It happens all the time. Like when the Braves could have taken that unknown pitcher from the small town motel but went with the 'consensus' #1 slugger who had a hitch in his swing.

Der Meister posted:Something called a Greg Reynolds was selected before Kershaw in 2006, most recently playing for the Saitama Seibu Lions of course. He's been a free agent for a few years now. Reynolds was also picked ahead of Longoria, Lincecum, Scherzer, Andrew Miller, and Ian Kennedy. In conclusion, gently caress Dan Odowd with a heated rusty iron poker. will_colorado fucked around with this message at 19:33 on Sep 29, 2016 |

The Mariners will win enough games to go to a tiebreaker with the Orioles. The coinflip will have it be played in Baltimore. In the ninth inning, the score will be tied, 2-2 and Mark Trumbo will come up against Edwin Diaz, and hit a solo walkoff dinger to seal the pact. Steve Clevenger will then unlock his twitter account to throw shade at Jerry Dipoto.

I'll be interested to see how the rotation gets set up from here. Do you go with the guys who give you the best chance to win each game? That would probably mean skipping Matt Boyd against the Braves, but it would also set him up to pitch the wild card game if they get there. Or you could just push everyone back one day, meaning Verlander would pitch on Monday against Cleveland and Fulmer would go Tuesday. But then, wouldn't the Indians be fielding a total scrub lineup? Do you waste Verlander on that game? Game theory is cool.
