Going to regret letting Rowson go I'm afraid
He apparently has a thing going
And we let it walk
Thinking Roccos success had a lot to do with a couple real good assistants.
I still believe in Rocco tho
His TB background will be helpful in improving what happened this year (I hope)



Rowson as a bench coach under Donnie Baseball, with young hitter to mold, could bode well for the Marlins.

I get the Marlins got after it early, and Shelton didn't take the Pirates job a few weeks after losing Rowson.

Was bad timing and all. But hurt. A lot.

Rays pitchers set playoff record in a 9 inning game: 18 Ks.

Yankees[sm=LAUGHY37.gif]

Embarrassing record.

Still can't figure out what Falvey and Levine were thinking with Nick Anderson. Baffled me at the time too. He's local, which we usually love around here. He was lights-out in the minors. Only thing against him was age. But who cares? That could be a benefit too. He's not even a free agent until 2025. Play it year-to-year through arbitration. So stupid.

Absolutely one of their worst decisions

Anderson was unbelievably good yesterday




twinsfan -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (10/7/2020 9:02:33 AM)

Why did Clevinger only go 1 inning? Was it the injury? Walks? Combination?

Probably saved the series for TB

Keep it going, Rays! I don't want to root for the Astros to go to the WS.

Yes, you do. [:D]




SoMnFan -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (10/7/2020 9:14:53 AM)

Mike Clevinger made it only two pitches into the second inning of his postseason debut for the Padres before leaving with the same elbow injury that sidelined him during the first round. San Diego's heavily worked bullpen couldn't keep putting up zeros -- or keeping runners off base, even though the Padres gave up only four hits.




SoMnFan -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (10/7/2020 9:15:38 AM)

had given up 3 walks by then
Dodgers basically are willing to hit with 2 strikes. Every guy
Extremely patient ballclub

It will be interesting to see what I do if it's Astros vs Rays.

I will root for Astros over Yankees, easy.

Will be good for the game to have an Astros/Dodgers WS.

Actually, if the Astros win the World Series this season on the up-and-up it proves they are a great team.

Quite honestly, they shouldn't even be eligible
A real commissioner would have seen to that




SoMnFan -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (10/7/2020 9:48:37 AM)

The league left it up to the Twins to make a statement in that first series
"these guys are beat down, send them packing"
And instead, we emboldened them.
[X(]

They were at a tipping point, and we let them up
And right now they are living off that high of regaining the momentum they never should have regained.

It has humbled them and now they are out to win a legit title.

Astros players are telling people behind scenes they’re focused, mad, and very into the idea of avenging themselves against what they consider haters. Like, say, the A’s, Yankees, Rays and Dodgers. Will be good theater. People who know these guys think they can run the table.

That's from a NY baseball reporter


Responses:
How is it so incredibly impossible that this group of guys have no self awareness.

No one is a "hater." People are displeased you ran a massive cheating operation and it went unpunished.



The #Astros dealt with no fan backlash thanks to empty ballparks in 2020.

They cheated and went completely unpunished.

Now they’re playing an odd victim stance because they aren’t heralded as the organization once was.

4 more Big Uns today
Braves/Marrrrrrrrrlins right now




Mr. Ed -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (10/7/2020 1:34:25 PM)

Grienke has a sore arm. "May" pitch again in the ALDS.

His start vs the Twins was his last.




SoMnFan -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (10/7/2020 1:46:42 PM)

Braves go up 1-0 early




SoMnFan -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (10/7/2020 1:48:25 PM)

These NL teams do realize we aren't playing low-scoring ball over here in the AL, do they not? [:D]
Definitely two contrasting leagues. Still
Pads are trying to correct that it seems. Dodgers have.
