    Really? Seems to me one side would be more likely to back abusers of any type than the other side...

    I like how they used an audio clip of Joe around 42 secs in to depict a grumpy old man

    Ben Ingram was just on 680 the fan and said he thinks the Braves may start Newcomb in game 2.

    There was far more in that article that could be qualified as political speak than just spousal abuse, which I would not put in that category. The Indians thing, the Daniel Murphy thing, the Tomahawk chop thing... I mean come on.

    Edit: I don't put spousal abuse in the category of political, obviously

    We avoid Angel Hernandez, CB Bucknor, Laz Diaz, Joe West, and Sam Holbrook. I'll consider that a win.

    Wow, that's unexpected. Make Dave Roberts pay for that. Ryu is good and has had outstanding numbers, but while I've said Buehler scares me the most of their starters, that doesn't seem smart to kind of even be cocky of not starting your ace game 1.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    Yep we have to take advantage of them not going with Kershaw game 1. Get out of LA with a split and I'm happy.

    Ryu has been pretty good recently going into the playoffs

    In his last 15 games he is 7-3 with a 1.97 era...good K/BB rate...averaging under 6 innings per game

    Obviously says that Roberts is very confident in Ryu being able to shut us down.

    only thing Ryu is shutting down is the clubhouse buffet

    I’m driving from Baton Rouge for game 3. My first playoff game, I’m stoked.

    Actually, Kershaw could come back for Game 5 and he'd be on 4 days rest. Game 5 is on next Wednesday. He's pitching on Friday. I believe that's their plan.

    Now if they wanted to use Ryu twice, he'd have to pitch game 4 on 3 days rest. Curious to see who will start game 4.

    I'll honestly take that compared to some of the other jokers we could have gotten.
