Yeah, but if Brantley is your other option, I figure it's a toss up
Dusty might rest his legs after his possibly game saving grab

Another reason it was so stupid to leave Meyers off this roster and keep singleton on it. He could’ve also pinch run for yordan last night to add an insurance run

I think even Rickey Henderson was hosed right there.

Roof open tonight

Question
Was it open during the Sept series there?
Posted on 10/19/23 at 1:35 pm to wahoocs
No chance, it was probably mid 90s-100s out during that time

I'm tempted to start Chas with his vs Mike's numbers vs Heaney and his overall stats against lefties. Plus the defense factor with flyball Urquidy pitching. But I think I wouldn't frick with anything from yesterday. Run it back.
This would never happen but I’d support playing Dubon at SS and Chas in CF

So, was it closed last night and they're opening it tonight
The only reason I ask this is I was at that game in '05 when Selig made us open the roof and had two 7 yo's along with adults freezing their asses off at 1:20 am and no long sleeve merchandise left to buy
It would be so MLB to now let a team arbitrarily decide to open their roof and it be versus the Astros

pretty decent for a pen guy

1. Take all 313 pitchers w/ 4+ career postseason starts
2. Take every possible combination of 4 starts for each one (consecutive or not)
The result is 494,310 different combos.
Cristian Javier's .071 opponent BA over his first 4 for the
@astros is still the lowest of them all.

With 44 career postseason starts, Andy Pettitte has 135,751 different combinations by himself (compared to just the one for Javier). Pettitte's lowest opponent BA in any of those combos was .122.

I dig it, fine with whatever route he went with for the outfield.
Gives the Astros a good LH PH option, provided Mike isn’t in pain.

Yeah lets him skip Heaney and be available in a big spot. He could bat for any of Dubon, Chas, Pena, Maldy depending on the situation.

I'm with you guys in spirit - been down for the count the last three days with the rona. I caught maybe the first inning last night on SXM and woke up at like 3a.
frick the Rangers.
frick the Rangers.

It’s 12 at bats over the course of probably 4 years. I trust Brantley in games like this
Even if Brantley doesn't get a hit, you can generally rest assured he will get a quality AB. I'd rather see someone with a good approach at the plate than swinging like mad and being an easy K.
Posted on 10/19/23 at 4:43 pm to LaLadyinTx
Agreed
Chas is 0-fer in ABs that are important

If he’s healthy enough to play I’d much rather Brantley be in there personally. Hopefully he isn’t banged up

Nobody is going to freeze tonight.
It'll be 78 degrees for first pitch and 68 at 10pm

The point is that the decision was forced, not arbitrarily decided
What changed from last night?

Off the top of my head the humidity was worse yesterday. Not sure what else was different out in Arlington since I'm not exactly following weather out in Arlington as I live in Dallas proper. Maybe there was an air quality alert?

More to the point, Selig forced the roof open b/c of a perceived advantage to the Astros
Nothing concerning the roof changing from closed to open has referenced weather or anything for that matter
Who made the decision and why?
There is no consistency within the league office when it comes to shite like this
