Why couldn't you have put that at the beginning of your post? I read the first half, took your advice, and put $1000 down on a sweep.

I don't feel good about CJ tomorrow. This is a terrible matchup for him.
But Shields is hardly great, so maybe we win ugly.

If there was one pitcher on the staff who I'd pick to succeed in bad matchups, it'd be CJ. It always seems like he's doing exactly what he's not suppose to do. He wasn't suppose to be a starter, but he somehow wormed his way into that. Then he wasn't suppose to be any good, but he's been our MVP of the pitching staff. And then his arm wasn't suppose to hold up, but even though he's over twice the amount of innings he through last year, he still looks sharp and does not look like he's laboring.

There's no doubt that CJ has answered every question asked of him this season. And I certainly won't be shocked if he goes out there and pitches a gem tomorrow.
But he led the league in walks and doesn't hold runners on well at all. And Tampa is the most selective team in baseball and an elite baserunning team. It's a bad matchup.

CJ fans 13, walks 0, and gives up only 1 hit in 8.2 innings tomorrow. Book it.

Somebody please make sure Scoobay start the Rangers GDT today since they won game 1...he has 2 hours before game time
EDIT- Never mind.... I see we have one thread for the entire playoffs, instead of individual GDT's

They keep replaying TBS' "call" of Nelly Cruz's home run.
Could that guy have been less enthused? Come on. The guy hit a home run in the post-season. How about a little animation?
I found the TBS crews to be dreadful as a whole yesterday.

So... are we relegated to a single thread for the entire playoffs? It doesn't appear to be official.....

At least we didn't have Ernie Johnson and Craig Sager, who were covering the Twins-Yanks game.

You're not superstitious, but you're a little...stitious.

All baseball radio streams are belong to MLB. You gotta pay up if you want to stream.
Meanwhile it looks like the good Shields showed up, not the crappy one. So the anus is on CJ

Can't say this enough: Hamilton is a beast.
Although I'm getting a little worried that the Rays are making pretty good contact on CJ so far. Good to see him end that inning with a K.

I can't get that link to work so I'm using gamecast. I think they could trick up gamecast a bit... like when Treanor got hit they could have a pulsating dot with %$$%% coming out of it, and when you have a player that is in a slump have an icon of an empty bag.... that would be fun.

I also use gamecast when I cant watch b/c I like the side bar that shows the plays and team stats....but on mlb.com their game cast is way more detailed..instead of dots you actually have figures....kinda too detailed that I cant even keep track of whats going on....try and lemme know what you think
