Cubswin11]

The Cardinals and Brewers both play some of the most consistently sloppy and bad defense I’ve ever seen. Missed cutoff guys, not making routine plays, turning 1 mistake into a larger mistake, etc.

#CardinalsLose

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Vaunted!

Blew a five run lead....nice

[Brian]

despite the slow start the division will still be won by the ASB

[We Got The Whole 9]

Nick Kingham perfect through 6 vs the Cards in his MLB debut

[We Got The Whole 9]

Arrieta just struck out his first Marlin and has allowed 5 runs in 3.1

[sneakypower]

Josh Hader had an 8 K save, holy horsefeathers

[Cubswin11]

Josh Hader had an 8 K save, holy horsefeathers

Don’t know why they aren’t making him a starter. But great to see them potentially not maximize his value.

[17 Seconds]

when developing potential star players, you always hope that one day you can put all that talent to use in april games against the reds

[PackLandVA]

Hader is very, very good. He and Knebel make that a fantastic back end of the BP.

[We Got The Whole 9]

62% K rate this year, JFC

[CaliforniaRaisin]

They’ve also relegated Woodruff to the bullpen, which is weird.

 

Hah. The 3 runs the Brewers scored in the 7th were more runs they scored the entire 4-game series against the Cubs.

[SouthSideRyan]

Has he not had many save opportunities recently or something?

[UMFan83]

I see our old friend Jorge is actually off to a decent start:

 

.304/.434/.456/.890 line and is playing every day. 0.8 WAR in April
