Dave Cameron

We will
Alex

My heart can't take a game like this. Can Fangraphs do a piece on heart attacks by fanbase in do or die games?
Dave Cameron
8:45
HIPAA won't let us
Bobert
8:45
Will we have game chats for all WS games?
Dave Cameron
8:45
Yup
Zack
8:45
Heart attack guess:
By volume, NYY
By severity, CLE or CHC
Glenn
8:45
Will there be pizza at any time during the chats?
Dave Cameron
8:45
Are you buying?
ChatzMcGee
8:46
Yeah, we getting more CC.
Jason
8:46
CC is gonna go 6-7 and not give up a run.
Cardio
noseeum
8:47
No way CC goes past 6, but I expect him to go 5 unless something goes wrong.  Girardi will give him the shot at the W at least.  Of course, something could definitely go wrong.
Dave Cameron
8:47
Not if the game is close.
8:48
They're not going to push CC when his pitch count elevates and they have so many other options.
Mitchell
8:48
For what it's worth, Jackson saw four pitches, none of which were in the FS1 strike zone. We've established that it's smaller than the actual called zone, which begs the question, why wouldn't they use the actual zone?
Dave Cameron
8:48
"Actual zone" is somewhat nebulous and depends on the umpire/catcher/pitcher combo.
Easier to just use standard dimensions than tweak it every game.

As an engineer: quit makin' work, Mitchell.
Joe

Which player in tonight's game is most likely to go in the HOF?
Dave Cameron
8:49
Fun question
Chapman, probably?
8:50
CC is a borderline candidate given how high the standards for SP are right now.
Easier for an RP to get in. And Chapman's one of the most dominant RPs ever.
brad
8:50
Just too early to say Lindor?
Dave Cameron
8:51
Yeah.
noseeum
8:51
That's a damn shame.  CC is a hall of famer, but I agree the voting currently says he's borderline.  Hoping that changes by the time he's up for vote.
Dave Cameron
8:51
At some point, the bar has to come down.
Or we're just never going to put SPs in again.
Mark
8:51
Is Kluber too late of a bloomer?
Dave Cameron
8:51
Yeah
David
8:52
More HOF worth: Sabathia or Mussina?
Dave Cameron
8:52
Moose, easy.
Bobert
8:52
If CK22 was injured for the rest of his career, he’d get into the HOF easily right?
Dave Cameron
8:52
Yeah, probably.
Department of Silliness
8:53
CK22 is not an acceptable nickname.
Aaron Judge
8:53
Any particular reason I keep striking out?
Dave Cameron
8:53
These are good pitchers.
ChatzMcGee
8:54
Record setting is Judge’s forte.
