If Chapman throws another inning with a 7 run lead...

Dave Cameron

11:20

He's going to pitch the 9th.

Pete Rose has already bet on it.

El Dragon

11:21

Still nobody up in the pen. Just... what?

Dave Cameron

11:21

They're at least getting someone up now.

senpaisanto

11:21

Pete loses! Bosio on the phone

bob

11:22

He's ordering a pizza.

Gabe

11:22

If you're not at home, where are you live chatting from. The FanGraphs field office in central Oregon?

Dave Cameron

11:22

A random bar.

Chalupa Batman

11:22

Does this bar have good nachos?

Dave Cameron

11:23

Got a burger this time. It was fine.

Eno Sarris

11:23

man I guess I don't want to know about your last chat what with the nachos and battery life

ResumeMan

11:23

Dave, bring an extra battery this time? ;)

Dave Cameron

11:24

Battery at 51%. Turns out lowering the screen brightness to almost zero and killing every other tab helped...

will

11:24

Vegan burger?

Eno Sarris

11:24

Being Bend, I bet it has a killer tap list, going to waste on Dave.

Dave Cameron

11:24

There are like ~23 craft breweries here.

11:25

I've had water at like 4 already.

Eno Sarris

11:25

Party at your city.

Next FG retreat!

Dave Cameron

11:25

My wife really likes the Deschutes Mirror Pond Pale Ale, for what its worth.

Pilot Butte is overrated

11:25

Is it Sidelines? That place is pretty good.

Dave Cameron

11:25

J-Dub.

Eno Sarris

11:25

Deschutes is solid.

Paul G.

11:25

He's still out there.

Dave Cameron

11:25

Of course.

Drew

11:26

jesus

Dr Evil

11:26

This is... interesting?

Matt

11:26

Chapman has thrown 15 pitches.

Even if he throws 30 ... he'll be able to walk right back out and throw 40+ tomorrow.

The guy is a horse. He is strong as hell. Tomorrow is the last game of the year. He'll have 10000% adrenaline going, he'll empty everything out of the tank.

Today's outing will have minimal [see: zero] effect on him tmrw.

Everyone is overreacting (just as Joe Maddon did)

Dave Cameron

11:26

You don't know any of that to be true.

You can hope it's true. You can want it to be true. You can believe it's true. But you can't know any of it.

You might even be right. But you can't know that tonight.

Matt

11:27

Neither do you not know it to be true.

Dave Cameron

11:27

I'm not the one making wild claims.

11:28

Moving from a known position -- what Chapman would be able to do on two days rest -- to an unknown is a downgrade. Period.

Guest

11:28

Strop comes in

Ryan Brock

11:28

You *are* the one calling people dumb, though

Dave Cameron

11:28

I haven't called anyone dumb. I've said this is a dumb decision.

Smart people make dumb decisions.

Professor Ross Eforp

11:28

Here is the other thing: Why give Cleveland batters any additional looks at the guy? It isn't like any of them have much history against him.
