Game is so exciting Larry King stood up!

Jesse

8:17

My brother's mad that I won't concede that they should have left Verlander in, what should I tell him?

Jeff Sullivan

8:17

They made the right decision. Scoring a run was too important

Stevil

8:17

If the Astros lose, Verlander has to be denied Hall entry, right? If they lose the series, he's tarred and feathered and run out of town with Reddick, right?

Jeff Sullivan

8:17

Can't pitch when it matters!

Patrick Henry

8:18

Kershaw pitched a day ago. How long can he go tomorrow if Kenley holds the game?

Jeff Sullivan

8:18

An inning or so

The Hamburglar

8:18

So the plan tomorrow would be Darvish for 4, Kershaw for 2, then Morrow/Maeda/Jansen for 3?

Jeff Sullivan

8:19

I'm sure they'd like to get 5 from Darvish. Wood might make an appearance in there somewhere

Expect Dave to probably write about this if the Dodgers hang on

Alan S

8:19

Do Astros take pitches to drive up Jansen's count for tomorrow? Or jump early good pitches?

Jeff Sullivan

8:19

No, they want to win

Bregman has made some very memorable picks at third base in these playoffs

7 Game series are fun but they also seem so....inconclusive. It's hard to tell who was the better team and any stupid fluke play can decide the entire series

Jeff Sullivan

8:20

Neither one of these teams is better than the other. They're both absolutely amazing. All Game 7 would decide is who won Game 7, which is both the least and the most important thing

Ishii

8:21

Based on this Jansen performance bring Giles in

Jeff Sullivan

8:21

I would've liked to see him here in the 8th, but, whatever, Gregerson is fine

ChatzMcGee

8:21

Joey Votto appreciates Joc’s emotion, Joey Votto is the best.

Jeff Sullivan

8:23

Seager with the Bellinger-style strikeout

Moonlight Graham

8:23

Jeff, does WE take pitcher availability into account? For example, say the Dodgers used Jansen earlier in the game. Would their WE be less than it is now?

Jeff Sullivan

8:23

nope

Nick V

8:23

Can I just say I'm really glad to have a well-pitched game after the nonsense that was Game 5?

Jon

8:24

Hockey, with fighting and enforcers, has also traditionally tried to enforce playing “respectfully”

Jeff Sullivan

8:24

Yet players celebrate literally every goal with a big group hug

Morton Salt Girl

8:25

I have no clue why they rostered Liriano if they're not going to use him. Tyler White would have been much gooder it seems.

The Hamburglar

8:25

Do the Dodgers explore the Corey Seager trade market this offseason to make room for Charlie Culberson?

Cave Dameron

8:25

Jeff why are there so few black catchers

Jeff Sullivan

8:25

Systemic racial biases

acesfull23

8:26

Is Jansen available tomorrow or do they look to Kershaw for 7-9? Is it dependant upon pitch count tonight?

Jeff Sullivan

8:26

Gotta think Jansen will be available in 24 hours

Guest

8:27

How valuable would Taylor be if he were still a SS with his production?

Jeff Sullivan

8:27

He's not much less valuable being a floater

Liriano coming in. Not Giles. They REALLY hate Giles

Matt

8:28

How much should a pitcher's postseason performance mean towards his HOF candidacy?

Jeff Sullivan

8:28

Not very much, unless it's exceptionally good

He Hate Me

8:28

JV has 0 WS wins in 6 starts. Where's the narrative?

David

8:28

Is Hill available for tomorrow?

Jeff Sullivan

8:28

I wouldn't be shocked if he made a lefty appearance over Watson

Mike

8:29

The MLB playoffs aren't designed to identify the best team, they are designed to be fun as hell

Nick R

8:29

What team do you think has the best chance of challenging these two? Nats?
