    You win. Congrats. Go Stros.

    Boone's mistakes weren't as obvious as girardi's non-challenge last postseason but they were certainly just as egregious. After that game girardi apologized to the team and they rallied back to win the series. What is Boone going to do? My guess is he's locked himself in his office and is watching his walkoff ALCS HR vs Boston on repeat.

    Let's see if Boone's strategy of "forfeit tonight's game let them use up all of their offense" pays off
  4. bkzwhitestrican
    Phew good thing we saved them from scoring that 11th run.

    Boone. Lynn has no control of how much he sucks but Boone should know that as manager.
  6. bkzwhitestrican
    6 dominant arms in bullpen. Boone decides to bring in Lynn. What a dickhead.

    Sacrificing defense for offense. Plus adding two lefties into the lineup at Yankee Stadium. I wouldn't call it a panic move, more like Nunez, Leon and Kinsler (to a lesser extent) have been sucking and they want to see if they can find a hot bat. Might have to do the same with Stanton if he keeps killing our rallies.

    So much for that revamped Guardians' bullpen. The Stros' decimated them. I'd say that they have to be the overwhelming favorites to win the WS.
  9. bkzwhitestrican
    Yes. Playoffs are more important than real life.

    Verlander suddenly becoming awesome again after leaving Detroit doesn't make sense to me

    I don't watch many Sox games so I don't know if the batting order is accurate, but: Betts (1.078 OPS) vs McCutchen (0.892 w/ Yankees, 0.792 overall) Benintendo (0.830) vs Judge (0.919) Martinez (1.031) vs Hicks (0.833) Bogaerts (0.883) vs Stanton (0.852) Pearce (0.901) vs Voit (1.069 overall) Devers (0.731) vs Didi (0.829) Nunez (0.677) vs Andujar (0.855) JBJ (0.717) vs Sanchez (0.697) Vazquez (0.540) vs Torres (0.820) Boston Total OPS: 7.388 (0.821 avg OPS) NYY Total OPS: 7.666 (0.852 avg OPS)

    Why use lineup slot? These numbers include players who are no longer on both teams' rosters. A player by player comparison makes the most sense and would give the most accurate measure. Unless that's not what you want.

    I have to disagree with the one guy who says Boston's lineup is deeper than the Yankees. The Sox have a very top heavy lineup. Their top 4 is definitely better than our top 4 (Betts/JD/Beni/Bog - total 3.822 OPS vs Judge/Stanton/Hicks/Didi - total 3.434 OPS) but the remainder of their lineup is pretty questionable. The only other batter in their lineup over .800 OPS is Pearce and he's a platoon batter who mostly faces LHP, whereas Gleyber/Andujar/Voit/McCutchen are all .800+ OPS hitters.

    If you ever run for Supreme Court Justice this comment will come back to haunt you.

    "I gotta have that" - whichever airhead kept repeating it
  16. bkzwhitestrican
    Boone gets credit for managing this game near perfectly. Hopefully this continues for the next 4 weeks.
  17. bkzwhitestrican
    +1.

    I'm glad AJ Cole isn't on the roster otherwise I'm sure Boone would go to him right here.

    Winning the division does mean something. But let's be real. Both our franchises have won enough that they are past the point where division titles are of much relevance. Obviously the Sox have had better regular seasons than the Yankees these past three years. But what did it matter in the end? Nobody remembers the teams that don't at least make it to the WS. Teams like the Braves and Brewers will cherish those division titles since they're pretty rare for them. Our teams aim higher.
  20. bkzwhitestrican
    Why cut it off at 2001 if you're gonna go that far back??? I wonder. Past 10 years: Yankees 1 WS win, Sox 1 WS win. See how that works?

    Cubs were the best team in the NL for most of the season, finished tied for the best record in the NL, then don't even make the actual playoffs. The new wild card is cruel, but very entertaining.
  22. bkzwhitestrican
    I'm fine with Sevy starting, he has the highest ceiling of the three options. Whoever starts is going to have a short leash anyway. And although he did got rocked by the A's previously, he has looked better over his last few starts: 17.2 IP, 2.04 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, 18 Ks

    And TB destroyed his phone before anyone could look at it. Destroying evidence isn't something that is typically done by the innocent. But maybe he had photos on there with his dong out that he didn't want leaked.

    I believe he said "that was for you, bitch" as he pointed to Kittredge (the pitcher who threw behind Romine's head). I'm sure you'd be ok with what happened if Joe Kelly was the one who did it.
