@Britt_Ghiroli 2 minutes ago TBS says Game 3 got an average of 6 million viewers, up 25% from last years ALCS. KC/BAL are the 2 smallest combined markets in LCS history

For the record I know that Guthrie has some bad blood with the Orioles for how they traded him or something. I don't know what the exact issue is, but he doesn't like to be reminded that he came up with them.

I honestly don't really think Cowherd is one of those guys. He's usually right on with his takes. I used to hate him but he says a lot of things that make sense. Saying that he doesn't like the Orioles and Royals in the playoffs because he usually sides with big market teams in like, all sports, is a misguided opinion though. And yes I enjoy getting mad at the radio during drive time.

The only thing I ever heard from Cowherd was, forget even the sport but he was arguing that some Pittsburgh team was bound to win an upcoming game against their San Francisco opponent cause blue collar. I can only assume he was correct since no SF team has ever won a championship ever, right?

Heck of a way to out yourself. e: Scob posted:the way the royals and giants are winning pisses me off. it validates all the bunt bullshit. I'm not speaking for Yost but the Giants' situation with runners on first and second with no outs is actually one of the most optimal times to bunt: http://www.blessyouboys.com/2011/8/17/2365806/a-sabermetric-view-of-bunting The decision to have Perez bunt Crawford over the previous at-bat is more questionable, but Perez is kind of useless offensively so I guess Bochy figured an out plus 90 feet is better than just an out.

Scob posted:the way the royals and giants are winning pisses me off. it validates all the bunt bullshit. I don't think the Giants are particularly bunty? In fact fangraphs seems to suggest they've bunted the least out of any NL team (if I'm reading this poo poo right). I mean hate all you want, but the Giants aren't really built around bunting and base-stealing the way the Royals are.

The Giants are built around having Posey, Panda and Pence and other teams not.

I'm not saying I agree with him all the time just that his opinions seem to be genuine and not troll opinions like a Skip Bayless. Cowherd said that college basketball before the tournament was unwatchable because nothing exciting happens. That's just wrong but I don't get the feeling the purpose of that comment was to get college basketball fans all riled up.

Saying the Giants won because of Matheny seems pretty lazy, and I say this as someone who can't stand Mike Matheny. Randy Choate slated to face 3 lefties and 1 really lovely righty who was clearly bunting is an appropriate use of a LOOGY. Especially given that Carlos Martinez struggles against LHB. Playing Grichuk yesterday was pretty dumb, but then Grichuk goes and homers, validating the bad decision. The only thing Matheny could've done yesterday was maybe double switched Grichuk out in the 9th so that Maness could've pitched innings 9 and 10. Everything else is defensible. The Cardinals lost Game 3 because their players didn't get the job done when put into a reasonable chance to succeed. Separately, Matheny is loving terrible.

For the longest time I just pronounced it in my head as inchoate without the "in". When I found out it was Choat, I lost all the awesome* puns I'd been making.
