do you have a counter of active users for this chat?

Yeah, we're at ~600

Is that because Torey Luvullo doesn't get that is wrong, or because of Rodney's ego?
Dave Cameron
10:54
Because that's how their bullpen is set up. Bradley can't throw all the high leverage innings all October, so if they won't use Rodney here, then they have a problem.
The D'Backs basically are betting on getting good Rodney this month.
If they don't, they won't win, regardless of when he pitches.

I'm already Googling for archery accident pictures to send to my friends during the 9th inning implosion, as is our protocol this year.

this isn't the time to play with your closer's confidence, methinks
Dave Cameron
10:55
Agreed.

Is bunting someone 2B-3B a good move?
Dave Cameron
10:57
Generally not.

I just to home so maybe this came up already but I hate the tbs scoreboard/strike zone graphics.
Dave Cameron
10:57
This definitely came up.

if your the Rockies would you consider going to Holland in the bottom of the eighth to keep it a one run game?
Dave Cameron
10:58
Yeah.

DD clutch again

The D-Backs should’ve traded for another reliever at the deadline.
Dave Cameron
11:00
Agreed.
Especially when guys like Neshek went pretty cheap.

How can they not pinch hit for Mathis?
Jeff
11:00
Pinch hit?
Baxter
11:00
Why bat mathis? Also why not double switch bradley in last half inning?
Michelle
11:00
Very surprised they didn't pinch hit here.
Hugh
11:00
Why is Mathis hitting here?
A.
11:00
They're gonna let Mathis hit?

Mathis then Bradley's spot. Not much on offer here.

MATHIS WILL RAKE
Dave Cameron
11:01
You can't center a pitch more than that one.
And he took it...
JB
11:01
they don't have a great left handed pinch hitter on bench
ChatzMcGee
11:02
That was.... not impressive.
Poppa
11:02
Most unsurprising outcome ever

Lovullo with the 4D chess, saving pinch hitters for the high leverage 17th inning
CarrotJuice

Archie Bradley hitting a dinger would be the best
Conner from AZ
11:02
Why did Jeff Mathis just get to hit??? Why, Dave???
Dave Cameron
11:03
Managers are too worried about protecting leads when they have them and not enough about expanding those leads.
J

Archie Bradley is batting with the season on the line.  Thanks NL
Show Hey O'Tawny

I hope Bradley gets lit up next inning to punish Lovullo
