***2022 MLB Thread: PLAYOFFS***

Side note: Graig nettles lived down the street from me when I was growing up. Always thought that was cool, but I don’t remember really ever seeing him much in the neighborhood

 

I wish I had the disposable income to travel to NY whenever they host the Astros this season. What a series that's gonna be

Eovaldi is the third pitcher to give up 5 dingers in an inning

 

He's currently hitting .310, 1.069 OPS, and on pace for 63 HR and 135 RBI lol. He won't do it, but I'd love to see the contract after that season.

 

What an insane list

 

Vlad Jr only has 1 homer in May. Need him to get hot again

 

Never heard of her

 

No offense to teixeira or giambi, but both really jump out to me as being outliers on that list. Not saying judge necessarily belongs either (although I think he will assuming he stays in NY), but those two really jumped off the page to me

 

Tag team of Clevinger and gore tonight

 

Nice to see a man who is true to his word

 

That double was a homer in 29 of 30 parks too, that extra 30 feet or whatever Baltimore added kept a 3rd one in the park.

 

jfc Mets get the go-ahead run aboard via a passed ball on a third strike with two outs B8, Cardinals up 3-2

And they quickly tie it 3-3 with a 2-out single by McNeil

 

Tony La Russa is painful to listen to good lord

Ozzie is tearing the WS apart tonight post game, he’s being brutal. Ozzie is openly trying to turn the fan base on TLR- he knows if TLR is fired he gets the job

 

Generally relievers run unsustainably high LOB% early in the season. Not Ottavino. He's only stranded 1 of the 7 runners he's inherited this season jfc

Welcome to the game, here's Arenado with a runner at third and one out

 

Chapman is the Yankees 3rd or 4th best RP.

 

So I guess 2 of 9 now since dude at 1st didn't score? Cards up 4-3 to B9

 

I've always thought Matt Moore had pretty nice facial bone structure

 

I was actually curious about this as it was happening if it was the most Ks to start a career.

 

Also Cubs called this kid up from double A today and he hits it out of Wrigley in his first at bat.

 

I flipped away from Brewers vs Atlanta but looks like Brewers have bases loaded B8 down 3-0. Nothing doing I guess

 

Trout leads off T7 with a homer to put LAA up 4-3 in Texas

 

Buzzers were on point at Fenway tonight

 

And even though he’s 1-4 (HR) tonight that gives Ward enough plate appearances to take back the lead in 4 categories again.

 

And now that Ward has the lead again, that probably means he’ll need the next two days off.

 

Dodgers have put up 8 on Merrill Kelly and his 1.71 ERA

 

Oh my god Angels

I think Eli White just scored on a single and a brutal error by Marsh in LF. That's how it was scored apparently wow

 

This has turned into a very dumb but fun inning

 

Freddie is good at baseball

 

Mets Twitter is quite concerned about Lindor

 

Last AB of that game he Kd swinging and in the AB had two whiffs on fastballs in the zone at "just" 94-95 mph

 

So many aces pitching early today, sigh

At least we get Ohtani this evening. Snell making his season debut looks like

 

Yordan has an absurd Baseball Savant page. Like he's so elite

Lindor is looking like he might have the worst contract in baseball history here soon if not already

 

Speaking of..

 

i enjoy watching aaron judge play baseball

 

Volpe for Soto, who says no? Or Peranza and Dominguez for Soto? I have little concept of trade value so no idea if either of those makes sense. And idk if the Yankees would go for Soto if they pay Judge this year.
