ALDS Game 2: White Sox at Astros

Back home today so now I get to find out what happens before I see it.

Yordan in LF, Brantley at DH, same batting order spots as yesterday

Chas replaces Meyers in CF, batting 8th

For fuck’s sake…why?

Because Dusty is a fucking idiot. Next question.

In his last four games, Meyers is 7 for 16 with a HR and 5 RBI. That’s earned him the bench.

Apparently because Chas struck out twice in 2 ABs against Giolito in the middle of July

Nothing against Chas, but I don’t get it either. Hope he has a big game today.

Turn my browser on, log on to my Xfinity account getting ready for the game. Check FS1…nope. Check TBS…nope. Game is on MLB Network, which I don’t have. Guess the The Herd with Colin Cowherd is more important than an Astros playoff game.

My Friday all of the sudden feeling like a Monday.

So because McCormick has failed to make contact against Giolito, he gets the start over your hottest hitter. Dusty’s intellect is truly dizzying.

Apparently you can sign up for a free trial run and get the game today, at least that’s how I read this

Check out the tweet, good luck!

Dusty Baker is insane. Jake Meyers was a spark in yesterday’s win. He earned the right to stay in the starting lineup today. Instead, his reward is a spot on the bench.

Framber being a ground-ball specialist should have had no bearing on this decision.

Scheduled day off for Jake.

Bold move Cotton, considering tomorrow is a travel day.

Because Dusty is a fucking baseball moron.

By the way…the rum today is Vizcaya from DR. For Framber.

Just checked where Giolito is from, I’m safe, no beverages from Cali on the schedule for today.

He’s definitely not insane. He’s just a fucking moron.

He’s proven it time and again, and he’ll say something stupid and folksy when Chaz strikes out 3 more times and Meyers pinch hits and gets a single, and I’ll just keep slowly moving him up my hypothetical murder list.

Not a good start by the booth: graphic shows Framber at 11-6…booth simultaneously tells us he’s 11-8

But…we’re not subjected to AJ Fuckzynski

T1:

Anderson…0-2…1-2…grounds out 6-3 on a nice play by Correa
