This postseason is showing that those in advanced analytics were on to something by putting both your best bullpen guys in the highest leverage situations (instead of the 9th). ...but it could be also proving that provoking stress pitches by having your best batters up with runners on base might be preferable than having your best batters have more at bats with the bases empty. |

Also, F Zobrist for leaving the Royals with garbage at 2nd.

I absolutely think Zobrist should be hitting in front of Bryant and Rizzo. I'd ring that bell all year. I know it's the LaRussa strategy of having a real weapon in the 2 hole to put pressure on the pitcher in the 1st inning. Still not a huge fan. Especially because they're playing in the National League. If they were an AL team it might be different. The pitcher hits two spots in front of Bryant, who is probably the MVP of the league. Seems like that's not the best way to put together a big inning.

West is horrible and an arrogant, but it can't actually be worse than last nights zone.
I agree he should have checked, but the plane of the plate isn't the only thing that defines if he went. Intent is part of it, which is why the check swing is such a debated call. I would agree with the umps that he went after that pitch. There are so many issues with the definition of that call, but I think they got it right. |

Zobrist batting cleanup again.
![]() Maybe a 5th shutout this postseason will get Maddon to mix shit up. Praying for a miracle tonight. |
