Have to watch part of the game.

In other news, Bob Dole watched from home, which is usually a bad thing. Who knew that stuff didn't matter?

Just allow yourself to enjoy success, you don't have to be negative all the time. World Series are hard to come by, enjoy it while you can. Cubs fans would love to be where we are, yet CP is whining.

Ned isn't great but there are more than a dozen other managers in MLB who are way ****ing worse.

He doesn't deserve to be fired for anything he's done and the grass isn't always greener.

BECAUSE IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE AND SABERMETRICS AND STUFF AND 73 WINS!!!!!111!1!1!

But yeah, he seems to do much better at the top of the order. I don't know what the numbers look like, but it feels like the offense as a whole scores more runs when he's up there, but that might just be me making stuff up.

Mets players and especially Mets Fans are licking their chops for these two guys for sure.:drool:

Can we afford Price ? No way we should re-sign Cueto. The Reds "knew" what they were getting rid of even IF they were clearing the books.

....the rain delay came

and he pitched after said rain delay

lolz

I just have a feeling when Ned retires our next Manager is on Neds staff. There are several good candidates. Grifol could be snapped by someone after the Series. Wakamatsu is probably being groomed for another chance. Ned was perfect for him to settle him down and not be an uptite hardass.

Oh, I'm enjoying it and I'm not negative but it can be very frustrating at times due to Ned's decisions.

Also, I watch with the volume off, which helps me to enjoy it exponentially more than listening to Joe Buck.

Well, the right stats can tell the story. Fixating on ERA ignores how good Price's stuff was. He was striking out a team that never strikes out and didn't let the Royals put together a big inning. It's never great to give up home runs, but if they're isolated, they're not necessarily a killer. Anybody remember all those solo shots we wasted against the Astros in game 1?

We got this

His shit was good. It's a miracle he keeps getting saddled with losses.

This is about where I am. If it's me, I try to roll with Davis for the meat of the order and see what he has and send in Hoch if you have to pull him. But I recognize why he did what he did.

I would not fire Ned, even if the Madson decision cost us the game. That being said I fully expect him to retire at the end of the season.

They said in Price's 7-post season losses he has had a total of 12 runs of support.

Maybe his 5.50 ERA has been demoralizing on his offenses.

Maybe but in the 2 games he pitched against us his team put up a combined total of 6 runs.
