Nick Sentzel headed for surgery and won't play AFL. Grrr.
Also just saw that the ALCS has a crew chief named.....Joe West! Wow, the go from Angel Idiot to Country Joe.
That is a damn shame. Pretty cool that he is switching to outfield though.
He's good enough to be up now and his spots in the IF are blocked. Would be fine with them trading one of the other guys for SP, but that is at a premium
Senzel is a player whom I've loaded up on his cards. Now that he is getting surgery I'll load up some more.
They've got to bring him up next year, right? Maybe after the deadline though so they can still have him cheap?

I hope they start with him in Left. We will see. The pitching is so bad that it is painful to watch them for long...even when they hit and field pretty well.

Brewer / Dodgers went from blowout to nail bitter pretty fast. Brewers lucky to hold on ... I feel that if they lost that game it would have screwed them mentally for the series. Dodgers may have lost but the near comeback will have an effect on the Brewers bull pen strategy today.

Cleveland Indians have filed a complaint with Major League Baseball about a man associated with the Houston Astros attempting to film in their dugout during Game 3 of the AL Division Series, according to a person familiar with the situation. MLB also says it is aware of a report by Metro Boston that a man claiming to be an Astros employee was removed from an area near the Boston Red Sox dugout during the AL Championship Series opener at Fenway Park last weekend.
During Houston’s series-clinching win last week at Progressive Field in Cleveland, a man with a cellphone standing by the photographer’s pit was removed “several times” by security personnel. The man’s credential was requested by Houston, a source told the Associated Press. MLB said in a statement Tuesday night the matter “will be handled internally.”
Another silly "unwritten rule" about stealing signs... uhg.
So, why not just watch the damn televised game and get the signals from there? You'd never have to be anywhere near the dugouts or game itself. Just watch the tv and see the pitches and you'll learn what the signs are.
If they are watching for the Swing or Take signs then I guess they'd have to be in the ball park.
This is silly for another reason. Analytics.
There is data on EVERY single scenario out there. If Betts has an 2-0 count on him there is data if he swings or not, if he chases a down and away pitch or not.
Baseball is becoming Texas Hold em now. If you know the odds/percentages then you go with them. "Gut feeling" of play will be eliminated all together soon enough. So bye bye to the Buck Showalters of the world because this IS baseball now.

He sucks, nonetheless.

He was one of the best from everything I've ever read about him.

The Astros , alleged to have done this in Cleveland too. MLB knows about it.
People shrug it off as "that's baseball", but if it were football it would be a different story...national outrage.
