Dusty could have gotten him after the Schwarber home run and brought in 8 Sandy Koufax clones and they'd still be losing
Eel Ffilc
10:28
You go to bed at 7:30?
Davy Andrews
10:28
It's called living the dream.
Kyle Kishimoto
10:28
do you live on the west coast davy?
Davy Andrews
10:30
No, I'm in New York. But I would be happy to go to bed at 7:30pm Eastern.
Marsh’s Beard
10:30
Can we do one of these chats every game this series
Ben Clemens
10:30
I think two for us is probably enough
Although Kyle and Davy, maybe we should start a GoFundMe, we seem to be pretty good luck for the Phillies
Davy Andrews
10:31
We might make enough to hire that stringer.
Kyle Kishimoto
10:31
philly's 2 hardest hit balls of the playoffs have both come during our chats
Ben Clemens
10:32
I'm not above rooting for the Phillies if it gets me my bunt tracking
No cheering in the press box, but I'm not in a press box

Time for a position player to pitch for Houston? Why waste a real pitcher?
Ben Clemens
10:33
Please this
I know it's really annoying to see it in the regular season these days
Kyle Kishimoto
10:33
i doubt any losing team would ever do that in the playoffs but pls this
Davy Andrews
10:33
Yes, please. Altuve all the way.
Ben Clemens
10:33
But it would be really funny if the two full-time position players to pitch in the world series were like, Babe Ruth and Chas McCormick
Kyle Kishimoto
10:33
i would love to see the phillies do it to close out a blowout win
Morlock Jimenez
10:34
I'd love to see Yordan pitch.
Davy Andrews
10:34
He does have an arm on him.
Ben Clemens
10:35
Schwarber too
I loved that one year where he was just gunning people out left and right
Yoohoo
10:35
Tom seaver is the best rhp ever
Kyle Kishimoto
10:35
i really don't see this - his 7 year peak ERA+ was 146, there are plenty of guys with higher numbres than that
Kwah
10:35
My new theory is that lefty batters have an advantage because of that new shiny patch on their front-facing tricep, blinding the mound-dweller a la the climax of Brian De Palma's FEMME FATALE (2002).
Ben Clemens
10:36
it is REALLY shiny
good De Palma reference too
Jeremy
10:36
Jokes about pitching position players aside, the Phils should probably give Realmuto a bit of a rest and bring in Stubbs, right?
Kyle Kishimoto
10:36
as a member of team "use your dang bench more", imo they should
Davy Andrews
10:36
Would buy this t-shirt.
Ben Clemens
10:37
Brian Snitker is a great playoff manager, and it's almost exclusively b/c he uses the bad parts of his bullpen when necessary
I feel like teams do all this fancy rest research in the regular season and then yeah
Jeremy
10:37
Walter Johnson, Roger Clemens, and Greg Maddux want a word with you, Yoohoo.
Davy Andrews
10:38
I think the Big Train would've been to polite to say anything.
Ben Clemens
10:37
run out Max Scherzer in relief for funsies
Kyle Kishimoto
10:38
i was at that game, seeing scherzer warm up with kenley available to go a 2nd inning or joe kelly available to go a 1st was really weird
Ben Clemens
10:38
I was at that game too Kyle!
Phil's phan
10:38
Is realmuto fangraphs war take into account pitch framing or not?
Kyle Kishimoto
10:38
yes it does
