    David Price, Chris Sale and Rick Porcello all asked Cora to start today. Yes, Rick Porcello, who pitched last night.

    Alex Cora: "I saw (Nate Eovaldi) this morning and he was telling people he's ready to go. I'm like, 'Your agent is going to kill me.'"

    We are fucked

    Eovaldi might be the dumbest man alive. He's had two TJs and was shut down for shit floating around in his elbow and he wants to pitch the day after throwing 90 pitches?

    Get a big fuck contract THEN end your career.

    That was a thing of beauty by Puig. He knew the second that ball left his bat.

    Edit: hahahahaha fucking site showed the pitcher change, the 1 out, but didn’t update the score

    I tried to be nice with my last post about getting very good at that but yeah, Dave Roberts is a fucking moron and should be fired but likely won't be.

    Going from sandy/Vazquez to swihart is a pretty big dropoff in catcher defense and framing woof

    Nunez would’ve bounced that throw and runners would be at 2nd and 3rd

    That's a crazy stat. 54-0 when leading by 4+ runs before tonight.

    Devers’ defense has really been maturing.

    Also, Brock Holt is so great.

    Edit: also I love that story about the team giving Eovaldi a standing ovation in the clubhouse after last nights (this morning?) game. Eovaldi may have gotten the loss, but he was still a hero.

    Seems like hindsight masquerading as wisdom. Just because something doesn't work out, doesn't mean it was the wrong move. Sometimes you do the best thing you can and you just get beat.

    The Ringer had an interesting article along those lines. They talk about the tremendous levels of information that teams have now which guides their choices.
    More recently, some teams have advanced even beyond that stage. “Cutting-edge batter-pitcher projections are based on batter/pitcher swing/pitch planes and the ways that those attributes interact,” the analyst says. As a consultant to teams elaborates, “There are some guys with an east-west swing, there are some guys with an up-down swing. So a sinker-ball lefty, not that there are a lot of them, versus a four-seam lefty, match up with two right-handers very differently if they have more of an east-west swing or more of a north-south swing. [Teams] are trying to optimize swing angle for pitch angle.”

    I still would be pretty reluctant to pitch Madson though because jfc

    I just thought he sounded like a bunch of the Dodgers fans second guessing Hill being pulled when Roberts said Hill told him to keep an eye on him that inning he was getting tired

    Pulling Hill is defensible.

    Going to Madson with two men on is not.

    Dude has allowed EVERY inherited runner to score this world series.

    Hey eventually* he'll keep some runners from scoring.

    *Next April, most likely.
