I know a lot of people were tired of the Mariano Rivera farewell that lasted 3 months, but damn it must be nice to expect your closer to not fuck it all up in the post season
Edit: as I type...we win!!!!!!!!

More like 90% (I was eyeballing a list of saves/opp., a LONG list)
Was mostly like 40-44, iirc.
So best in game blew 1 save in 10 or so.
Just thought it interesting

Half of me believes Leyland was never comfortable not pitching Verlander in Game 1, but the season Scherzer had and public pressure wouldn't let him. He was much quicker to go to Scherzer tonight because in his heart he always wanted jv to pitch a potential Game 5. Honestly if i'm Max I might be pissed.

If Scherzer hadn't pitched tonight, is it a given he starts Game 5?

I really didn't mean it as a complement to Leyland. Our chances would be much better with Max, but once again loyalty gets in the way of who's better right now.

That was one game. He's had flashes this year, but has been very inconsistent. He just hasn't had nearly the same kind of season as Max. He's capable of a big performance, i'm just saying your chances are better with Scherzer right now.

Finally I can breathe again, good game, let's hope the Tigers will put it together.

The season he had says otherwise. Prove me wrong, JV!

19IP 13H 0R 5BB 33K.
I think he's pitching just fine right now.
October 9th, 2013 at 10:22 AM ^
Exactly. The last time he gave up a run was September 18th against Seattle. Since then he's been lights out.
31 innings, 22 hits, 0 Runs, 0 ER's, 9 walks, and 55 K's.
He should be fine

talks how many times all year about using closers in non-closing situations? Then he uses him in a non save situation. I don' t get this guy sometimes.

Terrible choke job in the 8th...back to Oakland I guess.

Back to Oakland. Lets hope JV has one more Game 5 ALDS complete game shut out in him.
