I bet the Astros players husbands hate Kate Verlander.

"she thinks she is so hot, with her gross crooked nipples, and Sports Illustrated pictures. I prefer evan gattis's man nipples"

No doubt, if you notice, she is never sitting with them

Alright, statman, what is your opinion of Kershaw and his ability to pitch in the postseason?

Generally speaking, I don't believe in "clutch" or its antithesis, but from time to time, a long enough track record exists that raises my eyebrow. Kershaw's playoff woes, for example.

I'm by no means saying that I think he's a "shitty" postseason pitcher, because he's certainly had some outstanding games, but when I look at what he's accomplished during the regular season and compare that to his postseason performances, I'm skeptical. It seems like there could be something there.

You ask me who I think is the best pitcher currently and I'm saying Kershaw, no doubt. You ask me who I want starting a do-or-die playoff game, and it's not him.

I think there's been a mix of some bad luck (defensive miscues and bullpen allowing inherited runners to score) and pitching worse (see walks, home runs). Haven't checked to see what it is now, but prior to this postseason 8 of his 15 inherited runners scored.

my doubts are whether postseason performances have any actual predictive value.

I kind of assumed that. I also assume that in another dozen years, you'll be the snarky guy busting balls and letting guys a dozen years younger do the heavy lifting. The circle of life, or somesuchshit. . .

Heavy lifting? Numbers are therapeutic to me.

Aha, the old 'shitty prediction is really a reverse jinx' excuse. Sure, go with that.

I used to love it too. I was like greased fucking lightening on a 10-key. If there's any guys from the FanNation MLB threads, ask them. I was constantly posting stats, making spreadsheets, et cetera. Not unlike you, but maybe a little angrier.

Yeah you and @Montalban are big on those LOL

Expect more if the Stros get up early tonight.

I'll alert the media

Not that important.

I'm not the guy who let 8 mil ride on the Dodgers last night

 

[black francis]

Then ask her if she likes me, or if she likes likes me.

Some on ESPN have said he will most likely be gone after this season.

Good point. I think the Dodgers will go after Verlander.

He's not a free agent.
