    Don't care for using Verlander either.

    i didn't like it mainly because it rained. in this weather ground balls are so much slower and rollers like that bunt give Altuve less time to get that base.

    though i guess technically you can argue that it works against the infield...

    Burning JV now is a bit of a gamble but I honestly like the move. Sale is on point today and you have to try to matchup. Plus you still have DK for Game 5.

    When does the ALCS start? Is there a set date for Game 1 or is it hinging on what happens in the 2 ALDS series?

    Odd, I didn't hear the entire park explode in anger with that call.

    Is the rain going to hit again soon? Cause if so, using JV might backfire big time if there's a delay
