I think your sarcasm is getting carried away with you.
You and I know both know. You win it when you can. You in know way try and prolong it to win at home. Just sayin.
Roberts has been known to screw it up

If he really wanted to win it tonight he wouldn't be playing the bullpen, he would have come out with his foot still firmly on the Yankees necks and had a proper starter out there

Don’t disagree. Never understood the bullpen game.

Still three long innings to go.
Down 2.

Don't ever let them breath. NY is breathing now and it's gonna be hard to get a foot back on their neck

Wow Nice foul tip. NOT.
. Not that will matter tonight.
But then he’s on second. SMH.
And now how many runs later did it really effect.

One thing that gets me with baseball is the spitting. So gross. All the time.

No other sport shows it like them.

Sorry just disgusting even outside of baseball

Are you serious.
Have you never watched football
Or hockey. They’re spitting everywhere.
Maybe it’s just cause baseball is so slow they can show every player between pitches.

You've never rolled down the windows during a epic 50 car pass at 100mph and hawk tuwd out the window?

Easy win if he just plays ball ? WTF Is that supposed to mean ?
Means exactly that, play ball, play to win every game, never let up, ever.

Guess that the racer in me, pedal on the floor until it's over, you don't lift because you're winning, you keep your foot down until you win.

The Yankees were in agional respirations, their spirit was broken, they were done. Now they have full lung capacity and have their spirit and drive back. The Dodgers have to break that again.

They don’t have another starter. It’s to give rest to the three they have. Glasnow? Kershaw? Gonaolin? Ryan? May? All injured.

Not an excuse. An explanation or answer to your question. You’re welcome.
Ok, competition is different between you and I. Since they are all rested we should expect a shut out tomorrow by the Dodgers bullpen. No hits, no walks and no hit batters, you know because the Yankees are gonna let off the throttle now.

Yeah I guess you’ve never managed a team then. Even managing your kids little league with pitch counts would have taught you something about this. And there’s also this thing called a roster and rules on how you can fill it. And another thing called a trade deadline. Keep being a casual sports watcher though. Ignorance is bliss.

A game you can clinch. Fuck pitch counts. This is similar to the 04 ALCS. Yankees let Boston back in after completing demoralizing them in game 3.

I want to win, guess you don't. Flaherty and the rest of them could be resting until spring but not now, Walker should have been the only one off the roster for last night. Never ever let up especially when it's go time.

And this isn't little league, these guys are paid a lot of money to perform when needed

Yep. Pitchers now throw 160 to 170 innings per year. Back in the day, Koufax threw 357 innings a year along with 10 or more complete games

I guess we should talk to the players association about that. Not necessarily that they’re limited by pitch counts but the fact that all baseball contracts are guaranteed money, it’s more about the war than the battle. And yes I have clients as well as friends that have played in the MLB. There’s a lot to it than rooting for your favorite team.

I do want to win. I want to win the World Series. Wasn’t going to happen last night. But it will.

Yes they are paid a lot of money. And they are paid a lot of money to sit on the bench when they get injured as well. It’s a business.

And I thought you were rooting for the Yankees.

It did appear the Dodgers use of pitchers was as if they were down 6 not 2....Meanwhile the Yankees bats woke up.....Granted against subpar pitching but woke up none the less....Freeman cools off and Ohtani continues to struggle , them Dodgers could be in trouble.....

no sense arguing with people that NEVER played a game, they are the ones with Pom poms in the stands on Friday night at the high school football games . Then they get on a boating site and talk all this knowledge

I’m sure Flaherty would have done the same as the bullpen last night with the lack of rest. Healthy and sucking isn’t good either. Good thing is we have him for tonight since we didn’t use your strategy.

And I was getting you confused with 44.

Hypothetical question. If the Dodgers were to sweep 4 games in a row, how much money would be lost by missing 3 more World Series games?

I don’t think so, all he needed to do was go 3 innings tops, Kopech for 1.5 then Banda for 1.5 then go to last night's lineup.

And you can't listen to 44, he thinks the Dodgers pitching did a great job last night 🤣
