2015 MLB Postseason Thread

[snipezo]

I hope the Royals get swept based on the fact that they have Alcides Escobar as their lead off man lol. 

 

[Mexi]

They have alex gordon and ben zobrist but still use escobar cause he had a hot streak last season. Amazing

Only other manager in the playoffs i could see doing something like that is don mattingly

Luckily zaidi and friedman do the lineup now

 

[snipezo]

They have Alex Gordon batting in the 8th spot ffs. 

 

[Mexi]

Ned Yost lucked his way into world series game 7 and bought himself extra time
He was totally getting fired last year! He hasnt changed

 

[Mexi]

Oh man im ready for corey seager's playoff debut
He matches up well with degrom

Idk if the dodgers will win. Hope so :/

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Mexi vs. FPS, which one would I have more fun with their team losing? Tough call

 

[elcheato]

Considering the Cubs are winning it all they're both losing

 

[CameronCrazy06]

But which one loses first

 

[cruzg24]

Damn it, its 9:45am CST and Im already nervous.

 

[Mexi]

I need the first two games cause game three is laughable
Brett anderson vs Harvey

 

[Mexi]

But which one loses first

dodgers lose so much ive adapted to look forward to the offseason more than the regular season lol
I love rumors and the winter meetings

Like my early prediction. Trade puig for harvey or strasburg and sign jason heyward

 

[elcheato]

Why would either of those teams do that?

 

[Mexi]

cause puig is dynamic when healthy and cheap

I could see harvey more than stras, but the overall theme is I expect puig to be dealt for pitching and for the sabr front office to chase jhey

 

[elcheato]

I'm not understanding why the Mets would want to deal Harvey. Cause he had an innings limit after surgery? You're not getting a young, established ace for Puig

 

[elcheato]

Maybe it could have happened if you sold high (last year), but right now is not selling high

 

[Mexi]

Perhaps
His deal is so team friendly that i think teams would risk it
25 years old next season and 3/24 remaining

He was just injured this season. If hes healthy, hes still really good

 

[Mexi]

But this is for after the dodgers are eliminated (if?)

I admire stroman pitching game 2 despite missing 95% of the season
Love it

 

[Mexi]

Love stroman's #6

Single digit pitchers are very rare
It's an old unwritten thing that was passed on for years. Every once in a while you get one tho
Its not a bad unwritten, its just there obviously

 

[elcheato]

 

[Mexi]

Rangers smell like the Giants
Pick a year >.<
