MLB 2018

Somebody score already!!!!

It would be different if the pitching were ridiculously impressive. But it isn't. They just can't seal the deal with bats on either side.

I'm a Sox fan. But I would take a dang Dodgers run right now.
 
Breathe...
Put the pipe down...
Back Away slowly...

Getchu a beer.

Get back in the game...:roflmao:

Ha! I don't pipe.

I understand thoug.

It's just boring baseball. Pitchers and hitters are non existent. Just defense.

Dink to first.... out.
Pop up... out.
Strike out..... out.

Next team up.

Drink to third..... out.
Strike out.... out.
Pop up ..... out.


Rinse and repeat.

And a lot of them are getting to full count so it's just dragging out.
 
Dan Shulman &
Chris Singleton,

The Serius b’cast team...

MLB Network music...Buster Onley...

Very stat heavy...

Folks who might tune in just because it’s the WS might not know about a Third of what they’re talking about...

‘Cuz...Twitter?
 
What the hell is Robert's doing? Hill pitched only 80 pitches the whole game and has been great, pulling him just for one batter or because you got one hit on him?? Just another case of over Management from the crappyiest manager in MLB.

Dave Roberts knows a LOT more about October Baseball than I know.

It isn’t Roberts. It’s that hole Friedman and his f*****g computer. I for one am sick of it. They are ruining the game I’ve loved for more than 50 years. Last night they pull a guy pitching the game of his life. Tonight they pull Hill who is having a career game. Ridiculous.

He may. But management pulls the strings. I have no idea if Roberts is a good manager or not. I didn’t care for him as a player, but he seems like a decent guy. He is controlled by Friedman and his analytics. Roberts’ Dodgers are not Lasorda’s Dodgers. There isn’t any heart.
