Same with Joe Jackson and the splits behind high leverage and low leverage situations. Dude was unbelievably good in the playoff series when games didn’t matter and uncharacteristically terrible when they mattered. He definitely threw the series

I've never heard that particular take on it. Don't really give enough of a shit to delve into it. But if true, you make a valid point. Of course, God only knows how many other players were involved.
And also, I can't help but think about the scumbag Asstros players who basically got no punishment whatsoever for blatantly cheating during the World Series. The whole lot of those ****ers should have been banned for life and their championship should have been nullified. It's hard to imagine the endless dumping on Rose (and Jackson) when shit like that is allowed to stand. Is it only cheating if you play to lose? I don't think so.
