Verlander needs to emulate '05 Clemens.
Pitched 5 innings on October 6th vs. the Braves.
Pitched final 3 innings of 18 inning game on October 9th to beat the Braves.

Threw 92 pitches in the first outing.
Threw 44 pitches in the second outing.

Was 43 years old at the time. Totally not on steroids.

We really just need someone other than Yordan to step up and deliver. The number of times we've left the bases juiced in games we lost this series is astounding. Surely we are bound to buck the trend

This right here. It's time for some other guys besides Altuve and Yordan to do it all at the plate.

I hope CJ + the offense make the management game easy today. Absolultely do not want this to come down to Baker vs Bochy. My stomach is already going through it this afternoon.

Same. Bad news is that we have been leaving a ton of runners on base. Good news is that we are getting runners on base and we have good experienced hitters in the lineup that have been here before and they should break though at some point. Hopefully its tonight.

Just need Javy to go 6 strong innings. Get a 6 run lead. Then Nervis, Abreu and Pressley for the win, right? That sound like a plan? Let's do this!!!

It'll be interesting to see how far Max is able to go. I would best case scenario is expect about the same as GM 2...4 IP or 70 pitches.

Can't imagine he goes any more than that.

The moment definitely isn't too big for this team. Whether that translates to a win or not, who knows? The playoffs in general are a crapshoot. Game sevens are even more of one.

That was my initial reaction. I would have liked to see Tucker hitting in front of Alvarez. There is 1 guy in our lineup the Rangers have nightmares about and that's Yordan. I really think Tucker would have benefited from hitting in front of him.

Honestly, the lineup looks fine. I'd have Dubon at SS over Pena but that's it. Lets hope Pena can do something tonight.

MMP has felt really small lately. Jomboy called this out in Talking Baseball segment from today, but feels like a lot of balls are on the warning track, really both parks.

I don't know why I am so nervous about a game I'm not playing in and that I know will not impact my life in any material way… yet I am.

So, with Abreu's suspension upheld but moved to the 2024 season, this is proof that the batter's reaction can define whether or not it was intentional. We watched a grown man's temper tantrum get taken seriously.

Also, I guess you can push umpires and get away with it, as long as you're mad enough

How much would some of you pay to guarantee a W tonight?

I'm at $1K myself.

Quite the disparity. Bregman dressed in a crazy suit and Altuve shows up like he's going to a kid's birthday party.

Wow, they should have White Goodman and company get out there for some D-back games, even if they're actually the Cobras.

Let's just win this one 14-2 and have it be the most boring game 7 in history. Is that okay with you jackwagons?
