    Alvarez has sure gone quiet since that first 2 games of the Seattle series. He needs to wake the **** up

    Stanek should have started the 10th. WTH you saving him for Dusty?

    I’d rather not be down a run here, but batters coming up definitely have a chance to tie or win this

    Welcome to the mlb. Not little league

    you literally called hfa useless in this format. No other format changes that after game 1

    If the NBA can change to 2-2-1-1-1 format, mlb can do the same.

    Just need a run, but the way the offense has been going it looks like we'll need an absolute miracle

    I mentioned earlier in the year that Dusty has this awful affinity to allow starters to get to 5 or 6 before the hook. It's nowhere near analytical. It's his "gut feeling" So be in the regular season, bust this is the world series. JV should of got the hook.

    I'm gonna hold firm that Dusty was trying to make it so JV could potentially get the decision. Awful...just awful management.

    The nba isn’t the mlb. Nothing in the way preparation or games played is similar. Travel would be brutal and makes no sense for the mlb. Does mlb travel every night like then nba does? No. Does the nba play series for the season? No

    so no mlb cannot do the same. And they won’t. There’s a reason why it isn’t even brought up in the first place. Bc it isn’t an issue

    This game is on JV and Dusty.

    Absolutely ****ing incompetence by Dusty to let him continue in the 4th to Realmuto, not PH for Mancini, and sending Garcia out instead of Stanek.

    Try to spin it how you want but it won't work.
