World Series Game 6: DODGERS @ BLUE JAYS (LEAD 3-2) - Friday @ 8pm

[NinjaBro]

We gotta talk about our baserunners. Always getting caught in DPs because of low IQ baserunning smh

[mako]

I think the scary part about game 7 is that the Dodgers are due for a good hitting game. They've struggled offensively all series long and somehow it's still 3-3 thanks to Yamamoto and a flukey game.

Straw interview now, has KC Royals white jersey in his locker, odd

[ItsDanger]

Even if Yamamoto pitches tomorrow, it won't be until later in the game, not many pitches. Plus, how effective will he be? Doesn't change the approach.

Lukes and varsho, both should go down..lukes has been an automatic out whenever top of the order gets something going, then varsho is another automatic out..

Don't worry. Varsho's also due a good hitting game.

Bug respect to Barger for his post game interview. "I was too aggressive and Hernandez made a good play".

Yep yep. Move on. Barger has been great.

You’re really asking that after what you’ve seen?

I just hope he doesn’t Bumgarner us

[WaltFrazier]

How does the Ohtani rule work if he doesn't start, but is brought in relief?

[JCP11]

Were gonna kill em tomorrow. We've been the better team 9/10's of this series. Only when Yama pitched have they been better. Were gonna roll tomorrow, no doubt.

Yamamoto is pitching tomorrow

They almost gave the Jays the championship by pulling him away too soon. He must have 30 to 40 pitches in him fo tomorrow.

Sample size of 1. It's a big unknown.

Yamamoto is pitching tomorrow

He isn't throwing 7 innings. Bring em on. As you have alluded to in your Varsho posts, baseball is hardly preditcable but I'd bet a guy pitching on consecutive days after throwing nearly 100 pitches isn't gonna be nearly as effective as he was today

[Randle McMurphy]

He’s going to start so it doesn’t matter

[WaltFrazier]

Bug respect to Barger for his post game interview. "I was too aggressive and Hernandez made a good play".

Yep yep. Move on. Barger has been great.

Yeah he handled it straight up, with his head up. That's all you can ask

[linery88]

Lukes and varsho, both should go down..lukes has been an automatic out whenever the too often the order gets something going, then varsho is another automatic out..

They should switch Lukes with Clement who could easily handle number 2 Lukes 6 Varsho 7 would be fine with me.Hypnotize Schneid while he is asleep.

Ohtani is starting....because he can't come on as relief without taking him out the batting lineup.

And he wasn't as effective today as he was before (though tbf how could he be lol)

[mako]

BTW there's no confirmation that Ohtani is starting. It's just speculation. Dave Roberts said he doesn't know who is starting yet.

They took a huge risk to pull him after 6 and it almost backfired by costing them their season

But it didn’t, we blew it and now they’ve got a huge pitching advantage for game 7

It’s Shohei, they purposely held him out today and it’s the only way they can keep his bat in the entire game
