MLB General Discussion (Official Thread)

To play 162 games and see your “post-season” end so quickly, after 2 games at home scoring just 1 run. That’s gotta be rough.

Poor Scrubs fans. :tibor:

Rockies played in Denver Sunday, LA Monday, Chicago Tuesday, and had enough left in the tank to win in 13. Helluva an effort. We'll see what they have left in the tank.

Well the As are going to try to Bullpen their way over the Yankees.....bold strategy

Starting RP Liam Hendricks who has a 4.13 ERA and 1.46 WHIP in only 24IP on the season :ohbrother:

Edwin Jackson is the only starting pitcher on the A's wild-card roster,

Looked up the A's starting pitchers and I've no idea how they won 97 games. Even if they somehow pulled this game out, they'd get hammered in a series.

The Rays won 90 games playing in the East. They'd have a better shot in the postseason, starting with 21 game winner Ian Snell.

Lowest payroll in MLB and Beane fields another playoff team.

Meanwhile Vottina and the 24 gimps are deep into their offseason routines.

You should be able to DFA owners and GM's.

Turns out the Rays had the lowest payroll. How they won 90 games playing in the same division as Boston and the Yanks was remarkable.

Oakland was 28th, though. The team across the bay from them, the Giants, had the second highest payroll and did jack shit with it.

Traded Archer too, who was pretty solid all season (including with the Buccos). That Rays win total simply amazes me.

Melvin's plan was cute, but if you're going to have Edwin Jackson as your only SP on the roster tonight then go ahead and start him. You may have gotten 4 decent innings out of him instead of having to bring your closer in the game in the 6th.

Then again, if you don't score I guess it doesn't really matter.
