  1. Moon's question is on stats: I believe the WC is considered 'post-season', but tie-breaker games or play-ins are considered statistically as regular season, giving a season with 163 games.
  2. Yes, I know that. But 5GG is correct, I think. There is never an argument about large contracts in this crowd that doesn't get on a roll, gather up residual snow, and end up as the base for a teetering moral snow man. (E.g., e.g., several comments above deriding players who just 'go for the money').
  3. I would always tell my students: "Listen. People are a-holes. Deal with it. Me? Because I know what sh*ts humans are, I am never disappointed in them."
  4. I hope that's because life is good! That's the way it is with me.
  5. You could make that argument. You could also argue that film stars are paid too much and therefore you won't go to the movies. Why not direct your wrath of overpaid workers to the CEO's, whose businesses you subsidize despite their millions in salaries and stock options.
  6. Yes, it's crucial to id who the 'garbage' is, and why other teams are so blind to that we can trade them for 'medium free agents'. Nearly everyone on the roster has been called garbage at some point this year, so it's hard to keep track.
  7. Why? Any idiot can jump up and down and throw his hat. Even in my old amateurish athlete days, when I saw a coach or manager do that, it never inspired me. In fact, it was embarrassing. And I doubt any professional athlete says, WOW, my manager threw his hat and kicked dirt; THEREFORE, I'm going to play harder.
  8. Anyone who spends $500 on sports gear or memorabilia should feel regret!
  9. Let's just hope we're not having the same condescending conversation about Devers in five years.
  10. While we were moaning about the lack of fundamentals, Yanks win on a walk-off in part because the Rays' catcher seemed not to know that he had a force at home, stood off the bag and tried to make a tag. (And SplSpl, I'm with you 100% on FL and TX.)
  11. Pivetta sucks.
  12. Throw strikes!
  13. I'm not sure I'd want to take the bat out of R's hands, which would happen whether Iggy made it or not. (Well, that was a wasted thought).
  14. Yeah, as a poster said after his first HR, he should have pulled the ball. What a chump. DFA him.
  15. As I've been saying all day.
  16. Bogaerts sucks; Devers sucks; Verdugo sucks ...
  17. Anyone know if Iglesias is eligible to play in the play-in or WC game? Or is the play-in game considered the post-season?
  18. Ha ha. Another internet tough guy. Never had any experience with that.
  19. Still mulling over the "pre-post-season." I believe today's game is NOT a must-win game. The next one is, correct?
  20. Nothing to you is humorous. I think we've all figured that out.
  21. Let me understand what it takes to be a true fan: (1) trash Sale when he gets K's. (2) trash Devers because his HR should have been to right field?
  22. Devers sucks.
  23. There is no scenario where the RS do not play tomorrow, right? (or in some WC or pre-WC game)
  24. Sale is already a good pitcher.
  25. Yeah, maybe it's just me. I'd rather have Sale strike guys out than let them hit the ball.
