Jiji Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 People thought the same with the Jays last year. I don't normally put much stock into clutch performance, but Price certainly seems to buckle in the post-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And fuck Bill Madlock and his dirty slide. This September has been absolutely brutal. It's a shame that the offence and relievers have let down some pretty great starting pitching. That slide was dirty as hell, that's for sure. But it was Frank Tanana who tossed the shutout on the last day. Larry Herndon homered for the only run - 1-0. That season was awesome. Fun fact: Doyle Alexander started 11 games for Detroit that year. The Tigers never trailed in any of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Okay....so all we need to do is 1) beat Pittsburgh tomorrow 2) Somehow get S.F. to lose to the Dodgers 3) Beat S.F. on Monday 4) Fly to New York Wednesday and beat the Mets AND WE"RE IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So it's basically, like, a done deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dewar Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Hanley Ramirez hit a "sort of homer" to break up Aaron Sanchez's no-hitter with 2 outs in the 7th, and tie the game at 1. As in, the ump called it fair, and thusly when the review comes back inconclusive, it goes with the default call. I have no proof that ball was foul (because the camera angle at Fenway suck for home runs down line towards the green monster), but when the players on that side of the field all yell foul, and the guy who hit the ball keeps his bat in his hand and does not run, it's usually not a fair ball.

sabremike Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Interesting fact: the Cardinals were the only team in the NL with an above .500 record who didn't reach the postseason (The AL had 4: Detroit, Seattle, Houston and NYY). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grilledcheese Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 As beat up as I am about LAD getting swept by SF to end the year, Bumgarner - Syndergaard should be pretty goddamn great. Here's hoping the Giants get tomahawked and NYM goes on to CHC. Also, I have no idea how to feel about Dodger baseball without Vin behind the mic. I'm heartbroken, but for fuck's sake, he's 89 and deserves to spend his last few years as laid back and stress free as he can. I spent his last game listening to him on the radio, the same way I first had the pleasure of hearing him do Dodger games when I was little. In order to best honor his legacy, the Dodgers should take the great Jake Taylor's advice and win the whole fucking thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the last 10 years or so, my Dad and I have had conversations about what should be done with the thousands of hours of tape on Vin. My best suggestion as of yet is to put out records of some of his tales to use as bedtime stories. I would listen to Vin read the goddamn dictionary. Someone should get him to do a GPS add-on while he still has the pipes to do so. Edited October 3, 2016 by grilledcheese 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serious Darius Bagfelt Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 On 9/29/2016 at 0:24 PM, Dewar said: The Blue Jays bullpen is quite the dumpster fire these days. If they manage to get to the best-of-5 round, I have very little faith they can get a win without the starter going 9 innings. Great stat. The Jays starters led MLB in most innings pitched yet had not one complete game this season. Going to be tough with Grilli wearing out Osuna over worked and Gibby too scared to trot out Feldman, Tepera, Danny Barnes and anyone else sitting out there. Liriano will be the closer by the time the playoffs start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 He'll end up on the Brewers by December for no reason as we dump his 150% better counter-part Chris Carter who actually had an okay season by his standards. If you raise that average 30 points you have a very good power bat. .222/.321/.499 41 HR, 94 RBI, 206 Ks, 76 BB. He lead the NL in homeruns. Tenth in walks. A WAR of a whopping 1.1 cause his DWAR is a dreadful -1.4 at probably the easiest position on the field, first base, he had 11 errors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianS81177 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Bummed the Mariners fell short of the wild card. I have a feeling there's gonna be a pretty big overhaul of the roster too. Can't see them bringing back Lind or Ianetta for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
