Is it just me or is the fact that Buehler's pants don't reach his shoes more interesting than how tight they are?
AvatarDan Szymborski

He wears David Eckstein's pants
Chet Manley

Is it more important? (Not trying to sound snarky). I mean, they're all just elimination series. Just a matter of when you're eliminated. It's not like choking in G5 of the DS is fine and people say, "It's no big deal, not like it was the WS or anything."
Ben Clemens
8:26
It is, in that playing well there increases your odds of winning the WS more
if the goal is just to win World Series, playing well in the World Series is great

Mookie Betts in a non red sox uniform makes me sad 😥

Does anyone agree with me that Mookie has surpassed Trout as the best player in the game?
AvatarDan Szymborski
8:26
Someone does.
8:27
But I don't agree

Everyone knows I'm 42!
Ben Clemens

I would still take Trout
I think Trout should probably move to a corner soon, though....

Think Smoltz is annoyed that Betts is batting leadoff?
AvatarDan Szymborski
8:27
Smoltz being annoyed is like yummy ginger snaps
Ben Clemens
8:27
No, Betts is fast
He probably doesn't notice all the dingers and thinks Mookie looks like a leadoff hitter
Joe
8:28
Has Smoltz always been this annoying?
Ben Clemens
8:28
I don't th ink so!
I think he got worse as time went on

If you had the under on 29.5 minutes into the WS for a David Ecktsein reference in the chat, collect your money at the window.

Renfroe is a "terrific" outfielder?
Ben Clemens
8:29
You know, maybe?
Definitely has a terrific arm
And he grades out really well, though I understand some skepticism

In 3 years, Verdugo and Downs > Betts and Price
Ben Clemens
8:30
I..... don't even close to agree with this take
Derek

Renfroe made that one nice play last round!
Dave Roberts

FWIW in my OOTP save I re-signed Betts to 10/420 then traded him back to the Red Sox after two years because he only put up 5 WAR
Ben Clemens
8:31
I mean, I don't think he's great, but he's serviceable

does anyone else hear "steal a base, steal a taco" to the tune of "save a horse, ride a cowboy"? just me?
Will you accept this rose

which player in this series is most likely to be a bachelorette contestant in a future offseason
maranville

It would be pretty funny if not a single base is stolen this world series
Ben Clemens

I pick on Smoltz a lot, but I could listen to him explain little details all day. Just wish he enjoyed modern baseball.
Ben Clemens

Tyler Glasnow struggling to find the zone? Who could have seen that coming?

you can always tell when some producer feeds them a tidbit

I really enjoyed the Ringer article on the people behind football broadcasts

There are a ton of spotters and stats people we never hear about
