2023 LDS Game/Discussion Thread

Harper looks hurt bad

 

[Remagellan]

Uh-oh!

 

[E5 Yaz]

FUCK

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

At least the arm went forward and not backward.

 

[bosox188]

Hopefully that was just a really painful but otherwise harmless knock on the bone or something. Looks like Olson's knee hit his elbow?

 

[derekson]

That looks very bad

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Maybe just funny bone or something.

 

[Comfortably Lomb]

That is really unfortunate.

 

[donutogre]

That was an incredibly weird play there. Really hope he’s ok.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Hopefully he is ok. Looks like Olson made contact with the back of the arm which is probably better than hyperextending it.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Best case, stinger. Worst case, see you in 2025

 

[LogansDad]

Oh fuck oh fuck. Please dont be as bad as that looked.

 

[Remagellan]

Hopefully that was just a really painful but otherwise harmless knock on the bone or something. Looks like Olson's knee hit his elbow?

That's what I'm hoping.

 

[The Filthy One]

Kimbrel’s wildness feels like some sort of karmic balance. Nobody should be able to throw that hard, have the ball move that much, and know where it’s going every time.

 

[natpastime162]

Need a better angle. Could be be elbow on knee

 

[patinorange]

Was that his Tommy John elbow?

 

[derekson]

Too close to take, but the Braves have been helping get themselves out all series. That’s a ball the Astros foul off seven times in a row until they get one to hit. Fucking Astros are going to win again, aren’t they?

Texas looks good. Has there been any news about if they'll activate Scherzer?

 

[E5 Yaz]

Was that his Tommy John elbow?

yep

 

[LogansDad]

Was that his Tommy John elbow?

Yes.

 

[Ted Cox 4 president]

Yes, right arm.

 

[natpastime162]

Was that his Tommy John elbow?

Yes, bats left throw right

 

[LogansDad]

Olson tried to avoid it but just couldn't.

 

[E5 Yaz]

where's the damn sideline reporter?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

The incendiary NICK CA$TELLANO$!

 

[Remagellan]

Olson tried to avoid it but just couldn't.

Olson looked like he took a knock on his knee.

 

[strek1]

Sometimes when your elbow takes a shot like that it can feel terrible at first but it just tingles and comes back OR it could be really bad.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Olson tried to avoid it but just couldn't.

Yeah, it's not on Olson. It's just an unfortunate set of circumstances. Harper got caught in between going for the ball and the bag and had to hustle to get there

 

[Looch]

Harper returned to the dugout and looks chill.

 

[derekson]

Harper back in the dugout, maybe just a bad stinger after all?

 

[natpastime162]

Yeah, it's not on Olson. It's just an unfortunate set of circumstances. Harper got caught in between going for the ball and the bag and had to hustle to get there

An advantage for the left-handed first basemen

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Tommy John doesn’t make it susceptible for more injury though does it? Don't you come back as good or better?

 

[LeoCarrillo]

Tommy John doesn’t make it susceptible for more injury though does it? Don't you come back as good or better?

He hurried back and beat the timeline. By like 4 months?

 

[LogansDad]

He isn't fully recovered yet. Still wears a contraption when running.

Also I think that's for throwing not necessarily direct contact injuries.

 

[derekson]

To answer my own question about Scherzer, here's today's update: https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/38646372/rangers-manager-bruce-bochy-pleased-progress-ace-max-scherzer-shoulder

 

[E5 Yaz]

Soto in the 9th? Really?

Got it. Well, at least he can pitch then.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Harper going back out on defense

 

[LogansDad]

Looks like Harper going back out.

 

[patinorange]

Harper going back out on defense

Good news.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

I don't know about y'all, but I'm Travis Kelce'd the fuck out.

 

[donutogre]

I don't know about y'all, but I'm Travis Kelce'd the fuck out.

It’s truly awful.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Is the new Wonka movie for kids mostly or is it like the original? From the trailer, my excitement level is zero.

 

[LogansDad]

Oh man, I think it looks great.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

I think it's supposed to be the backstory of how Willy became Wonka

 

[Remagellan]

It's from the Paddington people, so I guess yes?

I do not understand the appeal of Chalamet. he's a fine actor, but I just don't understand why he's as big as he is.

 

[ifmanis5]

Worse than a homer.

 

[donutogre]

Visually it looked cool but…yeah I have no idea who it is for. And prequels, it’s just hard to generate much narrative tension when you know what happens to the characters.
Also, fucking lead off walks!

 

[E5 Yaz]

They didn't have a righty?

 

[LeoCarrillo]

Should call it Wanka, amirite

 

[donutogre]

Worse than a homer.

A+
