    I'm just glad Dave Roberts has been worse at managing the pen than Hinch this series. Hinch just doesn't have anyone reliable, but Roberts has just overused a good pen and now they are looking just like the Astros bullpen

    just home from game. Best insane amount of money i've spent on anything ever.

    -unbelievable back and forth tonight
    -I wanted Peacock for 1, McHugh to get the ball, and LukeGreg. Only one of those things really worked like I hoped. Let's get more LukeGreg in Games 6/7 I guess?
    -I don't have a huge issue w/Springer's dive. You can't decide last second to not dive...you're committed at that point on a play that fast-moving. I'm annoyed he didn't find a way to short-hop the ball and keep the play in front of him, though.
    -Need to hold down Bellinger's bat back in LA
    -Altuve Altuve'd the **** out of the Dodgers. Need anything? He's right there for you. What a massive, massive stud.
    -Bregs. Just knew he'd find a way to show up because the moment is never too big for him. Didn't know it'd be there at the end like that. wow.
    -Dodgers fans right by us got booted--my best guess is they were caught screwing in the bathroom or something? Nice people.

    Team is due for a romping on road and man would that be nice on Tuesday. I’ll take our chances against Rich Hill a second time.

    Sleep doesnt exist anymore. We need these guys to close it out in game 6 or I might die of sleep deprivation

    Thinking back to when Keuchel told Verlander, “you won’t regret it” ... now he has a chance to win the World Series on Tuesday.

    Damn.

    Going to work very shortly. No coffee is going to keep me down today, this is by far one of the best World Series game.

    Hinch's best managerial move last night:
    1. Not pitching Ken Giles (he would of been booe'd shown on camera, or pitching).
    2. Derek Fisher

    If Giles is going to get redemption, it would be in LA.

    I'd expect either Morton or McCullers will be available in GM 6.

    I think you have all hands on deck, including McCullers & Morton, in the Pen for G6, but obviously reserve M&M for special situations - up and must make a move to Pen.

    On maybe 3 hours of sleep Thank God it’s an off day. Couldn’t handle another game tonight.

    The alternative is leaving in the starter longer and Astros already likely have won the series. Astros bats have just beat the Dodgers pen.

    Bregman has had an RBI in EACH game this series.

    Kershaw sets MLB record for most HRs surrendered in single postseason.

    Not as dumb as your suggestion to suspend Yuli for the whole series after Game 3, but close.

    Speaking of bad decisions by Dave Roberts, going with Brandon Morrow out of the pen was probably the worst decision of the series. And I love him for it.

    No. And he shouldn't *pitch* again this series.
