Tabe Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 8 hours ago, Niners Fan in CT said: Rich Hill was pitching well and he certainly did not look gassed. He's a competitor, I have my doubts he was asking out of the game. Turns out Hill never said he was tired and didn't want out. Roberts came out to just talk, something he'd never done before, so Hill handed him the ball, thinking he was being pulled. So, mostly miscommunication, but I still blame Roberts for not sending out a pitching coach instead of himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I aint' takin' you out get the fuck back here! HEY DUM DUM!!!!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its the World Series, but you have to be smarter than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I just got an advance copy of Dave Roberts' Christmas cards he's sending out this season. COME BACK HERE AND FINISH PITCHING!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 If this World Series has taught me anything it's to not get so mad at the dumb shit Joe Maddon does because Dave Roberts does shit that is WAY dumber. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SorceressKnight Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Dave Roberts may have only played for them for two months, but he's one of the greatest Red Sox of all time. That's two World Titles he handed us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Man Known as Dan Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 While I'm not fond of Boston at all, Price getting a redemption and Machado getting to look like an idiot made this a more then acceptable result. Now please don't sign that asshole Cubs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 2018 Red Sox were a machine. 108 wins, 11-3 in the playoffs. Beat two 100 win teams and a team that won 100+ last year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope that Theo wouldn't go after him if for nothing else that he doesn't fit in with his vision for the Cubs. How are you going to sign someone who openly admits to phoning it in and milks whatever boo boos he has? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contentious C Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Well, Machado's personal hero is Alex Rodriguez, and this series seemed to highlight that, on several levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
