    The not chasing wins part refers to games when you're behind, though. Cora manages his pitching staff pretty much the way every other manager does now. The pitch counts are indeed pretty rigid.

    Yeah, it's like, let's make Mookie look as bad as possible by comparing him to Trout and Mays, 2 of the 5 best to ever play.
  3. Bellhorn04
    They are now.

    Most ironic part of this weekend: the offense which had been struggling to score runs in the first inning put up a 6 spot and a 4 spot, all for naught.

    We don't need a whole slew of the season is over threads. All you had to do was update your when does DD push the panic button thread.

    The stadium might be a factor in the number of runs. But if the Sox lose today, it will be 5 blown saves resulting in losses since June 10.

    Dave's Dare has become Dave's Disgrace.

    That's just silly.

    Let's keep in mind the Yankees, with by far the largest revenues in the game, have only won one title since 2000 and have not won the division since 2012.

    OTOH Cashman's big additions to the rotation, Paxton and Happ, have largely been busts-outweighed, obviously, by the other good things that have happened.

    Those problems were all in play in 2018, and that season turned out pretty well. When you're playing like s***, everything looks questionable.

    They would have to fall a long way out of the WC to become sellers IMO. This is the Boston Red Sox, the team with the highest payroll and highest ticket prices, and this wasn't supposed to be a punted season.

    Sam Travis will make you eat those words today. Today is the Day of Sam.

    So 7 years, and 14 wild card game winners advancing, and 2 of them have made it to the Series. That's a 14.3% success rate compared to a average success rate of 25%. The sample is still too small to be conclusive.

    I saw it differently. Two touchdowns and a field goal v a touchdown and two field goals.

    Who's starting for you guys tomorrow, Jax?
  17. Bellhorn04
    Optimistic take, Denny.
  18. Bellhorn04
    But not much consolation to draw from a game that puts us behind by 10 games.

    First baseball game in London, and they get an NFL score on the board.

    It's a cramp, per Pete Abe.
  21. Bellhorn04
    moon, you should have waited until after this game to post those projections LOL

    I must say it was a good idea to play this series in a stadium with a roof. I hear it rains a fair amount in England.
  23. Bellhorn04
    Well, I do like your idea better.
  24. Bellhorn04
    Right now everything seems to be going the Yankees way (in spite of all the injuries) so I wouldn't be unhappy with a split.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Your points have merit. It's true that a lot of the shortened appearances by starters are by design now. But most teams still use a setup guy/conventional 9th inning closer approach rather than having a 'relief ace' who comes in whenever he's most needed. We used Kimbrel as a conventional closer, and that's what he wanted to be and apparently still wants to be-the guy who gets the saves. In the 2018 postseason we used Barnes, Kelly and Brasier as the setup guys or bridge to Kimbrel.
