It's rare when I can make an on-topic King Crimson reference.

Tonight is a classic Game 1 matchup of two of the best pitchers in the game in Scherzer and Cole, meaning that the final score will likely be 13-9
AvatarDan Szymborski

I think that has happened in 100% of the classic pitching matchups that I've looked forward to in my life.
Ben Kaspick

Same. And I'm reminded of matchups like 2012 when it was Barry Zito vs. Justin Verlander.
Naturally Zito prevailed, and even had a huge hit!

Baron Zito!

I want the Astros to win game 3 but lose the series?

Your clock strikes 8, mines strikes 7. I'm offended, Daniel.

If you're Gerrit Cole and the Yankees come calling this winter, does the fact they weren't willing to part with certain players affect your decision?

No.

So Dan, Sandwich of the night is????
AvatarDan Szymborski
8:12
No sandwich. I have a bit of bronchitis and my chest is tight and I've been not really all that hungry.
8:13
I'm just drinking coke and eating peanuts.

Unsalted peanuts. Not for health reason, I just don't like much salt. I like unsalted pretzels too.
FREE DORITOS (YES)....locos tacos. <sad face>

what are the odds America does not win a free taco this year?

Max Scherzer as a more than 2-1 underdog. Something I never thought I would see.

Ice cream and baseball?
I dunno, MLB *has* been rather opaque about their baseball construction.

Cassiopeia was sneezing all weekend but seems better now. Last I saw her she was asleep in her favorite bedroom. Constantine was fighting a scratching post, I can here Justinian fighting something on the stairs, and last I saw Mercutio, he was hiding under the bed after an awkward social interaction with Justinian.
PleaseThanks

FWIW...before the first pitch.  Would be awesome to read some coverage of the whole MILB proposal/situation.  Under reported and super interesting.

Yeah, it's kinda outta my wheelhouse since it involves lots of legal matters
Has Sheryl written anything at BtBS?

Is there less incentive to platoon with starters going fewer innings? (present starters excepted)
AvatarDan Szymborski

Not sure it really changes things too much

If/when Osuna comes in and there's a crowd outpouring of support, I'm going to have to take a break from baseball, maybe for the whole series.
Train noises!
8:17
How upset do you think Osuna was about Trautman? He's spent the past year trying to keep his head down and now, on what should have been a time that everyone forgot why Altuve had to win the game, Trautman's idiocy gets him brought back up.

I understand teams are going to make cynical choices given the amount of money that is at stake. I just wish they weren't so hapless at backing it up. Stand behind the negative consequences!
Don't double-down.
