2017 MLB Playoffs (Non-Nats)

[Mathguy]

Why do you say that ?

Phyrric victory. Arizona is screwed for the series against the Dodgers.

[bluestreak]

They had to burn both Grienke and Ray to win the wild card. It screws up their pitching for the next series.

Offense dominating pitching so far.  Interesting.

[bluestreak]

But that's why these teams didn't win their divisions - good hitting, but not good pitching.

Absolutely crushing loss. Hats off to the dbacks. They played well, just as they have all year. With my squad out, fully back for the Nats to take this damn thing!

Hope he does well.    I always liked Mr. Fister.       This could be the "former Detroit starters" play offs.

red sox with an injury after one pitch to Nuñez.

[spidernat]

damn they had to carry Nuñez off the field.

Nunez had a PCL strain earlier this year and apparently aggravated it last week. The motion of his swing probably did some big damage there.

Now I’m super paranoid about Bryce. I dont think im going to exhale till November.,

Now I’m super paranoid about Bryce.

I was thinking the same thing but Harper has had 20 PA's and didn't show any signs of it being a nuisance. But there is something to be said about players who are not 100% not taking up a roster spot when they may not be ready.

[spidernat]

there have been a lot of 1st inning homers in the playoffs so far.

[dcpatti]

Back to back taters off of Chris Sale. 
Wow Astros! Wow!

Honestly I think Bryce is pretty ok now. The sheer mass of his muscle-thighs helps him a lot. Won’t make me any less nervous though.

For a second there I thought Bob Carpenter had joined the booth.
