Wild Card/LDS Thread

Anybody with a functioning set of eyeballs, and whose baseball playing experience is limited to just a game of 500 in the backyard at 12 years old, can tell you that ball wasn't going to be caught. But, whether or not Reddick could have conceivably caught the ball is irrelevant. Once that ball crossed the yellow marker, and was headed over the railing, or even on path to hit the railing, then Reddick had no more right to that ball than the fans did. At that point, it's a battle of player vs fan. Of course, there wasn't much of a battle vs the fan because Reddick had already lost the battle vs gravity.

In any event, fuck Reddick. Couldn't have happened to a bigger douche. Dude is easily the biggest whiner in the game today. When you're hitting .220 you really need to stop bitching at the guy behind the plate every time you get caught looking, and spend more time in the batting cage.

He's most overrated rat on that team...he needs to spend less time growing that beard and more time trying to stay over the Mendoza line. A little off the top might give him more ups next time.

Gray vs. JV in Game 5...I like it.

Two postseason facts, the Tigers own the Yankees and Verlander owns the A's. The only downside now is that you probably don't get Scherzer/Verlander until Games 3 and 4 but it would set up for them to go in Games 6 and 7 most likely.

Why wouldn't Scherzer pitch game 2?

[Killian]

He will. Sanchez, Scherzer, Verlander, Fister.

Yeah, didn't look at the calendar...Scherzer threw Tuesday (in relief) so you'd think he's more than fine to start on Sunday night. I mentioned in the other thread, the way the schedule sets up...you should be able to have Scherzer/Verlander in Games 2/3 and 6/7 on regular rest. Me likey!
