    True, especially if Betts doesn't rob Reddick of that 3 run job.
  2. moonslav59
    I hope we do a better job having our starters rested by playoff time next year. Can Price be stretched out to the point he can start a game by the WS? He went 4 today. He could go 4-5 next outing and maybe 5-6 the next, assuming enough rest between games.
  3. moonslav59
    I'm not sure about the going farther, but yes, the jump made his look harder. Plus, bad throw and all, he got the DP.
  4. moonslav59
    Agreed, He was also playing hurt in 2015. The guy was second on the team in HRs and first in HR %, yet some people want to DFA him and pay him $44M to get healthy and possibly rake elsewhere.

    Like Canseco's header? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxNPipot74g
  6. moonslav59
    Well, my call was actually ERod with Porcello starting game 4. This way, we now have both available.
  7. moonslav59
    I'm a lip reader. Fister said, "Why the f*** did you even start me today? Rick and Eduardo are better than me!"
  8. moonslav59
    Which catch was tougher? Mookies or Dewey's?
  9. moonslav59
    Yes, but maybe we go with ERod first off the bench. Who knows.
  10. moonslav59
    ...and we might have missed today's performance the next game he was "kept out". This is a perfect example, and many more exist, of why decisions should not generally be made based on small and scattered previous sample sizes. Price is a very good to great pitcher. He was bound to "return to his norm" at some point in post season play. What I've been thinking more about is that maybe we need to think long and hard about not burning out our starting pitchers by the time the playoffs arrive.
  11. moonslav59
    Great point.
  12. moonslav59
    My line-up next game: 1. Pedey 2. Vaz 3. Beni 4. Betts 5. HRam 6. Devers 7. Moreland 8. JBJ 9. Bogey
  13. moonslav59
    3.43 is pretty darn good, and it certainly beats 9.18.
  14. moonslav59
    I'm lovin' the guy right now- as is JBJ!
  15. moonslav59
    It was no choke before either.
  16. moonslav59
    How about last 4 starts? ERod Last 4 starts 21 IP 8 ER (3.43 ERA) (last 5 starts: 27 IP/10 ER: 3.33) 17 H + 9 BB (1.24 WHIP) 24K Porcello Last 4 starts: 22 IP 11 ERs (4.50 ERA) 21 H + 9 BB (1.45 WHIP) 18K Fister Last 4 starts (before today) 16.2 IP 17 ER (9.18 ERA) 24H 7 BB (1.86 WHIP) 18K I saw a major difference and still do.

    Were those key 4 innings by Price enough to get those who had no faith in his playoff abilities based on his scattered past sample size to at least begin to reconsider their beliefs a teeny tiny bit? I know it's only 4 innings (a small sample size in and of itself), but that was Pedroeque!
  18. moonslav59
    Reminiscent of Dewey's great catch, but this one was going to be a 3-run homer!
  19. moonslav59
    40 career PAs against Morton. I say, we're due to pound this guy!
  20. moonslav59
    Price & HRam. Wow, two of the guys most roasted by fans and the media this year.... Boom!
  21. moonslav59
    lol!
  22. moonslav59
    "Bonafide Game Superstars" , like Betts, can win games with their gloves too.
  23. moonslav59
    Start ERod. If he falters early, we'll need to hope Porcello can pull a Price in relief.
  24. moonslav59
    Great post. The way the best teams have stocked up their pens, getting the starter out early doesn't carry the weight it used to do, especially once in the playoffs.
  25. moonslav59
    As I stated before, both ERod and Porcello had better recent 4-5 starts than Fister. It was a bad choice. We just may win this, despite JF's incompetence.
