could be used that way too.

It's still applicable.
It's like saying that a coin isn't still 50/50 if you're only flipping it once.
Yes, playoff baseball has different incentives and needs and roster construction.

Jay, now that CC’s regular season career is over, how likely is it he will get voted into the Hall of Fame?
AvatarJay Jaffe
10:09
i think it's likely. He's not great in JAWS but the traditional milestones and the universal respect within the game will go a long way
i can't see leaving him off my ballot
AvatarDan Szymborski
10:09
He's on the edge.
I'll be voting when he's on the ballot and I imagine I'll be a yes
10:10
I'm curious to see if any writer does the "better than Jack Morris!" argument and votes for half the pitchers on the ballot

Smoltz advocating for the eye test over "information"...god...when can we get better announcers on postseason games

Judge can make Boone's decision really easy with one swing here.

I'm losing weight this inning thanks to all the word salad.

Yankees have the bases loaded and man, if Pressly is suddenly this hittable that's a big deal for Houston.

Did he just say "less velocity of pitch?"

I liked Buck tweaking Smoltz there for his outrageous use of "information"

Phil Nevin, human windmill, actually holds a runner up in easily the biggest surprise in the series so far.

Do we agree that Nevin made the correct call? I’m receiving angry texts from NYY fans but seemed smart to me.

I think it was
the throw wasn't great, but didi hardly got to see that in advance
BLOOPY

Who else was disappointed by the skepticism in the WAR mention?
AvatarJay Jaffe
10:14
bloop double for Torres, 2 runs, and wow that opens things up
AvatarDan Szymborski
10:15
I think I could see the eyes roll in the booth about WAR. Nobody wants to get into that fight
Are the yankees allowed to score in such a bloopy fashion?
AvatarJay Jaffe
10:15
Dan, what did they actually say, dare i ask?
AvatarDan Szymborski
10:15
Just muttering stuff about how it worked in 162 games but in the playoffs it's different
Buck just kinda ignored Smoltz

Now Tanaka stays in, right?
AvatarDan Szymborski
10:16
I'd leave him in
It's a mopup situation how
now
Eric
10:17
i would be OK with Tanaka pitching more up at least 5-0
