Bigass Moth posted:I still can't wrap my head around that rain delay. The rain wasn't very strong, and when they resumed the game it was still going! Total momentum killer for Cleveland. Not saying it cost the game but it solved no problems whatsoever so wtf. Umps just wanted to make sure they didn't embarrass themselves by destroying the field in game 7 of the World Series

Intruder posted:I would sell the Astros entire farm for nothing but rentals and watch the team go back into the basement for a decade if it meant a single WS win and also that Donald Trump had lost I will never understand how anyone could prefer their team winning one incredibly specific configuration of 11-12 games over many years of watching them win 80s to 90s of games, but I actually like baseball so

ego symphonic posted:The goal of a major league baseball team is to win the World Series not to "win" trades If your goal is to win 3-4 coin tosses in a row, your plan to achieve that goal should be centered around making it to the coin toss round as many times as possible, not gluing an extra milligram to one side of the coin for one season

The Pussy Boss posted:I pretty much agree. But it should be noted that you're a Braves fan, and thus obligated to say that sustained regular season success > winning World Series :P They have done both things in my time as a fan and having been able to be fairly to highly confident on any given day that I could watch my favorite team do a good job of playing the game of baseball for 20 of the last 25 seasons has meant a hell of a lot more to me than that one time they won the All-Star Game But For Teams

bewbies posted:It seems to me like middling designated hitter is by far the most overvalued position in baseball. Is this perception accurate? you should know that I am informs on this by both Billy Butler and Kendrys morales They're better than middling hitter who can't field but fields anyway and actually loses value there

LeftistMuslimObama posted:I am starting to have some serious Ship of Theseus struggles with this team though, for real. How do all you old-timers deal with this? Probably not super helpful, but you get used to it. There was a time not long after Chipper retired that I realized somebody like Kris Medlen or something was the longest-tenured Brave that was the low point for me and it's gotten a lot easier since then.
