Around SBN: NHL Trade Rumors: Do You Make A Move For Rick Nash?

ST Game 8 Open Thread - Royals vs Rangers

Brian Bannister is a member of the Secret Brotherhood of Pitchers Who Control Balls In Play. He's very good at it -- so good, in fact, that in an emergency meeting convened before this start in Oakland, in fear of exposure and reprisal the Brotherhood voted to strip him of his rights and privileges until he learned to use his powers more subtly.

In the first inning of that game, Bannister directed a long drive into the glove of Teahen in left and a line drive into the glove of Gordon at third, but when he caught sight of a mysterious figure watching him intently from behind the third base dugout, he capitulated.

This is Bannister's make or break season. He will either practice his art so craftily that no one can detect it, or he won't.

Broadcast: the Royals radio network, MLB.com, XM Radio channel 177.

MLB.com Gameday: here.

Luke Hochevar, not a known member of the Brotherhood, is also scheduled to pitch for the Royals.

Kevin Millwood starts for the Rangers.

Fun fact: in Spring Training, the Rangers and Royals play against each other a lot.

An attempt to generate some chatter.

Let’s say it’s a regular season game against Texas. Greinke has tired in the 8th, after getting one out but then walking the next guy. The next hitter is Hamilton. Who do you want to see called in from the well-rested bullpen?

Are we ahead (and by how much), tied, or behind in the score? At home or on the road?

I agree with kcbottom9th

Go with Soria. When some of our other relievers give up hits, they have an annoying trend of being HRs. Wouldn’t trust most of them with a 1 run lead, man on base, Hamilton at the plate, and in Texas. 1 and 2 thirds of an inning save for Soria.

Closers only come into the game in the ninth.

So by order of payroll it would be Farnsworth, Mayhay, Yabuta, and then the cheap new guy we got Cruz.

Soria if the Royals are up one, down one or tied

These are the highest leverage situations. There’s no reason why he should only come in if the Royals are winning. Using your best reliever shouldn’t be about manufacturing high Save totals.

Not names particularly, but anything totally random and off topic.

My favorite Denny moment was either last year or 2 years ago. Him and Ryan, who was still on radio during the regular season at the time, started talking about glaciers. They spent that half inning, the next half inning, and then a recap the next half inning giving a recap of the last full inning. They basically talked about how glaciers form, their dangers, and how they can be destroyed. It was horrible.
