Most teams who make the WC game have an ace they would start. The Rays would've started Snell, The M's would've started Paxton. The A's had some unique circumstances that made bullpenning their best option.

Ron Darling isn't terrible. So theres that.

Sheryl Ring

11:22

I have to say...Boone gets a ton of flack, but he's managed fairly well.

re: Familia - good different, or bad different?

Sheryl Ring

11:22

Different enough where I don't lump him in with Castro and Chapman, for instance.

Dan Szymborski

Snitker's not getting fired, never get overexcited about the job security of a manager that the current front office didn't hire.

So this opener discussion is going to be another annoying thing that gets beat to death now, isn't it? People reacting to something they don't understand is hilarious because it's usually negative. And the fact they don't understand is hilarious, too. Hilarity is all around.

Dan Szymborski

11:23

Pretty much

11:23

How desirable is a job where you have to answer to Peter Angelos

Dan Szymborski

11:23

Not likely Peter

We are all hilarious, clueless ants on the face of the earth. Baseball is great.

Whom do you have more confidence in this post-season: Clayton Kershaw or Chris Sale?

Dan Szymborski

11:24

Kershaw

Sheryl Ring

11:24

Sale!

Brian CashGod

11:24

Kershaw wasn't throwing 90 MPH in his last start

11:24

Kershaw. I'm not convinced Sale is 100% healthy.

Flacco never was. Boom.

Dan Szymborski

11:25

Agreed.

Dystopian Future

11:25

On a related note, Sale's velocity has dropped scarily since he returned from the DL.

5 Run Homer

11:25

Hot take: I don’t trust either of them all that much

Matt

11:25

I was going to make a joke about the lady going with "Sale". And then I remember how incredibly frugal I, myself, am.

Dan Szymborski

11:26

My best friend is incredibly frugal

Like absurdly so

11:26

"he unravels that big body" -- well now I know what I'll think about in bed tonight

whole Tonight Show audience

11:27

How frugal is he?

Sheryl Ring

11:27

I'm usually frugal. Unfortunately for me, Sephora exists.

Dan Szymborski

11:27

He once moved from a beautiful downtown apartment to one in a dicey area to save $30 a month on rent.

He made like 60K

Matt

11:27

Oh, I didn't realize Dan was doing 50's style stand up

I'm Neil Hamburger but on the level.

I read that as your best friend is incredibly fungal, and I started thinking about how ZiPS is really a mushroom creature of superhuman intellect who calculates projections as a favor.

This poll is confusing. What am I trusting these people with?

Dan Szymborski

11:28

Everything.

Brian CashGod

moving is expensive, and you're only saving $360 / year?

Dan Szymborski

He didn't have much stuff
