Don't buy that clear and convincing stuff Busby, it changes all the time.

Chirinos is pretty good at handling the bat. Anyone for a safety squeeze? He's streaky and put a good swing on it last time. I might let him swing away here.

Called it!!!

OK safety squeeze it is, but I would have probably had him just swing away

But I'm sitting at home

I'm ok with the squeeze there. Any extra run at this point in the game is huge. Any earlier than the 7th inning I wouldn't do it. It also moved Choo into scoring position

Need Colby to get us through 8. No set up man necessary. Ha

Not mad about the run for sure, I just don't like giving up an out. WP or base hit and who knows how the inning goes after that. I don't really have an issue with it, it worked.

Like I said thats why I'm sitting at home, I don't get to make calls from here

I will lose my mind if Scheppers is on that fucking mound in the 8th. I think Colby comes back out, but man I would be pissed.

Call me crazy, but if I'm in game 7 of the World Series and I've got options of Darvish, Holland, Perez, and Colby to start for my team, I'm picking Colby every single time.

I guess there is a real chance that this might be Colby's last game with us for at least this year. Probably not, but I guess there is a chance.

I think JD knows there's a couple of lines you don't cross. Trading Colby is one of them.
