ALCS: Blue Jays vs Fighting Titos
- Thread starter DeadlySplitter
- Start date
Indians are going to face a very difficult decision on whether or not to leave Bauer on the roster.
They said Bauer said he put the batteries in and the propellers started, which they weren't supposed to. Did he check to see if it had an on/off switch? I can almost hear Tito asking him that.
It's not like the crowd erupted into cheering when he came out. It stayed about the same tone.
Plus, when an injured player comes out, what is the standard protocol? Cheering.
But TBS told you they were cheering because of the injury and you kept the autopilot going and parroted the same thing here. You probably also clap and cheer when the signs in the park flash and tell you to do so.
EDIT: Taking out personal attack.
You're wrong. And if you feel, for some reason, like not simply disagreeing, but taking cheap shots, maybe one of the other guys you quoted will take you up on it.
And Angel Hernandez is in the NLCS. I hate the umpires' union. Zero accountability. #robotumps
If that's the "standard," then the people who excuse it for being standard need to rethink their position
They were pretty obviously cheering because the injured player was coming out, it wasn't the polite applause and injured player gets when you see he is ok.
espn: Before the game, Terry Francona outlined a contingency plan if Trevor Bauer had to leave Game 3 early. It seems Corey Kluber will start Game 4 on short rest followed by rookie Ryan Merritt in Game 5.
I think he means the standard clapping parents do at 10 year old soccer games when Amy gets kicked in the shins and falls over and rolls around for 2 minutes before getting up.
This wasn't that.
But he got to puff his chest out on the internet, so let's just award him 5 internet points and move on.
The crowd cheered an injured player. It wasn't "about the same." And that is certainly not "standard protocol."
Other than that, you're spot on!
I went back and re-watched Bauer coming out. The "cheering" did pick up, but it wasn't like the place exploded.
Timing just appeared suspect when three separate members posted pretty much the exact same thing TBS said. The rest that I posted was dumb, but I've seen it here mentioned here many times before.
Anyway, I'll just go back to being the asshole fan that is pulling for Torono in this series.

So does Tito pull out the big guns early (miller/Shaw/Allen) if stays tied to give his offense as long as possible to score a run ?
Or try and mix+match with the rest of the guys until they get a lead then go hard?
Tough call. I say option B.

It'd make it a lot easier to pick a rooting interest if Tito weren't coaching the racial epithets.
I don't think it was his decision. Do you think if he made a comment for change, it'd have a positive effect?
I started typing before the talking head even opened his mouth. It was very obvious - couldn't miss it.
Looking at the replay a couple or three times, it looked like Mike got the ball real close to the end of the bat. Strong SOB.
Yeah, really, and it doesn't look like he creams the ball, just a solid swing. Must have great core strength. When he's on, he's on.
Is it possible that everyone said the same thing because it seemed obvious to us?
If Bill Polian was in baseball, he'd try to get Miller barred from pitching but every third game.
It's funny because they're all out to get those Patriots fans, and everyone loves a good Patriots persecution joke!
