Thanks...guess I'm not doing it right; all I got was some kind of game server.
I'll follow along on mlb.com.

You'd say he had a bad season
But it's a 'season' that has lasted 12 years (so far) and he literally is not the same kind of pitcher now as he was at the beginning. So, not a season.

(xpost) True...but his most infamous meltdowns were early, when he was at the top of his game. If they'd all been later, I'd take your point as valid.

If Gerrit Cole can't hold a four-run lead against a WC team, I say they just suspend the postseason for the rest of time and start drawing straws to determine the WS winner every year.

xxp
that's pretty strict... ALL of the meltdowns have to come later? My specific point was not him being a worse pitcher now btw.... last year's WS was pretty "infamous."
As for the "pressing" theory, when he threw 8 scoreless against ATL last year in the DS last year, why didn't he press that night?

I will now suspend CK choker talk in deference to the game at hand. Resume on Kershaw thread afterward perhaps.

i only want to make the point that i DO think less of clayton kershaw as a person because of his postseason performance

Girardi has generally been fine this week, aside from a slide or two into "age of analytics" snorting

Pierzynski has been OK when he talks nuts & bolts with Girardi, but then he comes out with stuff like "The Rays have gotta do something."

Cole goes one more?

yeah really hoping Pierzynski doesn’t get either LCSDoes FS1 have those games?

NL is TBS, AL shared by Fox network and FS1 (eg on Sunday)

More Rays pitchers tonight than Braves pitchers last night.
― Andy K, Friday, 11 October 2019 01:41 (six years ago)
so Cole wd next go Game 3 Tuesday in the Bronx
― a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Friday, 11 October 2019 01:52 (six years ago)
Finally can watch, so I saw Cole's 8th.
I'll be very unfashionably old-school here: give him one baserunner in the 9th (or one really long AB). He's thrown 107 pitches, but he sure didn't look like he was throwing tired.

congrats to all those who picked the Astros

He was tipping his pitches based on his glove height. When Glasnow brought the ball to his mitt, he positioned his hands at the height of his collar bone before delivering a fastball, and he lowered it a couple of inches before a curveball.
for sure, but remember too their camera shenaningans from playoffs last year. That's a mighty impressive record you have at home there!

definitely feels like either of the AL teams could beat either of the NL teams pretty handily
― na (NA), Friday, 11 October 2019 14:33 (six years ago)
Astros vs Nationals would be a good one, Yanks vs Cards would be a no-win situation.
― omar little, Friday, 11 October 2019 15:46 (six years ago)
They'd have to stretch Scherzer and Strasburg to the breaking point (if that's even possible), but I wouldn't be shocked if the Nationals go on to win it all. They strike me as made-to-order for one of those postseason miracle teams.
