As if we didn't already have enough motivation, I just realized it was Tim Bogar's birthday today.

$64k question.

If Smith was on the DS roster, would Dusty have brought him in before LuAce? Because the pen was emptied of normal relievers before LuAce came in.

And for another $64k, do we still win that game if he does bring Smith in?

I think it's yes and then no.
A ton of angst over something that is all speculation on your part.

Really don't understand why some of you are upset about Will Smith being added to the roster.

- He has World Series experience
- The Phillies lefty hitters have struggled against him
- The guy he replaced hasn't thrown a single pitch in the postseason

It makes all the sense in the world to me.

Why do you think he's going to be in a game where we're close?

He's a lefty, he will be brought in for no reason other than that.

And because the baseball gods want to give me a heart attack.

Will Smith will be fine. Hopefully he is only in to face 1 or 2 batters to end an inning

He replaced the guy who hasn't made a postseason appearance. The most likely outcome is he doesn't pitch at all.

Started research on this world series for my dk fantasy lines today. Tonight could be interesting. I expect schwarber and harper to have big hits tonight. I also like bregman and yuli tonight against nola. I dont think this is going to be a pitcher's duel, i can see both teams getting after the pitchers tonight. I think houston only has to worry about phillies top 4 hitters (schwarber, hoskins, realmuto, and harper) we limit them from scoring we take care of business

My wife just asked what we're gonna do if it makes it to Game 7 because its the night before the NYC Marathon. I told her I'm 100% willing to sacrifice all my training to stay out and watch that game.

Dear Astros,

Do me a favor and end it early

if we're being real, the odds that seth or smith would get into a game are pretty low

I don't know, I think Dusty has enough old school baseball in him to be tempted to put Smith in a big spot against Harper.

Mariners and Yankees had lefties too. We did just fine without him. Dusty isn't going to use him just for the hell of it cause there is a lefty.

I love how Dusty has done an incredible job this postseason and now everyone is assuming he's going to start using Will Smith

He has, but he hasn't exactly been challenged with a ton of tough situations. His roster, the lessons he's learned this season, and the actual play on the field have made it easy on him. If we switched managers with the Yankees for the CS, would the outcome be much different? I don't think so. Last year was a different story. Our pitching woes created a ton of tough calls and he found a way.
