Open Thread: ALCS Game 2 and NLCS Game 1

PrintVerified fact: Every time the Yankees win a game, God gives a puppy leukemia. I won't even tell you the bad part.
With Neftali "Don't call me Felix" Feliz oh so fresh after Ron Washington paraded out 5 other pitchers -- two of them for one pitch each -- in an 8th inning in which the Rangers kept neglecting to record an out, Colby Lewis will try to keep pupples healthy, matched up against Phil Hughes. Oh, and the Rangers have never won a playoff game at home. Ever.
Then Roy Halladay and Tim Lincecum combine for what Tim undoubtedly hopes is a joint effort -- ok, sorry, that was a pot shot -- to start a series in which the favored team has a second baseman whose first name is the same name as my bank. I should note that if this gives you no interest at all, then you're also like my bank.

After last night...
anyone still wish we made Ron Washington manager? Not using your best reliever in the most important part of the game, bunting with a runner on first with a guy with a .390 OBP, PH-ing a lefty against Mo Rivera, who’s much tougher on lefties (though this move “worked”) — all those moves seem almost Gerenesque.
The decision to bunt was really moronic
Wasting an out against Rivera.
Should have put a speedster in there and stolen 2nd and 3rd. I seem to remeber Rivera throwing the ball away a few times against us in the past when in this situation.
"anyone still wish we made Ron Washington manager?"
I do. Because while I think he’s a poor tactician I don’t think he’s appreciably worse than Geren. Meanwhile, Wash’s players like and respect him and play hard for him. If I’m going to have a manager who makes his hitters bunt too much, I’ll go ahead and take the guy with the leadership skills.
I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal
Yup
As someone once said – “It was a great experience playing for Bruce Bochy, he is a great manager to play for”. And then made a significant pause.
"Good thing you can't hit, otherwise everybody would hate you"

people don't say that on losing teams
If we’re good next year, the players will say how good Geren was, too.

exactly
Wasn’t Don Wakamatsu awesome last year?
Dusty Freaking Baker is getting praised, and this is the same bonehead who bats Orlando Cabrera 2nd and was batting Laynce Nix over Jay Bruce in the NLDS and has a long history of doing stupid things.
Maybe no one says bad things during a surprisingly good season,
but absolutely players sometimes praise/back their manager during bad seasons.

The only thing I can clearly recall is CT saying Geren had a meeting with the players after the LAA series in the last week saying it was important for the team to get .500. And then they did.

Agreed 100%
Now we have Wedge in the division, there’s no clear tactician in the AL West. Quite a relief, if you ask me that all 4 teams have the same handicap.
Scioscia, hands down.

Yeah
He’s really terrible. I mean, really terrible.
I think he’s tactically worse than Geren, easily.
"We don't want our people to be preoccupied with seminude, crazy men jumping up and down who are chasing an inflated object," said Sheik Mohamed Osman Arus, head of operations for the Hizbul Islam insurgent group.
Like it or not, chances are we have Geren become a fixture at the manager position for us.....
The FO has alluded to his longevity in this role…..he will be our Scoiscia……
Because he would be so much worse than Bob Geren?

In an important game
Should Feliz have gone for the 6 out save?
The FairWeather Channel - Sports Comics and Bandwagon Forecast
Texas might have a better chance if Feliz starts this game
The pen will be used today.
Lets hope Hughes gets torched and the Rangers put up at least a 10 spot and steal bases up by 10 as well. No lead is safe so do whatever needs to be done including pissing off opposing players and managers.

"Good thing you can't hit, otherwise everybody would hate you"
– H.J.S., my ex coach (while drunkenly talking to me during a team visit to a strip joint)
Derek Jeter is so awful at hitting
If he was such a “true Yankee” not only would he have admitted A-Rod is a better defensive SS and moved to 3B, but he’d also have told them to hit him in the lower 3rd of the order, as Gardner gets on base and is a bigger SB threat than him.
Well sure he is NOW, but then again he is 36 these days.
"Nah, you look like Elijah Wood." - danmerqury
Well no - but it's understandable that they moved A-Rod over to third to accommodate him.
"Nah, you look like Elijah Wood." - danmerqury
Yeah and now they have to accomodate the entire team by hitting him leadoff.
I mean, Orlando Cabrera hit #2 for a 1st place team this year so I guess teams can still win despite of their own ineptitude.
it's really not.
I mean not that it matters much in the grand scheme, but Rodriguez was a significantly better SS than Jeter was, and moving Jeter would have been the right move except for Jeter being a selfish player.
Official Athletics Nation Rotating Tagline Editor
Pam liked my old sig better.
At some point it goes beyond numbers, otherwise why do people watch?
He was the team captain, he’d had a great career, he still played a decent SS. The fans wanted him to continue to play SS.
Logically it makes sense to move him for A-Rod, but it’s sport. Logic doesn’t really apply – after all we’re watching 18 grown men try to hit a small ball with a bat.
"Nah, you look like Elijah Wood." - danmerqury
Texas had no problem moving Michael Young to third base.
It might be ‘beyond numbers’ but it’s also the progression of the game.
Official Athletics Nation Rotating Tagline Editor
Pam liked my old sig better.
not to each other
simply a pair of above average shortstops who fans from each respected team absolutely loved.
one of them moved to third base when a better player came along. one didn’t.
Official Athletics Nation Rotating Tagline Editor
Pam liked my old sig better.
I'd say Jeter is better than 'above average'.
His defence brings him down, but his bat was exceptional for years.
That said – yes, logically he should have moved to 3B. I can understand why they didn’t move him though, which is what I’m trying to get across.
Plus as PL78 says – when you have as much money as the Yankees, you don’t need to squeeze every last player’s production dry like we would.
"Nah, you look like Elijah Wood." - danmerqury
yeah. like I said, in the long run it didn't really matter

1st/3rd double steal with Hamilton

CT ..."he’s not just an asshat with a mic" - cuppingmaster
No
Not always, even when there actually is a real double steal. If I’d realize that, I don’t know, Teixeira is limping in behind Gardner, I’d let Gardner steal third and go for the second.
And, this was a hesitation steal anyway, Andrus only started after Posada threw, so looking him back would not have affected him, only allowed Hamilton to steal.

The Yankees obviously are a terrible choice – buying their way to victory each year. The Rangers are equally bad as they basically cheated……….and they’re in our division. Screw that.
So it’s an NL team for me – not that I really care. I probably won’t watch. I’ll just get irritated when the WS cuts into my American Football coverage.
