    Error was called because the second run scored. It would have been a double anyway.

    Fuck the Astros.

    I don't understand how old ass 35 year old Verlander can throw 98 but he is. Bauer was probably right

    The Brewers, Dbags, Cubs, Braves, Phillies, etc are all child's play compared to these AL teams. Dodgers are scared chokers who are not on the same level. Starting pitching can hang with anyone but that's it. Offense will choke. No matter how many guys we add.

    perhaps
    but you can’t take that pitch with 2 strikes

    and he swung on that one pitch and it was followed by an outside strike...anyway did anyone really think he was going to actually do something there?

    Because he answers for the same FUCKTARDS who chose Darvish over Verlander.

    Dave 's way into the R/L thing and his douchey match ups.Too damn much.
    Indeed, it almost seems if you are hot, ,you will be riding pines on the middle of your hot streak...bank on it.
    This is a sprint to the finish line, not a leisurely stroll. If there is some firepower happening on this bi polar team, you need to go with it now.

    Check out his splits vs. RH pitching. I can see why he sat against Verlander. That aside, the guy playing second (Taylor) had the best cuts of the game (Pederson HR aside).

    That is exactly my point. By the numbers, or not at all. And isn't the depth thing, personified with a guy like Taylor, who doesn't have to play 2nd, the strength of the club?
    I get the splits and by the book and all of that...ad infinitum.

    Memory serves, you've been a bad luck charm :poke:
    At least I went 16-4 in 2017 before the game 7 collapse. :p

    Hope I'm wrong too. I usually am, so have a blast!
