Yankees always looking for excuses........

What a freaking chode. Part of what makes baseball so great and various home field advantages is the fact that they're not uniform and the Green Monster has only been part of Fenway Park since 1912.

Of course, this grundle smear has never competed in anything and spouts off dumb takes for a living.

how his parents took their first look at him and didn't name him epic *****bag is beyond me.

I can actually smell him through the screen.

While it's unclear whether Stanton's shots would've been homers in other stadiumsESPN estimated that his second hit off the wall would have left 11 of the 30 MLB parksthey were indisputably balls crushed to left field. Anywhere else, a ball smashed 114 miles per hour to left-center in this scenario is at least a run-scoring double. In Fenway, not only did it fail to leave the park, but it wasn't even an extra-base hit.

What is he complaining about. The HR would not have left 19 (63%) parks. Doesn't sound indisputable to me.

and Stanton would have had a double if he hadn't been a lazy ass

What a chode.

if not for the wall the first single would have been an out. And the only reason they were not extra base hits was because Stanton was busy standing at home plate watching his majestic non home runs play wall ball. If he actually runs like he would have to do in every other park he is standing on 2B.

Seems to me the Yankees owe the wall a debt for not making an out and they need to kick Gio in the ass for being a lazy ******* and not running either out.

Arrogant team being arrogant. He had to look pretty prancing around, only to realize he gave up a +1 on the base running. Reminds me of when they were taunting the astros only to cough up a large lead. Losers.

Let's go Redbirds!

The postseason would be much more interesting with the Yankees and Dodgers eliminated in the first two games.

Yankees and Dodgers, the only teams capable of getting Astro fans to cheer on the Red Sox and Cardinals.

I'm praying that Scherzer gets lit up and the Dodgers get bounced.

Please God...Make. This. Happen.

Worked last night so we'll try it again

So last night Cole gets destroyed and when they come out to talk to him - he has no fight, doesn't want to battle, and Boone says there was nothing physical going on. Instead he tells his coach and fellow players "I'm out". How will he be thought of from now on by fans and teammates - especially in NY. He did great for us in 18 and 19 but never will forget his tantrum after game 7.
Cole is New York's version of Scottie Pippen who also quit on his team when it mattered most.

50 minutes until we get to see the best postseason player ever, one Cody Bellinger.

In 54 games across 11 playoff series and 221 PAs he sports a sterling slash line of .189/.262/.368 with 72 Ks. His WC production is a sleek .286/.286/.286 with 2 singles and 2 K's in 7 trips to the plate.

Of course his playoff numbers pale in comparison to the MVP level production this year where he posted a .165/.240/.302. Yes that OPS of .540 was good for an OPS+ of 45. His bWAR was an outstanding -1.5. You know who has a better WAR? Robel Garcia did. His WAR was -0.8. Think about it. Robel Garcia was worth roughly 1 more win this season over a former MVP.

And he only cost the Dodgers $16,100,000.

The #Astros announced their AT&T SportsNet broadcast team will throw out the first pitch for game two of the ALDS Friday, with color analyst Geoff Blum throwing to play-by-play commentator Todd Kalas. Houston rap legend Paul Wall will provide the “Play Ball” call.

I'd take Marwin over Siri. More versatile and has been there before.

Well Roberts just overthought his lineup. He took Chris Taylor out of CF and replaced him with Bellinger. He's giving up .240 of OPS and a net WAR change of 4.2. No chance this bites him. None.

Hasn't Bellinger been awful all year? What in the world is Roberts thinking?

Poor dojers

Waaaaaaaah. If this was in Fenway Arenado would have a single off the wall. Dodger stadium is unfair.

Web gem Wainwright. WOW.

It's also very weird to me to not have the K zone
