Pretty sure ARod should get a fastball on the hands before the night is over.

Just say it gets to a Game 7. Who should start that game? Happ or Hamels?

Happ could easily give up a 3- or 4-spot. From there it's just a couple of runs to Lidge-in-a-save-situation territory. I'd just as soon avoid that, if at all possible.

It doesnt even matter. Lee isnt starting Game 7. He's already thrown too many pitches. He can throw 2 innings anyway since its his bullpen day

Meaning you need to have your bullpen intact for Game 6, to give you the best chance to make that Game 7 a reality. To do that you don't want to try to get 5+ innings out of them against this offense unless you absolutely need to

IMO

Hamels. And he's out at the first ... and I mean the FIRST ... sign of mental implosion. As in the first time he rolls his eyes or smirks, I'd be out there asking for the ball.

If it's mid-inning, I use a reliver to get out of it and then call on Happ.

PEEEEEEEEEEEEEETE.

starting happ instead of hamels would cause me to lose all faith in the universe

by **JackieTreehorn** » Mon Nov 02, 2009 22:26:00

i have an idea

lets not talk about game 6 or 7 until this game is over or we have a 12 run lead

by **CalvinBall** » Mon Nov 02, 2009 22:26:05

ohhhhh yeaaaaaaaa
