OT: MLB 2019 Offseason Thread

[Emperoreddy]

Bring on the Astros

 

[New Jersey]

Serve it cold, Yanks.

Elite pitching wins out over dominant bats. I have little confidence going into this series. (But I’m still here watching)

The Yankees can get a quick kill with the way the pitching matchups line up...but the longer the series goes, the more the advantage swings back to Houston with home field and likely Cole and Verlander in the last two games.

 

[New Jersey]

Steal one in Houston, and then win all three at the Cathedral like 2017.

Let’s f***ing go.

mans sensational defense by Judge

 

[tr83]

Has Greinke, for as great as he is, ever come through in the clutch? He seems to always blow big spots

 

[Emperoreddy]

GleyBAE again!!!

 

[Emperoreddy]

GIACARLO!!

 

[Better Call Sal]

Gleyber is so good.

Great to see Stanton take one yard too.

 

[Emperoreddy]

GLEBAE AGAIN!

Up 5-0 and Tanaka dealing facing the minimum. Why go to the bullpen? Save the arms for game 2 (and later) as much as you can

 

[Emperoreddy]

That shot of the train conductor sleeping was amazing.

Losing game 1 in the playoffs. Just can’t relate.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Great start Sevo....ugh

 

[jkrdevil]

Why can’t this guy just use an old time-y external umpire chest protector?

 

[Emperoreddy]

Rain out coming. Tanaka in a must win game 4.

Then I guess Paxton 5 in another must win. No way they win two in Houston.

Not Happy Right Now. WE NEEDED PITCHING

 

[Emperoreddy]

Not Happy Right Now. WE NEEDED PITCHING

This is more about the bats totally failing though. They stranded 9 baserunners and only scored one run.

That isn’t nearly good enough.

 

[New Jersey]

Feeling good with Tanaka vs. Grienke Part II tonight.

We're still right in this thing. Go Yanks.

I feel like they blew their chance to win this series. Game 2 and lesser extent game 3 were there for the taking against Verlander and Cole. They have to beat one of them to win the series and that may have been their best shot. I also don’t think they can win a Game 7 where Houston can run out starters as relievers like in 2017.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Yanks are cooked.

 

[New Jersey]

Whatta choke.
