BTW Dusty.... just in case you're a lurker here on TexAgs. I'm sorry for getting mad at you earlier today for pulling LMJ. Didn't know about the arm thing, my bad.

They should have just blurred out fans, or left it altogether. Thanks for the inspiration

Somehow Maton found his nasty nasty and was absolutely phenomenal this series.

He needs to remember what it was he did because that Maton needs to stick around.

Yes if Dusty and Storm can count on Maton, look out.

True that they were great but let's not act like Dusty had a gut feel and made the decision to pull Lance.

That move wasn't a choice.

One thing I noticed was that Maton's pitches looked great. Good movement, location, etc.

Am I just imagining things and it was part luck or did he just have much better stuff/command?

To be fair, if they left it normal they'd be accused of trolling.

What is he blabbing about?
In the game he was "exploited the most at their stadium" he went 6.2 innings, gave up 2 earned runs and struck out 6.



In the game that year in Toronto vs Houston he went 7 innings, 1 earned run and also struck out 6. But he was exploited

how does he justify his claims when he only allowed 2 earned runs in his lone 2017 start in Houston? Just bc the 11 hits?

Didn't want to risk the jinx by saying anything yesterday, but this is "they're not that special" all over again, and I love it.

This game was over the moment the White Sox fans booed Myers for taking a few throws to see if he could go.

Between the dip**** pitchers' comments and this moment, they lit too many fires for this group of guys.

Manfred's report says this in his factual findings section:

" Notwithstanding the publicity surrounding the Red Sox incident, and the September 15th memorandum that I sent to all Clubs, the Astros continued to both utilize the replay review room and the monitor located next to the dugout to decode signs for the remainder of the regular season and throughout the Postseason."

The key phrase here is "to decode," not "and to communicate to the current batter." I will go to my deathbed believing the banging system to COMMUNICATE the signs could never have worked in a playoff atmosphere. So the only real violation in my mind is the dugout monitor, since both teams had access to the replay room, where both teams could decode the signs to relay to a runner on second. Just one guy's worthless opinion though...

"To decode" means "to consistently beat big-market teams that our media rights contracts incentivize us to win in the post season"
