Ran projections on Teruaki Sato. Not on my site yet, maybe next week. 247/312/463. In 527 AB, 27 HR but 186 K. Worth 3/69 or 4/86 on market, discount that for posting fee.

Congratulations Brewers! One hell of a season

As we go to the bottom 10th a great way to end this game would be Chandler Simpson hitting his first MLB homer. Inside the park, of course

Did you know Corbin Carroll is the active career leader in triples after playing just 4 full seasons? He passed Mike Trout and Starling Marte last season.

I can’t get over how much older managers used to look. Last time the Brewers played in the WS the manager was Harvey Kuenn, age 51 And now they have Pat Murphy, age 67

That was a fun ballgame

Turang, among current Brewers, looks the most like Robin Yount. I don’t think they have anyone who resembles Pete Vukovich or Gorman Thomas

Rays got a runner on 2B with 1 out in the 8th, down one run. Their whole bench was available, yet they did not pinch hit for Taylor Walls. Can anyone make this make sense?

Ok, great defensive CF named Pete hits a game winning homer in the championship series. How many of you had Halpin and not Crow-Armstrong?

Dodgers and Brewers giving us 7th inning excitement and we’re an hour and a half in. But still just bottom of the third

The final 4 of the MLB is further proof that this league desperately needs a salary cap. All fans should support this noble quest by the owners to force it on the players. By 2026 salary: 1. LA 19. MIL 28. TB 29. CLE If you aren’t among the top 29 in payroll, you have no chance

Last time a 20 strikeout 9 inning game happened was opening day when the White Sox faced Misiorowski and the Brewer pen. They bookended their season striking out 20+ times in a game.

21 K by Cleveland vs CWS. 1. New postseason record for 9 inning game, breaking one set in g3 of same series. 2. 1 more than any regular season game, non-extras. 20 had been done 10 times. 6 combined and 4 by a single pitcher.

Yankees down so the AL will send either an extreme small market team to the WS, or a team from the #3 market that operates like a small market and coming off multiple 100 loss seasons. Brewers now stand in the way of “only big market teams can compete and we need a salary cap”

Game 2 and no Yamamoto? Dodgers didn’t have enough time to set their rotation? I know Snell is a 2 time Cy winner, not exactly chopped liver, but Yamamoto is their ace. And as any Blue Jay fan could tell you, clutch in the playoffs.

Grant Taylor with a most impressive 4 inning save. We should have a name for that kind of save, especially when you don’t give up any runs. I call it a “goose”.
