Paul Swydan

3:35

Yes.

3:36

The creepiest part is that he's looked and sounded that creepy my whole life.

The Hamburglar

3:36

What about Verlander? Do you take him out of the game and count on him to come back for an inning or 2 on Wednesday?

Paul Swydan

3:36

I think you leave him in but have someone ready.

3:36

RARE FOOTAGE of a 16 year old benintendi knocking us out of the playoffs the year before with a home run. and of me striking out looking.

Hanley's helmet fits fine. He just wears a frictionless 'do-wrap under it.

Paul Swydan

3:36

Fair point.

Big K for Sale.

3:37

It's remarkable how crappy this camera angle is.

Terry Puhl's 1980 NLCS

3:37

Good hit by Yuli or bad play by Devers?

Paul Swydan

3:37

More the latter.

The Hamburglar

3:38

Question: Has there ever been a fanbase of a non-WS winning team that actually liked their manager's "pen management"

Paul Swydan

3:38

Uh, probably last year's Cleveland Indians?

Ernie Bank$

3:38

What "taco" flavored soylent green is your favorite taco bell item?

Paul Swydan

3:39

Cheesy Gordita Crunch, by far.

MAKE THE PEYTON MANNING ADS STOP.

Kevin

3:39

hp, that's rad

Brandon M

3:39

Will there be a separate chat for CHC-WAS or will there be overlap between the two games?

Paul Swydan

3:40

No, same window. Just stay right here. Craig will be by when CHC-WAS starts.

Matt

3:40

Paul - multiple times this post season, from each MLBN, FS1 and TBS, they have shown pitches from the camera behind the catcher. Why. Why why why why why?!?!

Paul Swydan

3:40

They need to show you how much money they're spending on this telecast.

Jake Lamb of God

3:40

I haven't kept up with Devers on defense, has he struggled like the announcers have said?

Paul Swydan

3:41

He made 14 errors, and he is a bit, uh, portly, so it's an easy narrative.

But his DRS was -1, and his UZR was -3.5.

I don't think he's been AS bad as people think.

3:42

And the UZR breakout shows he can turn a double play and that his range is fine. The mistakes have seemed mostly mental to me. Willing to work with that.

Guest

3:42

Paul is correct. Close second is the Crunchwrap Supreme

Paul Swydan

3:42

I'd have Crunchwrap Supreme in the top 5, but I'll go Steak Quesarito and Chicken Supreme Chalupa in between.

Sonny

3:43

He can either be a pizza selling tv man or a senator, your call Paul

Paul Swydan

3:43

Damnit.

Kevin

3:43

WINNER! WINNER! WINNER! First and only soylent green reference. Chat over.

Paul Swydan

3:43

OK, bye everybody!

Brandon M

3:43

Sale is showing why you throw your best pitcher in a playoff scenario. Even though it didnt work for Houston, I still believe its the right call

Tyler

3:43

Devers has made a lot of errors but has also made a lot of great plays

LegallyEagle

3:43

Are the Red Sox going to overspend to add a slugger like JDM or Jay Bruce this offseason?

Paul Swydan

3:44

If JD Martinez wants to DH, then I'd be all about that. Hanley can play 1B for one year.

But I doubt it.

Bottom line is the Sox already have a high payroll and need to lock up JBJ, Mookie and Xander soon.

Unless there's going to be a big philosophical shift on paying the luxury tax, or they don't want to retain their homegrown players, I can't see it.

Unless it's a super short-term deal. 2-3 years.
