Or line it up the way they did so Kershaw and Greinke can each get 2 starts

Haven't you heard? Wood is Cole Hamels II. Grienke is mentally weak with his social disorder, and Kershaw can't win in October, therefore you pitch your best pitcher in game 1, which for the Dodgers happens to be Alex Wood.

That being said, bad attempt at humor aside, I don't believe we got enough value for Wood and Petaza but some think he's the second coming of Koufax. Hopefully Olivera can channel his inner Cespedas, time will tell.

I betcha the universe would explode if Wood and Heyward were to face each other in the playoffs. It would be like a team of Brett Favre's playing a team of Brett Favre's with John Madden announcing.
 
I think we now have a candidate for worst manager in the game and its not Fredi. Gibbons taking Dickey out at 7-1 score was just dumb. And using Price when he should be lined up for game 5 was beyond stupid.

Actually he's playing a good long game. Stroman is really really good and likely a better a bet against the Rangers than Price. This also sets up Price to start game 1 of the ALCS.

Yep. Playing to the win, not the loss.

Texas has hit Price really well.

But it will be a big talk if Stroman doesnt come through.
 
Fredi on when you have a starter that is 0-6 as a starter in the playoffs and has struggled in that role, "you run him out there, see what he's got, he's got to get one eventually, right? I mean, he's like their best pitcher or something. Why play matchups, then?"
