Off the top of my head can think of a bunch of relievers like Tekulve, Henke, Eric Gagne, Valverde. Two Tigers starters who wore were Denny McLain often and Nate Robertson, but no no-nos.

monkeytargets39 Posted Friday at 09:36 PM Share Posted Friday at 09:36 PM Apparently Astros aren’t gonna go beyond 6 years for Bergman. Personally I don’t want him, but I thought he’d for sure sign back with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdahoBert Posted Saturday at 01:24 AM Share Posted Saturday at 01:24 AM I’m sincerely trying to watch this World Series, but I just have no skin in this game. I might as well be watching an HGTV program featuring a preppy Instagram couple who’re trying to remodel their guest bathroom for under $200,000. I just can’t care about the outcome. In this World Series there are big, big, stars and lots of history, but it’s still isn’t the bolivian marching powder I got used to scoring in our own hood just this last season.

Sports_Freak Posted Saturday at 01:25 AM Share Posted Saturday at 01:25 AM Flaherty's price tag goes up with every inning he shuts the Yankees out. 😆 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasfh Posted Saturday at 01:41 AM Share Posted Saturday at 01:41 AM (edited) Man, we sure could have used this Flaherty in the playoffs. EDIT: lol, and not 30 seconds later … Edited Saturday at 01:42 AM by chasfh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordstanley Posted Saturday at 02:10 AM Share Posted Saturday at 02:10 AM Dodger Stadium is the 3rd oldest stadium in MLB, behind only Wrigley and Fenway. Opened in 1962, it is now as old as Tiger Stadium was in 1974. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordstanley Posted Saturday at 02:59 AM Share Posted Saturday at 02:59 AM Game tied 2-2 in the 9th, looked for a second like the Yankees had gone ahead with a Gleyber Torres homer, but ruled a double due to fan interference. Probably the right call. Left fielder had no shot at it, but looks like it would have hit top of wall and bounced back onto field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyMarsh Posted Saturday at 03:17 AM Share Posted Saturday at 03:17 AM Not saying it was the wrong decision but wild to see an IBB to get to a guy who posted a 223 OPS+, the greatest non Bonds season in nearly 70 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordstanley Posted Saturday at 03:34 AM Share Posted Saturday at 03:34 AM These are the moments MLB has been waiting for. Yankees up by a run, bottom of the 10th, Dodgers have runners on 1st and 2nd with 1 out for Ohtani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyMarsh Posted Saturday at 03:45 AM Share Posted Saturday at 03:45 AM Can't believe Boone walked to load the bases, I know it gave him a platoon advantage but not only did it make a single beat you more importantly it forces the pitcher to throw strikes. Cortes does not have the type of command to paint the corners so Freeman knew he was gonna be getting something good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, there was already runners on 2nd and 3rd because of the LFer throwing the ball from the stands. But I agree with you, that pitcher hadn't pitched in a month.

papalawrence Posted Saturday at 03:48 AM Share Posted Saturday at 03:48 AM Other than 84 for obvious reasons, I don't think I can recall a better overall playoff season in my lifetime. Great baseball for fans. If only Vin Scully had been here to call Freddie's shot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
