ALCS Game 2 Open Thread - Red Sox at Rays

Royalsreview_tiny by royalsreview on Comment 188 comments

Last night in the bottom of the 9th Chip Caray, one of my least favorite human beings ever, said two teeth-grinding things:

1) "It has struck midnight for Tampa's Cinderella". Yes, because this was a one game playoff and the Rays are now eliminated.

2) "Tonight, experience has trumped exuberance." The Red Sox scored their first run thanks to the oh so experienced Jed Lowrie, and escaped the eighth thanks to some dude named Masterton. I think both those guys go back to the Nomar Era.

I really really hope Dayton doesn’t overspend on that guy

But Daytons sick of losing!

That’s why they gotta keep Soria in the rotation and trade Billy Butler!

Check my new fanshot… apparenlty the Cubs are willing to accept “shaky right field defense” in order to accomodate a “middle of the order bad.”

Jim Hendry IS a dumbass…

i realize this has nothing to do with anything, but… your mention of Hendry spurred me

You should know I love rippping on Snakeskin Boots as much as anyone

indeed, he made me almost forget about Hendry

Did Colletti actually come up? Did they show Nomar, Pierre, and Andruw Jones all sitting next to each other on the bench?

I'm glad to see (elsewhere) that you also still have a bit of faith in Teahen

This year was as unlkucy as last year was lucky

I still tihnk he could OPS .790-.800 against RHP with a .350 OBP. Not great, but the Royals could use it.

Once defense is figured in, he was as “good” or better than JoGui this year, and that’s not counting his bad luck

Former Royal Great J. P. Howell is in line for the win, currently, right?

Man, the Royals must have received a great haul for him. Dayton Moore knows pitching, so he wouldn’t let a badass lefty like that go for nothing. Not when he signed Ron Mahay for two years.

is that even true? I mean, where are all the GMs beating down the doors offering corner outfielders for Rosa, et. al.?

The irrational part of me thinks DMGM wants to have an excuse to trade Greinke because Zack’s not one of his boys. He might be stuck with Gordon and Hochevar, but if he can get rid of Zack AND Butler during the same offseason, he can get rid of that horrible stench of failure from the Baird years.

That’s just my nasty side, though.

Terrorist nuns

So I was looking up David Price since they kept saying how fast he came up and someone had edited this in alrady:

“Price made his major league debut with the Tampa Bay Rays on September 14, 2008, against the New York Yankees. He came in for 5⅓ innings of relief; he made his first major league start with the Tampa Bay Rays on September 22, 2008 against the Baltimore Orioles. He’s about to blow game two of the 2008 ALCS”

They were wrong, but it was still funny.

Houston-Phillie Went

16 innings, I think. I don’t know about the duration. I think Rose and Morgan both were in that game.
