re: DAT 10/15: ALDS GM3 -- HOU (LMJ) @ SEA (Kirby) 3:07 TBS

Hopefully it gets pushed to tomorrow. Then they go 18 innings

I can’t wait for the whining to come from this

Request granted.

4:07 start in their time zone. 3 hour game, clubhouse celebration and then a 4 hour flight to Houston. Hope the winner is exhausted and hungover Wednesday.

Nestor is starting tomorrow for Yankees. So he's no longer available game 1 should the Yankees advance. Cole would presumably go game 3 on Saturday if they dont start him on 3 days rest for game 2, Nestor game 4. Taillon probably starts game 1.


1. JV/Taillon
2. Framber/Severino
3. McCullers/Cole
4. Javi/Nestor
5. JV/Taillon
6. Framber/Severino
7. McCullers/Cole


Guardians are avoiding Bieber so he'd go game 1 if they advance.

Getting WAY ahead of myself here but I don’t think they’ll start Lance on short rest in game 7. (this schedule is dumb AF)

If it goes 6 or 7 he’s the game 1 WS starter. NLCS gets the extra day so Wheeler or Darvish can go on full rest in game 1.

I don’t think they’ll consider this but if I was getting creative I’d say start Lance in game 2 and Framber game 3.

They’re always talking about how resilient his arm is. They’d probably let him start game 7. No matter who it is they’re getting pulled at the first sign of trouble so it’s not like you’re asking for 100 pitches anyway.

CK took his family to the game on Saturday in Seattle and nobody recognized him lol.

So you almost have to add an extra starter like Garcia right?

Urquidy is on the roster and was ready for potential game 4.

What I would do...

Game 1: JV
Game 2: Lance
Off Day
Game 3: Frambaw (better on the road anyway)
Game 4: Urkel
Game 5: Javi
Game 6: JV
Game 7: Lance

Keep Luis on the roster for situations like game 3, or if someone gets in early trouble.

I wouldn’t start urquidy in any situation

He has better post-season numbers over the last few years than Framber and Luis.
