Hopefully, all those players with a ñ will hit .500

Indeed... I will tell you more guys - I would sign a contract right now to win this game tonight, in exchange for being swept in the LCS. Breaking this streak is the most important thing.

Ah ok, thank you, I didn't understand he was referring to him as a hitter. Anyway, I hope Folty gets as many at bats as possible, that would be a good sign.

That's why we always lose NLDS. It seems to affect players, the more playoffs they play with our jersey. If we don't break the curse tonight, I see Acuna hitting .087 in the next NLDS we qualify for. But I didn't understand the "Folty on the mound" thing. Would that be different with someone else?

No rotation changes for tonight? Advanced analysts told me we are 0-1 in NLDS with sticky GDT and 2-1 with floating GDT, so that, at least, should be an easy decision.

However guys, a 5-game series is never easy. See the Astros, they also sent a pitcher (well, "the" pitcher) out on short rest and they lost. In case a miracle happens and we advance, we could even face the Nats and then (potentially) the Rays or Yanks.

I think the only way Freeman would sit is if he says he's not good to go. If he says he's fine, true or not, Snitker will go with him. And, honestly, I would too. A lineup position swap, by the way, could be beneficial.

Given it's a "no tomorrow" game, and understanding that probably this will never happen, I would go with: Swanson Albies Acuna Donaldson Freeman Duvall McCann Joyce Folty Swanson didn't do bad at #1 spot in the final games of the season and is red hot. Acuna can be our #3, FF is slumping big...

2 hours away from game 4? Seriously?

Good point, I read earlier that he gives walks, if you have the patience to wait. Well, could be a good day for Markakis?

I think today our bats are the key. I don't know if 3 late runs can win it today, so yeah, let's wake up. If we go to game 5, it will all be very complicated vs Flaherty again. Don't get me wrong, I'm confident our pitching can hold them to no more than 3-4 runs, but you never know. Melancon...

Are you sure?

I must agree on the human aspect of managing being very important. I know you don't watch Formula 1 too much on your side of the ocean, also because it's very hard to watch on TV (at least this is what my US friends told me). But, in that sport, I think the top teams have the concept of...

Whatever the final outcome, best postseason since 2002... which is a bit sad... but let's enjoy the moment.

Stole? They had 4 hits...

Hahaha appropriate!

Greene?

I would prefer having Greene ready to go, just in case...
