espn loves them some in-game interviews.  Anything to avoid paying attention to and calling the actual game.

I don't know the vid rules for 2020, anything to this?  I'm guessing no, but worth a shot.

 

maybe he checked on atbat or savant

It’s time we stopped worrying about the Oakland and focus on the Mariners. So go A’s! Sweep Seattle! Biggest series of the season.

Yep. In this absurd season (don't get me wrong- I prefer some baseball to no baseball) with 60 ish games played, no fans, maybe a playoff bubble etc., I can't see any benefit to being the 3 seed vs the 6 seed vs the 8th seed or whatever the hell it is how this thing is set up.  Just get in. Nothing else matters. Go Oakland.

1) Seattle won’t finish with a .500 record (they’d need to go 9-5 over their last 14 with 12 of those against A’s, Padres and us)

2) If we don’t finish with a .500 record, I’d just assume stay home in October.

so here’s to a strong 7-6 finish!

I've seen enough to know we are going to suck once in playoffs so I don't really give a shit, but it would be better to make it than not.

That’s the spirit. 
what if we win the World Series?  That’s not likely to happen but it’s a serious question.  How would you feel about this team and season?  
that’s an off day question for anyone to answer...

Yeah- I don’t think it’s happening, but if it did I think I’d buy a shirt and hat and then promptly forget it ever happened. It wouldn’t make up for losing last year to me. 
by contrast if Texas won a national title I’d be as excited about that as just about anything short of Vy in 2005. I don’t know if any title could be as special as that one bc it felt like it should count for double it was so badass.

I'd buy several hundred dollars worth of World Series Champions gear and I'd grin at all the dirty looks I got while wearing it.

This. Think Nats fans give a shit about not winning the division last year?

A streaking team will probably win it. Astros are capable of streaking.  I would be ecstatic if we won, but the team still needs significant work.  Dodgers have had the "best" team for 3 years now.  Their fans are a shitshow who make asterisks hats.  Actually winning matters more than having a team built to win. 

Also this season will have a display in Cooperstown all to itself.  Its historic. No asterisk to it. It will be remembered more than most regular seasons. 

That being said, this team needs serious work and isn't winning shit.

Given how well we've played in CA this season, I like our chances in the playoffs....

Just have to get past the first round.

If JV comes back that will give us 2 starters, then we just need a few young throwaway support staff to test positive and get games postponed a few days until JV and Grienke are rested again.  Repeat cycle as needed.

Magic number is 11 and we own a tiebreaker over Seattle.

 

I mean, that’s good news, I guess.  But also kind of depressing.

13 games in 13 days and other than Maldonado, this should be the lineup for every one of them.  Garneau and Diaz are the only other names that should make an appearance in a starting lineup.

That’s a grown-ass-man, playoff caliber lineup.

I don’t recall the last time I saw that

Let's see what you do against our shittiest players.  If you give up a hit you are out until 2021

challenge accepted!  /dusty

AT&TSW saying this is our 4th game all year with our full lineup.  Umm, why no Yordan?
