Cardinals may never lose again
― Michael F Gill, Wednesday, 29 September 2021 02:58 (two years ago) link
they're gonna lose in the wildcard game and suddenly that will be that
― mookieproof, Wednesday, 29 September 2021 03:28 (two years ago) link
lol that would be so insane.
― Tracer Hand, Wednesday, 29 September 2021 07:54 (two years ago) link
though maybe not any more insane than the dodgers having a 100-win season and going one and done.
― Tracer Hand, Wednesday, 29 September 2021 07:57 (two years ago) link
Honestly they’ll win the WC then lose the division series

One absolutely bonkers thing I noticed today - this season could very well end with no hitters over 7 fWAR. Going all the way back to 1884 when the NL expanded beyond 112 games, I can only find 2 seasons where that happened, 1900 and 1918. Didn't even happen in the strike seasons. Most seasons it doesn't come remotely close to happening.

Obviously there were a lot of injuries this year but this is extreme
― ✖, Wednesday, 29 September 2021 18:44 (two years ago) link
er expanded to 112 games, not beyond
what the fuck Devin
Devin Williams is being placed on the 10-day IL with a fractured right hand. He told us he had too much to drink after Sunday’s celebration, got upset about something and punched a wall with his pitching hand. He will need surgery. “If I could take it back, I would.”— Adam McCalvy (@AdamMcCalvy) September 29, 2021

Didn’t this happen to a Braves pitcher this year too
― Michael F Gill, Wednesday, 29 September 2021 20:27 (two years ago) link
happened to alex reyes in 2019
not sure "happened to" is right, but
― typo hell #6: i really don't much at all (Karl Malone), Wednesday, 29 September 2021 20:33 (two years ago) link
You're thinking of Huascar Ynoa, who at least had the decency to punch something after a bad game

Brewers have weird luck with that sort of thing. Grienke missed his first month because of a pickup basketball game during Spring Training. Lucroy dropped a suitcase on his hand. Chris Narveson cut one of his fingers open trying to re-lace a glove. JJ Hardy hurt his hand in a walkoff celebration. If I recall correctly we also had a guy drop a bowling ball on his foot

well yeah, they're all hungover

yeah, even the announcers were like "things are a little fuzzy today, haha!" and it's the b-team today for sure

i'm sure they'll still find a way to pull this off. cardinals devil magic never sleeps

keeping it real tonight in the AL WC <3

right?? i feel like It’s Happening

Sox/Nats was intense
Jays made last night way more interesting than it needed to be aswell.

if soto doesn't start burying the sox i'm rescinding my MVP vote

athletic article yesterday suggested that no veteran name manager will want to put up with preller’s micromanaging, but i imagine some combination of money + having good young players will do the trick

biggest AB of soto's career right here

sox are killing me here. renfro loses it in the… twilight? why’s he playing center in the 8th inning of a 1-0 game anyway??
― Tracer Hand, Saturday, 2 October 2021 23:18 (two years ago) link
That pitch the Boston reliever was so upset about: could have been called a strike, but not an obvious strike by any means.
― clemenza, Saturday, 2 October 2021 23:20 (two years ago) link
(xpost) For you and me, but not for Soto, I don't think.
― clemenza, Saturday, 2 October 2021 23:22 (two years ago) link
Soto's a bum

so the sox and yankees will take the wild cards with wins on sunday; with losses, they'll at least get a game 163
boston won the season series against each of the other three, so should play at home in case of ties
chris sale is slated to pitch for the sox tomorrow in what is not now a must-win game -- but if they lose they could face two straight must-win games instead of one. do you still start him?
also the yankees are facing michael wacha tomorrow, which would seem to bode well for them
― mookieproof, Sunday, 3 October 2021 00:46 (two years ago) link
Always bet against post-rookie Wacha

Even this Mariners game right now is nuts.

Still a chance for a four-way wild card tie going into the last day of the season
― Michael F Gill, Sunday, 3 October 2021 04:54 (two years ago) link
omg if there’s a four-way tie boston and toronto would be at home for game 163 and the yankees would choose which one they wanted to play
CURRENT POSSIBILITIES (YES, THIS ALL COULD HAPPEN)Four-way tie: Boston, Toronto, New York, SeattleThree-way tie 1: Boston, Seattle, TorontoThree-way tie 2: Boston, New York, SeattleThree-way tie 3: Boston, Toronto, New YorkThree-way tie 4: Toronto, New York, Seattle— Jeff Passan (@JeffPassan) October 3, 2021
― mookieproof, Sunday, 3 October 2021 05:05 (two years ago) link
the yankees would choose which one they wanted to play
That's amazing. Win or lose, at least you wouldn't have to play whichever team you insult again.
― clemenza, Sunday, 3 October 2021 05:09 (two years ago) link
very much want this to happen
― mookieproof, Sunday, 3 October 2021 05:18 (two years ago) link
that is insane
― mens rea activist (k3vin k.), Sunday, 3 October 2021 10:52 (two years ago) link
The Jays will need to reach the WC game via tiebreaker anyway so I'm rooting for the most chaotic possible outcomes. Four way tie!

If you're not watching the Jays broadcast, you might not know this: Vlad has now hit more HR than anyone 22 or younger ever (passed Eddie Matthews).

Second most in a season for a blue Jay too.
