What happened to Giolito?

I am with you there. The great thing is that this approach could still result in 95-96 wins and ahead oh Houston for the 2 seed. Push everybody hard to get a 50-60% chance at the 2 seed verses prioritizing health and still having a 10-20% chance at the 2 seed. Those are just my estimates of the odds. Make adjustments to my estimates if you like. I think prioritizing health is the play.

Sorry, I was wrong. It has the clinching games from first 2 rounds as Krankin said, all 4 WS games and a bonus world series DVD. 7 total.

I have a set with every game. I don't remember where I got it though, but they do exist.

Hopefully we can see all of those games with the app. Pumped for this year!

only 5?

There you go! I like a relatively short rope with crochet on deck but go Dane! This is what it’s all about. Live the dream boys!

got it. Thanks, makes sense now. So that is a "Sunday" lineup for the scrubs then.

But Lopez is right handed

Did I imagine it or was Jose signaling Eloy that no need to slide on that play? I think he just slid there for show. He was well ahead of the throw.

I absolutely remember and have been thinking the same thing.

The results of these games as far as wins and losses are not that important. Seeding may change, so what. We will likely still win the division but either way what matters is getting ready for the playoffs. One good thing on that note is that Lopez stepped up even when the defense was kicking it around behind him. We are going to need all the pitching we can get if we are to be successful in this format. Sox young arms are going to be tested. I am looking forward to see how it unfolds.

You are not taking in to account that Hahn negotiated the contracts that created the surplus value that made those trades possible.

I agree that loading up the playoff roster with pitching is crucial. That's why my thoughts went to leaving EE off for the emergency catcher. Both McCann and Yas will pick up ABs that would have gone to EE. Either emergency catcher also offer some pinch hit value.

Is there room to roster either Collins or Mercedes for the playoffs? If we need that spot for a pitcher, would leaving EE off and adding Collins (my preference cuz LH) be the play? Super Jimmy and Yas can safely play every day then.
