[Richie Daggers Crime]

Has anyone seen a catcher give up more passed balls than this guy?

PK's mom?

Oh snap.

 

[PK Cronin]

We can all agree on that.

"Damn!"

Luis Rojas is OUT as Mets manager.

Please fire Sandy Alderson next.

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

Anyone else enjoying the playoffs?

No but I did enjoy Once Upon a Time in Queens immensely.

I loved the SF/LAD series, was rooting for SF. I truly depise the Red Sox. I dont care who wins as long as it aint Boston

I'm happy to see Houston getting their clock cleaned, until I remember that it's Boston doing it. I'm actually rooting for an asteroid or a hole to open up in the ground and swallow up BOTH teams.

 

[Dutch Frost]

On a sadder note the NY Yankees just resigned Aaron Boone to a 3 year deal.. I am puking as I write this. What happened to this organization since George died is embarrassing. They obviously will keep Cashman also and rinse repeat another year. I wanted Theo and Buck but instead I got the stat geeks with excel spread sheets.

That’s how I felt watching the Rags-Leafs game last night.

Well, they got their clock cleaned by the Braves, so both teams you hate lost.

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

Another WS win for the worst division in baseball.

Love that Houston lost, they are cheating douchebags that are the most unlikable bunch in quite a while.

Tampa Bay Lightning are more unlikable

The fact that ATL took their starter out with a NO HITTER THROUGH 5 INNINGS IN THE WORLD SERIES, makes me wanna vomit.

Baseball sucks

They won the game.

 

[Bones45]

They won the game.

If you were manager, you'd have done the same?

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

I suppose I don't understand the point of the question.

 

[Bones45]

I suppose I don't understand the point of the question.

Would you take out your starting pitcher while throwing a no-hitter in the World Series?

(for no good reason, perhaps other than pitch count -- the guy finished the 5th inning and was replaced in the 6th, IIRC)

 

[danteipp]

I finished up my two, long-running fantasy baseball leagues, ended up runner up in both, and immediately checked out of the sport for the year.

They wear freakin mittens now when running the bases.

Saying baseball sucks is being waaaay to kind.

I guess I'm confused as to why it matters what I would do? The manager took him out and the team won, which is the desired result. I'm going to a World Series parade on Friday, so I think it was a good decision.

If you're asking me if I was surprised that it happened, not really. He was effectively wild most of the game, got behind in counts, was facing the third go around of their lineup and was hanging on by a thread. I was more surprised that they yanked Fried after 6 last night because he was in command of his pitches and had switched from fastballs early on to breaking/offspeed later successfully.
