And just like that, the Rangers are up by 2.......lemme try one

The Broncos and Raiders are playing on Sunday and the stadium hasn't been blown up.

Weird! Most people thought they'd bring in Gomes instead of Gore because we already have Orlando and Dyson.

I guess we get to reset our playoff roster each round though, so if we make ALCS vs the BJs where runs will be scored more often, a batter would be of more use than a pure runner.

Jerok 10-08-2015 02:28 PM

Also, for everyone who says this will be a dogfight, that's what they said last playoff. That's what Josh Vernier's theme this season was, 'The Fight'. Well it turned out to be not much of a fight from the central, and I fully expect the Royals to sweep the entire postseason.

Glass is not half full, it's a solid gold chalice overflowing with craft beer served to me by high end hookers.

How bad did the Beltre injury look?

CaliforniaChief 10-08-2015 02:32 PM

Beltre's a tough dude. If he's coming out, it must be pretty serious, IMO.

Remember when he was 6th and everyone bitched about making him 1st? After a brief trial, Ned went the other way...

Because these Alex Gordon Stats:

---------------------AVG OBP SLG OPS
September ------ .233 .306 .337 .643
Against HOU --- .182 .250 .182 .432

Once I and everyone I know who signed up wasn't selected, I made other plans because I expected the secondary market to be nuts. I was right up until yesterday.

Looks like we may get the Marlins Man.

Gore gets a roster spot just as a pinch runner?

Well yeah. That's literally why he's a baseball player right now.

Games are typically pretty tight in he postseason. He's potentially a huge weapon

He's actually a really cool/nice guy.

It's very valuable and allows them to use Dyson is a variety of ways, while also being able to PR for the DH or C.

I think they might use Orlando as a PR in some situations as well, when they have a key run at 2B (Rios or Gordon or Moustakas or Zobrist hits a 2B). He's almost assured to score on any hit to the OF, as long as he gets a good jump.

Toronto will break out the corked bats for the bottom of the 9th

He once scored on an infield hit.



From second base.

Did you watch the playoffs at all last year?
