Said it last night - if that's all we get from Mancini, the trade was worth it. He's an incredibly good person and I'm happy to see him contribute somehow, some way.
It's crazy how that happens. As a fan you are frustrated watching it and complaining about the management making a decision to bring a guy in. That is until that player makes a single huge play in a huge moment. The most unlikely player to make that huge play. Then it's all worth it.

“I was like, come on Chas, get up.”
The biggest reason I'm so stoked for Mancini is that, had that got by him and we ended up losing the game, that would have been devastating for him.Hubert J. Farnsworth said:Wabs said:

That was kind of his point. He was saying the specialization that takes place with today's athletes isn't necessarily a good thing.AustinAg2K said:Texas A&M said:
Does anyone else catch MLB Central in the mornings? I just discovered it during the ALCS. On days that I'm working from home I record it and try to watch the first 15-20 minutes. I'm not a big enough baseball fan to watch it during the regular season, but for the playoff it is a great show. Two interesting points from this morning....
- Many of y'all might know it, but I didn't realize that McCormick was such a good basketball player in HS (1000 pt scorer).
- The main guy on the show was talking how he really thinks that playing multiple sports in your youth (vs just specializing) really helps in baseball.
Nearly every pro athlete excelled at multiple sports as a youth. If you're a great athlete, you're probably going to be good at everything ok the HS level.

How excited are you going to be if Astros lose and you can gloat about how much Dusty cost us the world series?Quote:
like how DH is a ZERO and it should be Vazquez. but we cant bc we carried Will Smith instead of a 3rd catcher.
very simple managerial decision.
Vazquez could move from DH to catch if Maldy got hurt. It would just burn the DH and turn into old school National League baseball with double switches and all that fun stuff.
With our awesome pool of pinch hitters….
That's right. I don't see us putting ourselves in a position where that's even a remote possibility.PhatMack19 said:Deluxe said:That's part of it.

Sounds like Chazzy Fizz needs a tie-in with Whataburger for the WhataCatch.512Ag said:Boiling Denim said:

So do I. I can't watch tomorrow. I'll be at a soccer tournament and the last game doesn't kick off until 8 pm. I won't be home until 10:00 at the earliest.

Listen live in the ESPN app in your pocket. Any time the Phillies score a run, issue a red card to the player who most resembles Bryce Harper in looks or demeanor.bigjag19 said:Mathguy64 said:bigjag19 said:

Dusty Baker isn’t certain who’ll DH in game six with it depending on part on Yuli Gurriel’s health and matchups.
— Mark Berman (@MarkBermanFox26) November 4, 2022
Dusty Baker had no update on Yuli Gurriel this morning. He said he'd talk to his trainers on the plane ride back to Houston to get a better sense.

Congrats on your masterful no-hitter and pitching performance. It was truly a sight to see.

absolutely one of the biggest plays in Astros historyQuote:
Mancini saved TWO runs on one of the most difficult plays for a 1b to make.
Don't be bringing that voodoo over here! This series ends tomorrow in Game 6.EastCoastAgNc said:
Looking at the forecast in Houston, the roof might be open Saturday night. Chance of rain as of right now for Sunday night, so would be closed for a potential game 7.
