Its not. In the back of my mind, I'm always worried some athlete that emotional either has unnatural chemicals pumping through their body or they will turn out to be a wife beater.
Umm, every fan has to prepare himself / herself for that. There is no guaranteed winner this year. The Astros, Indians, Red Sox, D-Backs, Nationals, and Dodgers all have a legit shot to win it all, and it wouldn't surprise me one iota if any of those 6 teams took it.
Tomorrow's games are the biggest of the season. We could be tied with Cleveland or up 3 games after tomorrow.
So much for all the momentum team built. Hinch better not put Fiers or Gregerson in any combo again. Preferably not at all. Only 1 1/2 lead now.
Just don't like Hinch as a manager. Poor managing all around tonight. Hinch played with fire sending the sorriest pitchers he could find out there after McHugh went down and gave the As life.
Yeah, think I'll be bowing out of this thread. As Harry Walker would say: "Sh!tf**k! Pound the ol' Budweiser and get 'em tomorrow." Damn shame I'm not drinking tonight.
Folks hating on Feliz and Sipp and they actually pitched scoreless innings. This was all on Fiers (leadoff walk) and Gregerson.
With an expanded roster, you just can't run out Sipp, Fiers *and* Gregerson in the same game. It just can't happen.
This isn't on the bullpen..... this is on the manager. Everyone knows the guys Hinch trotted out there are gas cans. He goes to Gregerson to save the pen with the bases loaded and no one out in the 7th and ends up going to Musgrove and Giles anyway. It was also very obvious Giles wasn't mentally ready.. which isn't a shock under the circumstances.
