I thought his fingers touched the bag right when the tag happened.

Why? Let's the opposing pitcher get into a rhythm and repeatable approach. Giving him a different look once or twice in the lineup forces him to adjust Sure helped Sale get into a rhythm in Game 1 when he gave up 3 runs and 7 baserunners in 4 innings. He also gave up just as many runs, just as many baserunners and struck out fewer batters the second time through the order. Price was also worse the second time through (0-8 with a walk and 3 Ks the first time vs 3-6, 2 BB and 2 Ks the second), though the Dodgers were 0-6 the third time.

Muncy, Bellinger and Pederson combined for a whopping 15 HR vs LHP. Bellinger had a .681 OPS vs LH and Pederson had a .512. How did sitting those guys work out for him? There’s an alternate universe where Roberts started all three guys in both games, they went a combined 1-14 with 8 Ks off Sale and Price and lost all three games, and alternate universe Derwood is laughing at Roberts for not starting righties instead.

Machado also posted a .265 BABIP last year while his career average is .301 and was worth at least 6 fWAR and 5.7 bWAR in three of the last four years. Happ needed a .362 BABIP this year just to have the line he did. He was in the .310’s in 2016 in AA as well as in AAA and the majors last year. I know you weren’t making the argument that Happ > Machado or anything like that.

That was last week. Raiders didn’t play yesterday.
-
Hey Milwaukee, Good season. Thanks for pretty much sticking the dagger in St. Louis the last week even though it cost us the division. Good riddance.
-
Stellar work Ohio State.
-
Bellinger!
-
Score a run or two and at least make them use Hader, please.
-
Well that’s certainly an entertaining ending. Kimbrel seems to be specializing in those this postseason.
-
I went to google the Donaldson thing and he also threw his helmet down at Donaldson after Donaldson tagged him out running to third rather than throwing to first.
-
3rd time this series. There will be some puffed-chest shoving before this series is over. Yawn. The two slides from yesterday or am I forgetting one? The second slide yesterday (the one that they reviewed and correctly ruled interference on) didn't seem as much cheap or dirty as it was just incredibly stupid.
-
That was pretty cheap from Machado.
-
Buck and Smoltz fawning over the good catch Bellinger just made because he's played only 12 innings in right this year. Guys, he played almost 500 innings in center. I think he's fine handling right.
-
What did the tweet say? Looks like it got deleted. EDIT: Assuming it was this?
-
Just saw the second one. Man that was not only stupid but unnecessary. Hello get had that thing beat out regardless. Plus then they show Machado in the dugout after the overturn and he’s shaking his head like he can’t believe it. I mean, this isn’t a Matt Holliday complete takeout slide, but he slid way wide of the base, didn’t maintain contact with the base and tried to reach out and grab Arcia as he was sliding by. It’s as textbook of an illegal slide as you can get now.
-
he has to wait until game 4 at least Yeah, pretty sure you didn’t start freaking out until we got shut out in Game 3.
-
Thought Counsell was pushing it with Jeffress staying in. Pitched yesterday and at 20 pitches after the 7th. Got burned for it.
-
Turner!
-
Joe Buck said “this is going to be a tough play” on the Taylor single and it made me happy.
-
Dodgers just used their last guy on the bench in the 7th. I’m sure they won’t have to bat a pitcher in a big spot later in the game.
-
Friendly reminder that the Mets are a horsefeathering joke. [tweet]https://twitter.com/keithlaw/status/1050864847154499584[/tweet]

I almost want the Dodgers to win more because of this post than because I don’t want the Brewers to win.
-
Dodgers making it interesting. 6-4 in the 8th.
-
Yes that’s exactly what I was doing when I said that the Brewers and Cards have the same type of September schedule as we do. Try again.
