This is why you pitch Cole when you have a chance to avoid this Winner take all game. Stuff can happen and it has. It's not over yet but the crowd is killed and Bumgarner looks unhittable.

You can't blame the Pirates for throwing Cole on Sunday in n attempt to win the division.

Seems moot anyway. It didn't matter who the Pirates threw in the Wild Card game, nobody was touching Bumgarner. |

Well then. I was all worried that that Torii Hunter line drive could have potentially lead to a go-ahead run by Miggy (Kinsler would have been at 3B, Hunter at 1B then the HR)
Thankfully, that hypothetical is so far in the rear-view. |

Braves will keep Fredi Gonzalez around. They also hired Bo Porter as Third Base coach.

who could have possibly envisioned an Orioles/Royals ALCS..? I'm actually more concerned if the o's have to play the Royals because they have good pitching/defense...

The Tigers are crumbling and weren't helped by their manager's inept decision making regarding his bullpen. I never understood Ausmus' hiring in the first place, since he had zero experience at any level. Not the kind of guy to helm a championship caliber team, imo.

I've said a dozen times that Ausmus isn't the right manager for this particular team. Maybe in a year or two after the window has closed, THEN bring in the young guy. But for a team that's built basically to try to win a WS, go with a guy who's been there before.
That all being said, I don't know if any manager could make this bullpen work. |

Frankly I don't think we're too far off from every single manager in the big leagues being a former catcher. It seems to be all you need to get a job nowadays.

They have both Sanchez and Porcello who can throw multiple innings out of the pen. If he wasn't a robot about using relievers Detroit could be dangerous at the backend of playoff games.

That was Leyland's main problem at the end of his tenure too, he would have a strict "8th inning guy" (Benoit) and 9th (Valverde) regardless of anything else, and wouldn't stray from that
I understand being cautious with Sanchez but this is the time of year where you have to take some risks. |

Also, you don't set strict pitch limits on guys, even when they're returning from injury. You analyze mechanics, velocity, pitch effectiveness and command. There's no magic number for being tired.
