Non-Cub Playoff Megathread Chit-Chat

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

105.3 at 49 is only a HR in Daikin Park according to statcast, I have no idea if that accounts for roofs

I'm thinking that would have been 2 run HR, not so sure because it was such a moon shot.

105 mph with a 49 degree LA according to Savant.  I'm not sure that's a HR regardless of what it hits.  

Apparently only 5 balls with a 49 degree LA have ended up as HRs in the Statcast era and 4 of them were hit harder.  I believe the 5th was with favorable wind conditions.

Edit: Actually reading more into it, all 5 of those HRs were wind aided.

I’m not so sure. It was still heading upwards when it hit the cabling. I think it was a HR ball, but we’ll never know.

I agree Megill is a prime candidate to blow a save. It just about happened there.

Make fans should call stadiums by their team name so they don't have to remember lol.   Like Astros Park.

The Dodgers are our playoff disinfectant.

He was only like 3-5 ft in front of wall where he caught it, have to think if it didn't hit beam and dropped down it would of carried out.

Yeah it being right down the line makes it closer but balls hit 40+ degrees are usually only out if the wind is helping or it's a Schwarbomb hit like 118 mph

King looks just as good as he did against us so far

He sure does of course, Tatis Jr. looks like ass.  Could be because he's facing actual quality pitching but, still the assh*le looks like ass.

[gflore34]

What the horsefeathers was Mason Miller snorting?  Glue?

[gflore34]

That was a Nico special by Croenworth there.

[chibears55]

Padres gonna blow this aren't they 🙄

[chibears55]

Lol...

Its the Brewers year

[UMFan83]

Wow.

[JBears79]

Man, it would be nice to have players that actually show up in the playoffs.

[Derwood]

Maybe don't have Mason Miller try for a 40+ pitch save next time?

I didn't understand the sequence to Frelick, no way he does anything with 100+ letter high.  Just too cute.  That's were the game was blown.

[soccer10k]

Shouldn't have let it get to Chourio. You can't walk Gary Sanchez there. If he beats you oh well.

[mk49]

Wow.  horsefeathers Brewers.

[Dmac]

Yeah, I think this might be the Brewers year. 

 

[Stratos]

Wild series so far.

Walking sub-.200 Sanchez didn't help

[gflore34]

Padres have no punch on the road do they?  Tatis Jr. , very good, arrogant cocky horsefeathers in San Diego, pretty much the complete opposite away from San Diego.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Walking 2026 Christian Yelich, Sal Frelick, and Gary Sanchez is grounds for a lifetime ban
