Shrecknet posted:Idle thought unrelated: how do you score a swinging strike three, dropped ball and throw to first? I wouldn't bother scoring it differently if the batter doesn't run. For a 2-3 putout or reaching on a dropped strike, I'd do these, respectively (with PB instead of WP if it's a passed ball)

Oh look, more last minute tinkering with significant impact. First round being 3 straight makes sense, but the DS ought to have 1 off day and the LCS really needs at least 1 off day. https://twitter.com/mike_petriello/status/1305862430480912390

Schedule in more detail, though without off days it's pretty self explanatory. One day off between DS game 5 and CS game 1. Three days off between the WC round 3rd games and the DS, I guess because teams have to travel? Seems weird. https://twitter.com/susanslusser/status/1305928008805441536?s=20 bawfuls fucked around with this message at 19:19 on Sep 15, 2020 |

I'm guessing they're trying to pack it in as quickly as they can. Get the TV money, hand somebody a trophy, everyone goes home, done before we find out there is a covid+flu ultra virus.

Personally, I think pitchers should gallop around the mound on an imaginary horse if they give a batter a golden sombrero. Or gallop back to the dugout after striking out the side. Showboat the gently caress out of clowning batters. That way, batters can do it too.

Can we all agree that the 2020 season and therefore the playoffs do not matter? This feels like a lost season and who cares who wins this facade of a season at the end.

Arguably a team that survives a 5-game DS without off days and a 7-game CS without off days will have better claim to depth and over all strength than teams who have been able to lean heavily on 2 starters in past postseasons

When I did my all-time fantasy baseball draft, my team with Barry Bonds and Babe Ruth got swept in the World Series by the team with Sandy Koufax and Clayton Kershaw.

Thank goodness my baseball team's game was only cancelled due to the massive, out of control wildfires that are blanketing the country with toxic smoke, and not an outbreak of the deadly global pandemic. Was worried there for a moment.

So it turns out that Joe Maddon is actually worth like -20 wins? The Cubs dump him and otherwise do nothing, get better. The Angels get Rendon and Maddon, get worse.

here's a weird baseball thing you've probably never seen: cleveland hits a late home run to tie the game against the cubs, but then blows it (ok this time it was on two consecutive hit batsmen to get walked off)

gently caress no. Manfred needs to loving go. I'm sure the owners would love it even more if every team got into the playoffs, doesnt loving mean it should be implemented.
