2016 MLB WS Cubs Vs Indians

[DaveGallagher]

Please, we have it on good authority that manager's decisions can't possibly matter.

As long as they're managing clubhouse personalities, that's all that matters. The players play the game of course!

Edit: and his bench obviously sucks. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't.

 

[Frank Fenway]

Are we watching the same game? He's given up 3 runs over 5 innings. That's mediocre.

I wasn't being nice to Lester. Vintage Lester = suck.

No, the good authority says that they all do head scratching things.

 

[phrenile]

I'd love to see Miller try starting again. That would be a fun experiment to follow.

Daniel Bard pitched three innings this year for the Palm Beach Cardinals.

 

[Nator]

The hipster Broadway set designer lap-top commercial makes me want to break things.

 

[rembrat]

No, the good authority says that they all do head scratching things.

Yea. That's what they don't understand. MADDON WOULD NEVER LEAVE IN HIS CATCHER LIKE FARRELL. Oh wait, he did.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Yea. That's what they don't understand. MADDON WOULD NEVER LEAVE IN HIS CATCHER LIKE FARRELL. Oh wait, he did.

but Contreras had already PH earlier in the inning - so why not go all in?

 

[Al Zarilla]

Buck loves Francona tonight.

 

[Beomoose]

Buck loves Francona tonight.

Amazing what a change of address will get ya

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Daniel Bard pitched three innings this year for the Palm Beach Cardinals.

Daniel Bard never knew how to pitch, he just got by on stuff. Miller knows how to pitch.

 

[Beomoose]

Joe Maddon,
Super Genius

 

[Ale Xander]

Wait, did someone compare Dan Bard to Andrew Miller?

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Lindor is on a hot streak like X was early in the year

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has been trying to figure out what the hell he was talking about

 

[Ale Xander]

Baez is the anti-Pedroia

 

[Laser Show]

Wait, did someone compare Dan Bard to Andrew Miller?

I mean all 2006 UNC Tar Heels are the same right?

 

[glasspusher]

Dude you were like negative ten during Stanley's wild pitch

That to me was the worst part of that game (resumes rocking back and forth)

 

[glasspusher]

When I was in grad school in Cleveland, my advisor was named Miller.

Bard was a lot better than Miller in 2010 and 2011. Which means nothing and proves nothing, but was cool back then.

 

[shawnrbu]

I wouldn't feel good at all with Allen having to get 5 outs.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

should have taken ball 4...

 

[shawnrbu]

Davis isn't exactly Andruw Jones in CF, is he?

 

[glasspusher]

I wouldn't feel good at all with Allen having to get 5 outs.

Would you feel good at some?

 

[shawnrbu]

should have taken ball 4...

Not as bad as Kimbrel, but if you look at 6 pitches against Miller tonight, you walk.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Rajai is still damn good at 36 YO.

 

[glasspusher]

Zobrist cares!

 

[shawnrbu]

Zobrist owns Miller.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

with Schwarber you hav eto stay with Miller here

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Zobrist owns Miller.

He owned Kluber too

 

[Lowrielicious]

sounds

should have taken ball 4...

sounds easy when you say it like that..

 

[Cumberland Blues]

Tito going a bit far with Miller here... I would have brought Allen in for Zobrist

 

[trekfan55]

with Schwarber you hav eto stay with Miller here

I guess, but at 40 pitches and a game tomorrow where you may need him...

Edit: And of course he gets the K

 

[SoxinSeattle]

I once drove through Cleveland and Miller is a shitty beer.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Miller Ks the linebacker

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Not as bad as Kimbrel, but if you look at 6 pitches against Miller tonight, you walk.

Actually, this was exactly like Kimbrel.

 

[Ale Xander]

Shaw is going 2 or 3 innings tomorrow?

 

[DeadlySplitter]

got it done but took a hell lot of pitches.

 

[Couperin47]

The NFL should look into hiring some of MLB's scriptwriters, they are killing it this year

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Shaw is going 2 or 3 innings tomorrow?

Might be Salazar

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Theo wouldn't give the Yankees Schwarber for Miller.

 

[Lowrielicious]

Theo wouldn't give the Yankees Schwarber for Miller.

This isn't the only series this postseason where Miller on the opposite team would make things a lot different.

 

[glasspusher]

Cramp! Cramp cramp cramp.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Miller was gettable today. Not nearly as sharp as the first 2 series.

 

[trekfan55]

So, what, rainout tomorrow would force 4 games in a row?

In the WS I think they keep the travel days and keep moving forward.

 

[rembrat]

Perez chases another pitcher.

 

[uncannymanny]

This Cleveland team is inspiring. Not really a household name in the bunch.

 

[dynomite]

Eh. A 5 Game ALCS and a 6 Game NLCS, no walk offs or extra inning games (although Montero's slam in Game 1 of the NLCS was great).

We started with a bang with Orioles/Jays, and Dodgers/Nats was great, but I'm hoping for some classic games in this series.

 

[rembrat]

But but muh genius.
