Thanks for doing what the Tigers never could and actually picking up those bats and lifting JV up.

Intruder posted:Agreed. Sure, they lost yesterday, but he owned the gently caress out of the Yankees and if not for that they don't even get a shot Plus I'd say the offense going ice cold and stranding quite a few runners in Game 6 didn't help. He went several innings though which helped keep relievers fresh for tonight so ultimately you could say he helped quite a bit more than many realized.

Yeah, people are kind of acting like Verlander sucked yesterday. He threw 6 innings with 2 ER, 3 Hs, 0 BBs, and 9 Ks. That's not exactly a bad outing by any metric unless you're gonna kill him for not going 7. You just can't win without runs.

I feel really, really bad for Darvish  Giving up 9 runs in 2 starts for 3 1/3 total innings and knowing that it was (almost) entirely your fault has to suck beyond belief.

Big Mean Jerk posted:Yeah, Darvish is absolutely still a top tier starter. He just had horrible WS luck. Less bad luck and more that he has been, historically, very bad in the first inning. Here are his career splits by inning:  He's a "needs time to settle in" type of pitcher, which doesn't jive well with how SP are managed in the postseason these days.
