RIPPA Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Happ would pitch Game 4 and that would be in Yankee stadium where he is much better. Of course that’s assuming they get to Game 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Guy Eddie Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Judge doing what he does. At least Stanton had good contact on that fly out. It's an improvement from last night. With Price and a taxed Boston bullpen, I feel pretty good about tonight. There's still the knot in my stomach, but it's not overwhelming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a good laugh when Brian Anderson, who is pretty unbiased as far as national announcers go, called Price one of the best pitchers of his generation. They're not as good as the YES crews, but Anderson and Ron Darling aren't bad, especially compared to garbage like Joe Buck and John Smoltz. That stupid fucking wall.

Niners Fan in CT Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 ..and he's gone. Well, that was money well spent lol. If I was Boston, I'd seriously considering just trading him away and eating most of the contract. It's obvious at this point he will never accomplish anything of note when it matters. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Price for Jacoby Ellsbury straight up. Maybe pitching for the Yankees would help Price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Jacoby has basically $47M left on that deal. I'll never understand these contracts where you're paying a guy in his late 30's/early 40's insane amounts of money when you know he'll be a shell by that point. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinson Cano's deal with Seattle will be really ugly in its last few years. It's already started with his suspension this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Guy Eddie Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 I love it. According to Brian Anderson, Didi was stylin' and profilin' on that flip play to Gleyber. Woooooo!!! Series tied; going home sweet home. Hopefully, we won't have to go back to Boston this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Brett Gardner is that big of a drop-off from Aaron Hicks. I prefer Gardy's denfense to Hicks. Hicks takes some weird routes to track the ball and sometimes it ends up over his head. Eovaldi doesn't offer much besides a 100 mph fastball, which is far more common in MLB today than say 10 years ago. A major league hitter will be able to hit a 100 mph fastball over the plate without much movement. I hated the Eovaldi trade when Brian Cashman acquired him prior to 2015. At least it ended up being a bust for both teams. We still have Domingo German from that trade. Maybe German will improve in Scranton next year, although I don't have high expectations for him.

grilledcheese Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Can someone explain to me why Darling has to apologize for "chink in the armor", but 38000 assholes can pretend to be First Nations and do a a tomahawk chop and a fake chant and no one cares?

Less guilt over offending Native Americans Certainly not here, but inevitably someone would say something along the lines of, "It's just part of Braves culture, it's always been that way.".

He went 14-3 in 2015 with a WAR over 3 (which was 2nd for Yanks pitchers that year) His 2016 was mediocre at best but that turned out to be because of his injury Prado was 4th in WAR for the Marlins in 2015 (Behind Dee Gordon, Stanton and Yelich) He was 3rd in WAR in 2016 (Behind Yelich and Jose Fernandez) - including leading the team in hits and BA Not sure how you think that is a bust for both teams.
