Yeah. Theo brought up how Wilson has dominated Daniel Murphy (in a v small sample) and has made him look very bad.

They wouldn't. We're going to know this morning. Last year for Game 3, the Nationals/Dodgers was in the day and Cubs/Giants at night. If the Cubs won game 3, game 4 of LA/WAS would be the next night. If the Cubs lost, the game would be mid-afternoon, (with Cubs at night). The Cubs lost in 13 innings at like 2 AM et so the Nationals and Dodgers didn't find out until 11pm PT the night before that they were playing the next afternoon. Theo said yesterday, and the Score was previously reporting, that the Cubs told them that late morning today at the latest is when we would know. -
For Monday probably when they know for sure if or what AL games will be played But they might know that until Sunday night. AL games that day are 2:30 and 7:30 ET. If the AL series split the first two, then they'll know by early evening on Friday. But if Houston and Cleveland win tomorrow, you have to wait until Game 3 is played to know if there's a Game 4. Would they really wait until the night before the game to release the game time for the Cubs? DBacks-Dodgers don't have to worry since they'll be the late game regardless. They wouldn't. We're going to know this morning.

the phone notifications (not to mention potential texts) is the toughest part. i used to do a lot of DVRing and avoiding game outcomes with the cubs in like 03-04. it was not easy either, because i worked at a busy appliance/electronic store, but i managed to do it somehow. today, tho, it's damn near impossible. also allow me to make the obligatory (from me), "you're going to a regular season hockey game when the cubs are playing a potential elimination playoff game?!" comment The idea that somebody would want to watch a playoff game after it happens is crazy to me. I've DVRd some games, especially when my kids were younger and putting them to bed interfered with the start. So I could catch up what was happening and not miss anything. But when the game is over, if I missed it, just tell me the score. This is so weird. I couldn't even begin to comprehend the change to routine I'd need to watch a game 24 hours after it happened with no spoilers. Just realized this is about the Bears game. are you stopping yourself from watching both? I'm guessing he's assuming he'll be able to watch the Cubs on TV before the hockey game, since the Yankees are expected to get the late slot. But yeah, if the games overlap, I'm going to try to avoid the Bears game updates so that I can watch as soon as I get home, but I don't think I'll be able to.

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 horsefeathers, in my opinion, I mean what is the actual payout?

doesn't at all pertain to week 5, but not sure where else to post this. the gruden conversation earlier reminded me that i had recently watched this. if you can get past your brett favre hate, it is pretty entertaining. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJtSK9PgQfI

I like Jon gruden and I have no idea why. He really is beyond absurd. I guess he's just entertaining in his insanity.

I know maybe 6 guys on arizona and colorado combined, and maybe 1 Twin. I'm also blissfully unaware of a good half of the Yankees squad despite being surrounded by Yankees fans. The majority of viewers don't know who the hell these players are. Even if you don't know who Luis Severino is, do you want to know more about his stuff, how he tends to use his offspeed pitches, where he's struggled, etc. or 15 mins on the fact that he's 23 and that this is his first playoff start? They're details any broadcaster could share, not something I need a color commentator -- who is supposed to be an expert -- to explain. The best color commentators in other sports find a way to not do this all the time, even on national broadcasts. I've never had an issue with this sort of thing...my "triggers" have more to do with meatbally antiquated thinking. i.e. "defense wins championships" in every sport, "jumpshooting teams will never win" in the NBA, citing small sample situational stats like the mean anything in baseball, ground and pound in the NFL, etc. and when they lament how these games have evolved..."in our day blah blah blah."

Man, get a load of our own Turzinsky over here. ok, i'm just gonna say it. i didn't get this. i didn't wanna look dumb at first by asking for the explanation but i can't help myself.
-
i know most remotely good players in mlb, but that might be because i play fantasy
-
There is justifiable reason for this for national broadcasts. Especially come playoff time.
-
Maybe I just hear less of some of these people than you guys do, but I don't hate any national color commentator, not since Tim McCarver stopped. Smoltz is abysmal. Just fat juicy meatballery.
-
Actually the only national color commentator I can think of that I don't hate is Jessica Mendoza. There's probably some random ex-players that do it just for the playoffs who aren't immediately coming to mind, too.
-
Yep. When I think of national guys I hate, they are almost all color guys. I don't even hate Joe Buck all that much anymore. Edit - Also, I wouldn't hate the 3 person booth the way you described, either, even though anyone with MLB.tv knows there are tons of terrible local color commentators out there.
