Exactly. Remember Saturday when Will Smith just had a sore neck and would be in the lineup on Sunday?
Well done. :)
Yeah. It’s easy enough to not-challenge an 0-0 pitch with no one on and 2 out in the 4th. I feel confident in calling that a mistake, almost regardless of the challenge result.
Team says “knee inflammation.” Eeeeee
Shohei hit 3 homers and struck out 10 in a playoff game.
And then maybe topped it (?) by in his next home playoff game, where he went 4 for 4 with 2 2B, 2 HR and 5 (yes, five) BB. He was on base 9 times.
I said last week that if I were Andrew Friedman, Zyhir Hope and two lottery tickets would be my offer. I wouldn’t part with De Paula, Quintero or Sirota for what is essentially 2-5 playoff starts from Skubal.
This makes it seem like I’m in the right ballpark.
