October 13, 20187 yr 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.
October 13, 20187 yr Holy fuck, what a play that doesn’t matter. Edited October 13, 20187 yr by spystud13

October 13, 20187 yr Unpopular opinion: Roberts is a good manager. I like him as well but he tends to over manage

October 13, 20187 yr Kershaw should opt out and sign at a big discount to the Astros so they can make him a beast again.

October 13, 20187 yr Soooo... bringing in Hader to face the bottom of the order in the 5th with a 4-run lead? Does this make sense?

October 13, 20187 yr Just now, Guadaloopy said: No. Especially since they don’t normally use him on back to back days, which means he could be burned for tomorrow. Exactly.
October 13, 20187 yr Nothing about Hader’s velocity or movement is that special. His weirdass delivery does all the work.
October 13, 20187 yr Yeah, there is something about lanky, wiry pitchers that make their stuff hard to pick up. Sale has some of that too.
