MLB playoffs

Colorado in not only their 3rd city but 3rd time zone in 3 days. We will see how Colorado handles travel fatigue. Freeland really stretching the limit innings wise, 140 innings in the minors in 2016, 156 w/Colorado last year, and all the way up to 203 innings this year. Cubs bats not good right now and local writer Barry Rozner described the team as "fatigued". Can't bet the over 7 1/2 here. Under the only place to look.

Nobody really truly wants Boston.

When it was 6-0 the Yankee Fans started chanting 'We want Boston" "We want Boston".

Boston is pretty fired up after 108 win season. They're Holographing each win on Buildings and Trees around town. Each win is on something.

Win 79, Andrew Benitendi on the Old Statehouse. Built in 1712, the British Crown ruled the colonies from this building.










Win 72, Mookies Betts, Boston Common Tree's





Win 88 David Price.




Craig Kimbrel

I always found that Karate Kid crouch Craig Kimbrel does before he goes into his windup a little strange.Who's his pitching coach, Ralph Macchio?

I came very close to putting a small bet on the A's yesterday.
Glad my afternoon got busy, so I passed.

Then I saw that their bullpen was open from the start.
What was up with that?

Why would you pay a starting rotation good salaries,
then sit them in your first playoff game?

Weird.

They should have used there starters in the game. I'm sure (almost) everyone had the Yankees winning the game and the A's already know they were going to loose.

Chuck Finley is rolling in his grave. He may have been an asshole, but sure cooked up some good teams in the 70's. He was as aggressive as an owner can possibly be.

He gave Baltimore Reggie Jackson for one season. That was exciting even though it didn't really work out.

Unfortunately they handled it really well.

He has to be a reliever because no one could expend the energy it takes to bob up and down for nine innings. How about those Parkinson's pitchers that shake the glove when moving to the set?
