Modern bats easier to break over knee than pool cues.

Travis Sawchik

9:12

I'm thinking about a really cheap pool cue

Bobert

Does fWAR account for catcher ability?

Travis Sawchik

9:13

I think only bWARP does

Or DRA, I should say

ugh

9:13

IF, and I mean IF, there is a game 5, how long a leash does Kluber get? and do you start gray or CC?

Travis Sawchik

9:14

I think Kluber would get a relatively long leash ... CC might be out at first sign of trouble

Tommy

9:14

That whistle is really annoying

Travis Sawchik

9:14

Right?

Dr Evil

Robot Umps and some sharks with some friggin lazer beams. Is that too much to ask?

Travis Sawchik

9:15

I'm not sure about the umps but everything else you said seems reasonable

Bobert

Travis that home field advantage article was very interesting.

Travis Sawchik

9:15

Thanks!

Last call for beer is happening in the 4th inning because it's already been 2h since first pitch

Travis Sawchik

9:15

Woah, really?

For everyone else who hates that godawful whistle, take solace in the knowledge that at the Trop, they'll play it when certain Yankees strike out. They did it for A-Rod and it was delightful.

Travis Sawchik

9:16

Delightful and tasteful

There has been just one prior PS decision with a team yielding 5 runs or more and zero earned runs: https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/ATL/ATL199710070.shtml

The series that gave us QuesTec

9:17

That freaking Livan Hernandez strike zone

Bobert

9:17

That whistle keeps waking up my dog.

Travis Sawchik

9:17

Do the Yankees have a pup night at the park? That must really be something

Owen

9:19

Im sad because there is a scenario in which the Dodgers win tonight and the Cubs/Nats game is rained out tomorrow, meaning no baseball

Travis Sawchik

9:19

Don't even entertain the thought

Kiermaier's Piercing Green Eyes

9:19

Modern bats are not easy to break. Every now and then a player tries, fails, and looks really dumb. (Steven Souza Jr. failed a year or two ago...that's gotta bruise.)

Travis Sawchik

9:20

That's a really bad look and the fear of failure would keep me from attempting it. I'd be the guy that knocker over water cooler or throws shit around in the dugout to release frustration

John Autin

9:20

Let's go for the 0-ER / most runs record!

Travis Sawchik

9:20

Let's do it, people

The defense has been lacking for Cleveland. Kipnis and Bruce look pretty poor in particular.

Travis Sawchik

9:21

Indians have some defensive question marks, for sure. But they high K% nature of their staff is one reason they've taken some defensive risks to sneak more offense into lineup

Blueyays

9:22

Happy Thanksgiving, Travis! Do you think there's any chance we see Strasburg come out of the bullpen in game 4 like Sale?

Travis Sawchik

9:22

Happy, Thanksgiving! I do. Gotta be all hands on deck. Worry about Game 5 if you get there

9:23

Get it?

So bad

There was a tie in the 1912 WS with 6 UER / 0 ER allowed -- by Christy Mathewson, in 11 IP. Tris Speaker tied it in the 10th with a triple + E2.

Mike

Jury still out on which yankee reliever goes in first how’s that poll doing

Travis Sawchik

9:24

Tight battle between Green and Kahnle
