It took me a month of website mining to get my 3080 in January!

Every time they say Ruf spent 3 years in Korea it sounds like they mean he fought in the war

I predict that Dan predicts.

To be fair, we discussed that

Do pick-off attempts have a pitch count equivalent? Do they have any effect on a pitcher's arm?
AvatarDan Szymborski
11:18
I don't think so, though there's evidence hitters hit worse with more pickoff attempts

Weren't we urged not to make predictions?
Kevin Goldstein
11:18
Not in any serious way, no.

For those who don't know why I'm so familiar with Dial, Chris has been a friend for 25 years and is one of the reasons ZiPS is a thing.
So blame him for the Giants preseason projection

Predictions are easy. I parlayed the Orioles under .500 with Arrieta sucks. Next Kung Pao Chicken is on the house.

This is pretty surprising that Webb is still in for the 7th, no?
Kevin Goldstein

Mildly?
AvatarDan Szymborski

It is, but it's really hard to take it away from him now

How many innings are we rooting for here? I assume Braves fans like me would be okay with 19.
Kevin Goldstein
11:22
I certainly would love extras, but not because of the LCS impact.

I've got my booster shot tomorrow, I don't want to be going bed at 5 AM!
If we have extras, let's have a reasonable one
Rich
11:22
I’d guess the logic is he’s already faced the “scary” part of the dodgers lineup the 3rd time?
Kevin Goldstein

My sleep schedule is absolutely hosed with a puppy in the house, so I'm just like whatever.
AvatarDan Szymborski
11:23
Which isn't really bad Rich. Maybe they feel different if the top of the order is up here

If we’re doing predictions/polls, Who wins the NLCS? Braves, Dodgers or Giants?
AvatarDan Szymborski
11:23
You kinda have to take the Braves if doing a NOW projection
Kevin Goldstein
11:23
Nope, game results are verboten in KG chats.

This feels like it should be the NLCS... idk something about one of these teams getting bounced in the 1st round just feels wrong

My 5G microchip booster isn't till 1:30 tomorrow, let's get to the 16th tonight. Max is inevitable.
Kevin Goldstein

Then win your division. I see this kind of thing as a feature more than a bug.

Webb has the best pitcher snarl since Lackey.
