Maybe weekends, but then it could still be tough to do if there are doubleheaders I guess. Also, the more exciting vibe is because it is the last day of the year. Wouldn’t feel this way if it was game like 30 for every team.

Yeah I gotta figure out how productive I need to be Mon-Wed for work haha

Based on some of our lineups the past month, our manager doesn’t think so.

They are also about to have 3 days off so if they haven’t pitched in a few days, you pretty much want to pitch them this weekend.

I really wish the Rays didn’t blow that game a few days ago now. We still have a chance but I’m not expecting Astros to get swept.

Yeah, it’s a little weird. A game 3 start for him is like 9 days away.

Weird. You think they would try to give each game a 3 hour block starting around noon, 3, 6, west coast game at 9.

Pretty sure they play games as early noon when there are 4 LDS games.

Anyone use Hulu TV? I currently split YouTube TV with 2 other people and we have not had any issues. Can you have 3 people watch at one time with Hulu live TV? Obviously this won’t be a problem for me until next season but my friend and brother (who I split with) like hockey.

Cespedes, who is an AA ball and Colas, who isn't even in the org yet and is kind of a big guy himself? (I know he slimmed down a lot during COVID but pre-COVID he was kind of a bigger guy).

I was about to ask how old the poster is and where they are from haha

Been going on a lot of walks in the middle of the day since I work from home and the job I started in March’s workload isn’t overwhelming like my last job. It’s just not enough and decided that I need to start going on a bike ride every morning to start the day for at least 30/40 mins (at least to start) and hopefully build up to an hour. Today was day 1. Here’s to losing some weight!

And we were a Machado signing away from him being the long-term 2B (or possibly moved to the OF I guess if he didn’t improve).

How have they been lately? Just glancing at their numbers, it looks like all 3 had good seasons. Glad Greinke is likely to only be available out of pen. Edit: actually, Greinke looks like the worst of the 4 so nevermind.

Hopefully game 2 isn’t too early for you but I bet it will be the second game of the day in the later afternoon (around 3).

This. With Kopech likely sliding into Rodon's spot (assuming he's gone), you're going to need more than 5 starters any way. Plus injuries happen.

Houston still has one left against Tampa, 3 against OAK.

The article I read said he bumped an umpire which is yeah, automatic suspension basically. I think he appeals and serves 1-2 games early next year.

Really 2 since they have to finish ahead.

I get this argument during the season when you really want to give guys at bats to gain experience and adjust and all that. Post-season though is a different animal. He will still get his PT against lefties. It’s fine.

Get him into at least 2 games and he should be good.

Question for those who say we can’t grade the Kimbrel trade yet: if Tepera can’t pitch in the post-season, this trade becomes an F, correct?

Exactly what I was thinking.

I’d gamble on him at that price.

Yep. Offer the QO and move on.
