  1. Not to defend the Nationals at all but from their viewpoint the Nationals need to win both game 4 and game 5 so what does it really matter if Srasburg starts today or tomorrow? End game is to win the series. Is it really much of a drop off by going Roark/Strasburg rather than Strasburg/Gio?
  2. What would be the point of that? Why not just play the entire game tomorrow? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk I agree with you
  3. So they probably will try to get 5 innings in today? Finish the rest tomorrow? Best case
  4. That's where Werth was hitting when the offense was clicking back in May. #Dustylogic
  5. I checked weather.com and between 3pm and 3am by the hour it says somewhere between .01 of an inch and .04 of an inch. Doesn't seem like a lot.
  6. They should have played this game at 9am. Although the rain is supposed to start around 1, it looks like it will be a slow drizzle thru tomorrow.
  7. He's left a couple beach balls up there but nobody is making swinging/making contact.
  8. Ok dodged a few bullets there, Zobs will probably hit a 3 run HR in the coming innings LOL
  9. But they are white
  10. The first batter I saw, Pedroia I agree was too close.
  11. This umpire sucks in the Boston game. Rang up two guys on Boston with the bases loaded, both were not close. Farrell got tossed.
  12. I think the only way the Cubs play a night game is if both ALDS series end in sweeps, otherwise probably a 4:08pm start is my guess
  13. I wonder if the girl in the picture with Addison's kid is the 3rd party who made the complaint?
  14. I don't think baseball playoffs need to change, but please explain this. What exactly was dumb about that? What gooney said. While the Western Conference was pretty "normal" in terms of seeding, the Eastern Conference was a mess. Because of the mandatory divisional series, you had a first round of 1 vs. 8, 2 vs. 3, 4 vs. 5, and 6 vs. 7. Well, the schedule is unbalanced. This happened in the Western Conference in 2014 when the #2 seed Blues played the #3 Blackhawks. Its not really a big deal other than losing in the first round instead of the second. You have to beat four teams to win the Cup, blaming the format is silly. Besides the reason for this is because the West is split among 3 time zones while the East just one. Columbus and Detroit are now in the East where travel is easy, complaining is rather funny.
  15. So the Jackets would have went out in round 2 rather than round 1? I like the new hockey playoffs, its a hybrid of how the playoffs used to be prior to the mid 90's
  16. The 90's Bills went to 4 Super Bowls. Maybe a better comparison would be the early 90's Pirates who went to 3 straight NLCS and lost them all.
  17. That's insanity. What kind of value is there on the Cubs side? Agreed, I thought maybe -150 tops, tons of value on the Cubs . No respect for Hendricks. If the Nats lose game 1 they are fucked, in my opinion,
  18. Nationals open up at -170 on the moneyline for game 1
  19. Here's a summary: the WC series is a best of 2. Wild Card 2 needs to win both games of a double header to advance. Wildcard 1 need only win 1 game. That would make for some pretty intense game action. It gives the 4th best team a big advantage over the 5th best team. At the same time, it still punishes the 4th best team for not winning the division.
