  1. It made more sense with a healthy Musgrove...
  2. Still not buying M.Miller in the starting rotation ala Crochet after they lose Suarez to free agency...
  3. Padres just not nearly as good with RISP this year. And their rotation is a complete mess after Pivetta...at least after M.King got hurt.
  4. Wouldn't be shocked if Estrada gave up 2-3 here...have to save Suarez but he rarely goes more than one inning anyway.
  5. Machado faded down the stretch too. Looking like the Orioles' exit last two post seasons. Still think the Laureano injury was the key here...not much you can do about it at the last minute.
  6. Cease will either get bombed or pitch a gem...odds against his former team, well, not going to bet it either way.
  7. Starting to think a long Cubs' postseason run might actually put some pressure on Jerry Reinsdorf to spend. But nah...
  8. Padres Place Ramón Laureano On Injured List Due To Finger Fracture September 27: The Padres officially placed Laureano on the 10-day injured list today, per a club announcement. What good defense playing RH power hitters were available on September 27th????? The story of this game isn't going to be that Bryce Johnson would have come through in those situations. One was a really good play by Swanson.
  9. Have to score against Kittredge next inning.
  10. He would have been the third best hitter after Colson and Teel on the White Sox... This game was all about not scoring runs 2 and 3 in the early going.
  11. Anything is possible in the playoffs. Sasaki and Henriquez haven't been tested in the postseason for LA.
  12. Who was available? Martin Maldonado...Diaz??? Other than Tatis Machado Bogaerts they're a LH dominant team. If the Padres got that 3-2 lead or even 2-2 Johnson would be in for defense about right now.
  13. Cubs aren't going far in the playoffs with that rotation and Tucker/PCA not hitting...they might just have enough to take out SD with home field advantage.
  14. You're forgetting their minor league system has been gutted the last two years. They're like the 28th/29th MiLB system. Not much help available.
  15. There comes the Sheets defense. Laureano would have had that. SD is just a flawed team.
  16. Horton would have been the G1 starter. Still not sure how you're supposed to miraculously replace Laureano in the last week of the season. With who? He has been SD's best hitter...along with Merrill.
  17. Shadows having more and more of an effect... Will need to get to Cubs' pen in the 8th inning. Bottom of lineup next inning.
  18. Long way to go...lol. Last year there were like 10-12 former Sox relievers in the postseason, everywhere you looked practically.
  19. Zero confidence in Cease. Have to win this one. Dylan when he goes bad always gives up 3-5 in an inning and then you're fighting all game to come back.
  20. Despite all the big names in SD only the #18 offense. Schildt is the StL traditional NL small ball guy. Estrada Miller or Morejon need to be ready. That said, Merrill wouldn't bunt against a rhp in that situation.
  21. Welp....might need to go to Mason Miller early to stanch the bleeding.
  22. Knew those two runs that didn't score would come back to bite them...
  23. Ball not carrying well in the outfield today.
  24. Really quick hook and already to Palencia?
