one thing i'm curious about in this series - the dodgers are super deep and love to play righty-lefty matchups with their lineups.  the brewers are gonna go to their pen early and often, with both righties and lefties.  if you're roberts, how do you control your instinct to stack lineups, when the whole thing could change by the 2nd or 3rd inning?  how do you avoid wasting your players, who may or may not even face the guy they were inserted in the lineup to hit against?

i'm also curious to see how the dodgers bullpen does, since they're obviously gonna try to lean on their starters for innings.  kershaw is over 50 and not out of the 3rd.  not a great situation on the road facing the brewers lineup/pen.

Holy fuck, what a play that doesn’t matter.

Kimbrel’s spot on his cap is supposed to be mainly spit.

Brutal inning for Grandal. Very out of character for him. 

Kershaw will have 70 pitches through 3 at this rate.

 

 

More errors and maybe he’ll be cheap enough for the Astros to sign. 

Lucky to get out of it only down 1

Who is that in the first row?  Good Lord. 

Roberts already pinch hitting at lead off in the 3rd. Advantage Counsell

I like him as well but he tends to over manage

Without D-Rob over managing the WS last year the Stros are still looking to get off the snide.

Fucker can't pitch in the nlcs. It's mind bottling

Looks like 2 bald men snuggling under a blanket. 

Kershaw should opt out and sign at a big discount to the Astros so they can make him a beast again.

Trevor Bauer does not approve.

Soooo... bringing in Hader to face the bottom of the order in the 5th with a 4-run lead?

Does this make sense?

No.  Especially since they don’t normally use him on back to back days, which means he could be burned for tomorrow.

Exactly.

Nothing about Hader’s velocity or movement is that special. His weirdass delivery does all the work. 

Yeah, there is something about lanky, wiry pitchers that make their stuff hard to pick up. Sale has some of that too. 

Clevinger is the same. If he didn’t act like a spaz, he would be average.

He’s not that special.

all that movement and misdirection is what gives some of the asian pitchers their effectiveness.  though it typically wears off after a few years.
