I went to bed because I'm old and cranky, so I missed it...but both managers made lots of odd pitching changes in this series. Dave Roberts went to his pen so quickly last night and in game 2

For the Dodgers, last night was by design. It was a "bullpen game". What I found odd was that he started Gonsolin, who had been struggling. What really bothers me though is him thinking Jansen is still a closer. This series would have been over in 5 if not for that.

The Rays manager is getting killed for pulling Snell, but I understand his logic. Snell was pitching well, but he always pitches well for the first 4-5 innings. His e.r.a. from the 5th inning on was 14.83 in the playoffs. He had Mookie and Seager coming up and didn't want them to get a 3rd shot at him. His main mistake was in who he brought in. Anderson had been struggling. I guess when Mookie saw who was replacing Snell, he looked at Roberts and just smiled. lol

Personally, I would have at least let Snell face Mookie because Mookie has struggled against lefties this year. I think he just leaned on the analytics too much and it bit him. I don't think he can say it, at least not yet, but I'd bet he'd say his gut feeling was to leave him in.

If there's one thing I like about it getting colder, ok, other than wearing boots, it's that the cat burrows under covers to sleep.
It's the cutest damn thing.

Jinks is going to get her self sat on or something doing that. The blanket she has decided she likes to burrow in makes her damn near invisible. I already sent her flying once picking it up to move it. lol
