Where black will probably put gray on the mound.

I’m curious what you would have done differently. You’re in the playoffs, and have a game Sunday, possibly Monday and again on Tuesday. You could need as many as three starters in the next four days and you have to pitch someone Saturday. I think not interrupting the rotation was the correct call. If you start short-starting guys too early, that’s even more of a detriment. German was probably the only other starter available, and if you burn him Saturday, and still lose, you end up pitching Gray on Sunday or Monday because Freeland probably isn’t pitching again until the wildcard game.

Hell no. I'd start anyone but him, he was god awful all season. They sent him to minors because of it. It shows the other guys on the team that you're there to win. The minute i saw he was starting I called it a loss. I actually called my boss and asked if he was ready for the playoff for first. He asked why, I said cause Grays gonna **** this up.

Well, Gray was pitching at some point. I guess I’d rather have it be Saturday then the one and done on Monday or Tuesday.

I'd rather he not be on the team, he's the Rockies Tebow. Once in a blue moon, he might do something, but most of the time he'll just **** you over.

I think starting Anderson today is the right call as well. Save German for Monday or Tuesday.

I like that MLB made teams all schedule their games at the same time today. That’s some good stuff.

I agree.

GEM, hold me

We gon win

This is the first time in my life I am watching baseball on a Sunday afternoon in September. It wouldn't even matter if the Broncos were playing today.

This is as good as it gets.

Ditto! Although I'll be switching between the Rockies and Redzone.

I will not be switching!

Unless my MLB.tv app keeps shitting the bed

Man, they can't get these guys out. What do they have, like 100 hits this series?

Moar triples.
