  1. Padres have every right to be upset about that strike call but this seems a bit over the top. Colorful language warning
  2. So Yankees win means I can watch game 1 in its entirety. Game 2 starting at 4:09 AM local time is gonna be rough though!
  3. I was pretty chill Game 1 and 2. Today with the early lead I started getting nervous because advancing to the NLDS and facing the Brewers started to feel real.
  4. My 9 year olds were watching with me. One of them is like my clone and sure enough at the end he was saying “they’re gonna blow it” repeatedly. 😂
  5. This is why I was questioning why Craig pitched Rea in Game 2 with the Cubs down 3 runs late and the bats doing nothing. Obviously the focus is always first on winning and advancing but I think it would have been a calculated risk to pitch someone else and have Rea completely fresh for Game 1 (or if needed Game 3 today). As it is, he threw 15 pitches plus his warmup, probably equates to his bullpen day essentially.
  6. I dunno if pitching him on short rest is ideal considering his signs of wear and tear and the fact that he’s pitched over 100 innings more than he has in any of the last 3 seasons.
  7. I say between NSBB and BrewerFanatic, the loser of the series has to shut down. As long as it’s the Brewers that lose
  8. little late But this can’t not be posted after that finish
  9. They want all 4 division series starting on the same day so they can have a quadruple header. I guess the NL gets the day off between games this year. Works for me to give our arms a rest
  10. I guess you can consider Rea’s pitching on Wednesday his throwing day
  11. We won the series and we haven’t even had our one game a week where we’re allowed to score more than 4 runs.
  12. Assad in Game 1? Luckily the multi inning guys barely pitched in this series. I believe Soroka threw 6 pitches and Rea threw 15
  13. Go Yankees. I think I’ve figured out a way to watch the games in Greece but probably won’t have much luck flying over the Atlantic.
  14. Yeah maybe it was Oct 1 to go with the billing cycle. Luckily nothing changed on DirectTV for me
  15. I cannot believe that such a horrible call was made in such an important spot. Obviously happy to take advantage of it but it still rubs me the wrong way. Can’t wait for ABS
  16. Oh my sweet summer child also game 5 would be at Milwaukee
  17. I believe they previously announced that they were moving to the highest tier as soon as the regular season was over. So I’m guessing yes
  18. I absolutely thought that was a HR. Mix of my natural pessimism, his pimping, and the fact that it was hit to straight CF which are always tougher to read off the bat
  19. Why are they keeping him in the game? 33 pitches and no command. Come on
  20. Holy horsefeathers. Holy horsefeathers. How did he call that a strike?
