Jim Joyce basically put a fork in the Astros playoff hopes.

The whole replay system is whack if you ask me.

 

Why are some plays reviewable and others aren't?

 

What makes one play more important than the next?

Because games would be 6 hours long if everything was reviewable.

[Northern Star]

So, should Roberts have taken Hill out, 89 pitches and 7 perfect innings? Apparently a blister was forming....

And after you use and lose your challenge, you can still ask the umps to review at their discretion. Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason that goes along with the exercise of discretion.

Hendricks just won the NL Cy Young. Too bad he won't even be the #1 starter in the postseason for the Cubs, unless Maddon's brain wakes up.

Very debatable.. I think Scherzer should win cy young.

Yeah, that's kind of idiotic.

[Thunder]

I just don't know... Seems like he either has no hit stuff or scatters a bunch of hits and a couple runs over 6 innings. Neither one has had very many blow ups, but Hendricks has just seemed way more consistent.

[Northern Star]

Really, Jays? Losing two to the Rays? I need as much insulation between the Yankees and a playoff spot as possible. Get with the program.

[Northern Star]

Yeah I'd pick Bowie over Hendricks on Ks and WAR.

[Spudboy]

The jays Lead the Angels 5-0 in the 6th.

 

f***!!!!!

You can't expect them to lose to last place teams forever... Can you?

[Northern Star]

Hey Dave Stewart, how're those Zack Greinke and Shelby Miller deals working out for ya?

[TylerD]

I'm rooting for the Jays tonight . Living in Canada and all my friends being Jays fans. They will be grumpy and pissy if they don't win and I don't want to put up with that lol

[mvp 78]

I don't really care either way. I would appreciate another dust up between Odor and Bautista though!

[Kimmi]

I'm pulling for the Jays, just because they are the lesser of the 2 evils.

Hmmmmm..... ya I dunno. Any team right now is going to be tough to play. I really hope we don't have to play Texas

I don't mean they're the lesser of two evils in terms of how tough they'll be. I mean the lesser of two evils in terms of how much I dislike them. I can't stand the Os.

Oh my bad that makes sense! Now I got ya!

[TylerD]

Cubs and Giants should be a good game

Pulling hard for the Cubs. Enough of this even year ********.

[d-money]

Cueto matching lester thus far. Man i wish we had gotten pitching like this.

[d-money]

Lester's such a stud. Ughhh

[Bellhorn04]

I thought the checked-swing punchout that started the 9th inning for the Giants was a bad call. The hitter didn't let the bat get parallel with his arms.

[User Name]

Head of the bat must cross the plate. It did not.

[a700hitter]

i agree. It was a bad call.
