MLB Daily Thread: 9/29/17: Sox and Yankees lose, Cardinals eliminated

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Don't know his status. Is he a free agent? I think he would be hard to replace. All those walks. He must be good at running up a pitcher's pitch count. He'll be 32 next year. I guess they have to be careful when they consider how years to invest in him. If he wants more than 4 or 5 then you probably have to let him go.

Yeah, FA.

My guess is he's gone, and yes, not easy to replace. Measured by BR's WAR, he's the 5th best player on the Indians.

I just think if they were going to extend him, they'd have done it already. They're not going to win a bidding war over him.

I wonder which Verlander is going to show up for the playoffs. In sixteen playoff starts, he's shit the bed in eight of them.

friend of mine passed last night. 40 years old. crossfit athlete.

gastrointestinal neuroectodermal sarcoma.

had a slight fever, loss of appetite, trouble with bowels movements and tightness across his lower back. went to the dr, xrays...nothing, sent home, and told to go to the ER if pain persisted.

24 hrs later they drew blood and admitted him. he lasted almost a year to the day.

leaves 2 little girls and a beautiful wife.

he wrote a letter to his friends that his wife posted on a site for him. i have a toast to go to at a local brewery in his honor, next weekend. door/donations go to his family.

last line of the letter....

"I find myself wondering how this could possible happen to someone who just wanted to raise his 2 girls, spend time with his amazing wife and friends, and enjoy some simple pleasures like IPA and football in the fall."

In other news, my youngest son turns 1 today. And my skin looks great as I had a lovely face peel last night.

Having Wiz Khalifa throw out the first pitch is a great idea!

At least he's been to the play-offs, unlike Sale... So not sure which Sale will show up.

 

[redseat]

Red Sox have reasons to worry about their starting rotation going into postseason

I think you mean through the AL portion.

Yes that is what I meant.

Sorry to hear about your loss, Rock.

he has a 1.76 ERA in his last eight postseason starts. 10+ K's in five of them

yeah I was just saying 3 years when I thought they weren't playing well under Farrell... But I was already proven wrong

2/10. WNB.
