So Buck and Smoltz are just going to concern troll our pitchers until the final pitch, arent they?
-
5 !!!
-
As much hype as Kluber, Miller and Allen get, going to war with Hendricks, Lester and Chapman in a Game 7 isnt too shabby.
-
I'd get Chapman lose, but keep Lester in with a short leash until he gives you a reason to yank him. Rondon and Montgomery should also get ready just in case Chapman doesn't have it.
-
All seeing, all knowing Francona overused him earlier in the playoffs.
-
Shouldn't Buck and Smoltz have a conniption about you can't take out Miller and go to Allen this early?
-
According to Fox Maddon has done nothing right all seires and Francona has done nothing wrong. Win or lose tonight, I won't have to listen to Smoltz and Buck for a long time.
-
Oh yeah, we brought in a guy coming off a 1.016 WHIP and 164 ERA+ season in to pitch from the bullpen.
-
Grandpa has had some huge hits in these playoffs.
-
If Ross is cranking them out of dead center, we're not finished with Miller.
-
Settle in, we still got this.
-
No pitcher is getting to that ball in time, but Smoltz gotta Smoltz narrative.
-
Fark, that pitch was so much down the middle of the plate it was probably a mistake.
-
Hendricks is locking in.
-
We're winning this game on baserunning and defense.
-
Were getting to Miller tonight. We've seen him too much in the last few days.
-
JAVY BOMB !!!!!
-
Hendricks is throwing batting practice.
-
We are getting poor return on line drives.
-
Hendricks now executing maximum opponent nullification sequence.
-
Whatever happens tomorrow, don't overlook the big picture ... we've found a way to prevent ties in the All Star Game.
-
Man, what an epic matchup for a Game 7. Legit AL Cy Young Contender vs. legit NL Cy Young Contender + Another NL Cy Young Contender available for relief. Indians will have their full arsenal of their dominant bullpen well rested, while we have Schwarber back and Rizzo/Bryant swinging the bat better than they have all playoffs.
-
So, is it just absolutely crazy to think about pulling Jake now and giving him an opportunity for an inning in Game 7. I know the answer is probably yes, but still....
-
And Lester?
-
Fark the pitch counts, it's Jake's last appearance of the year, the WS is on the line and he has got his A stuff tonight.
