it means so long

Paul Swydan

right, makes sense (re: Solange)

So yesterday Dave C was defending Ken Giles closing (based on reg season stats). Today he's no longer closing - was one outing really the breaking point?

Paul Swydan

8:34

Well, he had allowed runs in 5 of his 6 postseason appearances going into last night.

I'd say last night was more the last straw.

Meanwhile, nice pitch from Keuchel there to strike out Bellinger.

Do any players eat peanuts in the dugout? I'm not a fan of gum nor seeds (and obviously tobacco is disgusting)

Paul Swydan

8:34

I've never seen peanuts, no. But I haven't been in every team's dugout, obviously.

8:35

Big hit for Forsythe!

Show Hey O’Tawny

Marwin nooooooo

Guest

Players should eat deep dish pizza in the dugout

hscer

8:35

at first I read that you'd never eaten peanuts, and I was like, that can't be right

Paul Swydan

8:35

Ha, no, I love peanuts.

8:36

As for that Marwin error, I don't think it cost Houston anything. The runner was being waived home as the ball got to Marwin.

Maybe Marwin has a play at the plate, but I doubt it.

What are you gonna be for Halloween?

Paul Swydan

8:36

I told my son I'd go as "tired and overworked father." He didn't think that was very funny.

My dugout snack of choice is an entire raw potato. Just munch it like a hand-fruit.

PAUL STOP CHOOSING COMMENTS ABOUT PEANUTS AND RECORDING ARTISTS

Paul Swydan

8:37

What about comments that are complaints? :-)

hscer

8:37

wait, is Buck saying Key-kul?

Paul Swydan

8:37

WOW WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT

8:38

That was amazing.

He beat it too, I think.

AdamZ

Safe

Bees to the knees

8:38

Pretty sure we pulled that same play off in like sixth grade

Paul Swydan

8:38

I was just going to say - that looked like when we played pickle with my son's team for our last fall practice last Tuesday.

E-Money

8:38

Holy shit what a slide by Logan -- They really blew it with that throw wow

E3?

Paul Swydan

8:39

E3 for sure.

Ike

Have you ever done the Hidden Ball Trick?

Paul Swydan

8:39

I mean, I tricked the kids on our team with it during pickle. But not when I played as a kid, no.

ChatzMcGee

8:39

awful slide by the way.

Paul Swydan

8:39

He was just going on instinct there. But yeah, could have been better.

8:40

Safe on review.

Tommy

Surprised Forsythe didn't sprain hid ankle

Show Hey O’Tawny

8:40

That was almost a scary play for Forsythe’s knee/ankle

Frank

8:40

In 2017, the ability to slide into a bag and not come off is rarer than 20 HR power
