The Yankees are playing, which means several such scenarios exist.

I'm tired of Chris Pratt and his soft shirts.

Calling for Cashman’s job…first world Yankees problem. 🤦‍♂️

Keep reminding myself that Guardians win by running over imperfect bullpens ... and the Yankees have one of those.

As a Guardians fan, I 100% believe their path in this series is to work the Yankees starters and force that pen to throw 4+ innings per game. If they can make this a pen vs. pen battle, I like their chances.

If you asked the Guardians whether they'd take a draw between Cole and Quantrill, though, they'd say yes easily

Is Peraza eligible for the playoffs? I'm surprised he's not on the roster
AvatarDan Szymborski
8:50
Yes
As far as I know
8:51
Playoff rosters are different, situational players that do one thing well become more valuable relatively well. You have guys you're not starting available if injury

Which manager is most likely to get fired if his team doesn't win the World Series?
Ben Clemens
8:51
I think he'd only make the roster if they were going to start him over IKF, which they would not

Mike Matheny :-D

Sarcastically: Can we get some in-game interviews with Judge while he's simultaneously batting? Just like the regular season !
Ben Clemens
8:52
They'd never do this, but the Trevino/Cortes ASG interview was spectacular
Orioles2024

Matheny should’ve never been hired.

Cole needed that inning
AvatarDan Szymborski

9 pitch inning?

If you're the Mariners, what are you doing during your (bizarrely scheduled) off day tomorrow?
Ben Clemens
8:55
I'd be getting some Vietcajun food. I am dying to go to Houston and get some
AvatarDan Szymborski

That's a thing?
Ben Clemens
8:55
Yeah, and it sounds great
AvatarDan Szymborski
8:56
It does

I'm interested to see how Quantrill will pitch the rest of the game cause he had a 4.36 ERA 2nd time TTO and 4.40 ERA 3rd time TTO
Ben Clemens

There was a big influx of Vietnamese immigration (I think largely refugees?) in the '60's and '70's, and a lot of them settled in the Gulf

tell us more about the vietcajun food I’m drooling

Lol, my cousin in Houston raves about Vietcajun food.

A top 5 meal of mine, ever, was Szechuan-style crawfish in a Beijing convenience store back room and I think this would scratch the exact same itch
Guest

Baltimore used to have a restaurant named Thai-rish.
8:59
Wait a minute, Ben!  What were you doing in a back room of a convenience store.  
... never mind.
Ben Clemens

Getting crawfish! My friend got married in Guangzhou so a bunch of us went on a trip around China afterwards, we had a local friend in Beijing who took us to his favorite local spots

From Spotrac on Twitter: Cleveland’s entire 14-man ALDS pitching staff is making $18.5 million this year, or $17.5 million less than Cole himself

Good morning from Tokyo, where playoff baseball goes very well with breakfast!
Ben Clemens

Can confirm, as someone who did that this morning
Ben Schneider

Anyone else enjoying hockey opening night during commercials?

I am not, but am happy that I will see the Red Wings play the Rangers at Madison Square garden next month. It will be my first ever game at the Garden. I'm psyched.
