Gonsolin came up huge for the Dodgers
2:04
Unless they go to an opener or something (hardly out of the question) they could start 5 homegrown pitchers in this postseason
AvatarJay Jaffe
2:05
Kershaw, Buehler, Urias, and May being the others
Tony Wolfe
2:04
he was the best pitcher on the team! and they have a lot of good pitchers!

It's weird, the Reds/Braves game has just blown by but it's still like a 2:50 pace.
Tony Wolfe
2:07
boy, can't believe farmer actually beat that
AvatarJay Jaffe
2:08
I can't believe Kyle Farmer is starting at shortstop for the Reds given that he was like an extra catcher for the Dodgers during their 2017 postseason run

I'm all for C-SS players.
Tony Wolfe
2:09
the lone player still on the roster from the Kemp/Puig/Wood trade
AvatarJay Jaffe
2:09
how is Freddy Galvis not a better SS option

Little League play from the Reds!

Dan, I have a 1978 Topps card of Ike Hampton (Angels), who had a big year at Salt Lake City in 1979, 30 homers or something. The text begins, "Combination catchers and shortstops are extremely rare..."

I didn't imagine the series of events?

what are the Reds doing on the bases today?

I miss reading the backs of baseball cards.
I *love* these mid-80s Fleer (I think) in blue that had scouting reports and strike zone heat maps
AvatarJay Jaffe
2:10
wow, that was after my time
Tony Wolfe
2:11
that almost looked like a "get picked off intentionally" play you do in little league, and it went...... poorly
AvatarJay Jaffe
2:11
I think Topps 1983 was my last set
2:12
Good lord, just seeing that play now

So is Aquino charged with a CS there?
Tony Wolfe
2:13
pretty sure, yes
AvatarJay Jaffe
2:13
and we have a run! Astros have scored via Kyle Tucker driving in Michael Brantley
only took about 3 hours of baseball between the two games to get the first one
Tony Wolfe
2:14
oh hell a third game just started didn't it

How long do you roll with Fried here?
AvatarJay Jaffe
2:15
He's only at 78 pitches but with the lineup turning over again, i think he's out at the first sign of trouble
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:16
I don't always like young corner outfielders, but when I do, I like to go with Kyle Tucker, the Projectionist's Choice.
Guest
2:16
Will undersized middle infielders, aka madrigal, get a reduction in expected power in projections thanks to Altuve’s recent season?
AvatarDan Szymborski
2:17
Not really
Remember, ZiPS is using HUGE cohorts.
and is searching for near-age guys
A few players here and there don't have a big effect.

I'm dumb and can't remember stuff this year. They don't have the ghost runner on 2nd to start extras in the playoffs do they?
