World Series Game Five Discussion Thread, Yankees at Phillies, November 2, 2009

New York Yankees at Philadelphia Phillies, Nov 2, 2009 7:57 PM EST


One thing is for certain: This is the last baseball game in Philadelphia this year.

The Phillies, down 3 games to 1, look to stay alive in the 2009 World Series behind their ace Cliff Lee, who has been virtually unhittable the entire postseason.  He'll be opposed by A.J. Burnett, who was virtually unhittable in Game Two.

Keep that glimmer of hope alive.

Charlie sez: “We’ve blown 22 games that we were leading after 7. That shows something about the resilience of our team.”

He and Bobby Valentine share the same dealer…Bobby V said Lidge was the best pitcher the phillies had all year…that wasn’t even true before Lee arrived

Exactly. It’s a fine line — you can’t come out first pitch swinging every time, but the patient tact the Phils took in Game 2 played into Burnett’s “meatballs down the middle for Strike 1” approach.

They’ll have to pull him out of the Mexican League first.

Victorino should get yanked right now and sent for X-rays. If it’s not broken, they can at least let him see how he feels Wednesday morning (if there’s a game).

But WC is right — if Shane’s done, then the roster spot will go to Cairo.

Agreed…

But, in the case that is goes 7. Charlie will manage it like an all star game. Hamels will start on the shortest leash possible. Then Lee is good for 3, Blanton for 4, and then everyone else.

Unless our bats reawaken, no way I take Lee out until he finishes 8 or obviously is losing his stuff. Maybe not even then.

If you guys, Rosenthal and McCarver, understood what BABIP was, you would know why he was frustrated.

I’m a huge Happ fan, but he hasn’t exactly been gangbusters in the postseason, and in the big picture, he’s simply an inferior pitcher to Hamels. I don’t see it as much of a decision, honestly.

by PhillyFriar on Nov 2, 2009 10:16 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

It seems kind of ridiculous to use “postseason performance” as an argument in favor of starting Hamels over Happ.

by Jay on Nov 2, 2009 10:17 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

You’re right, and that’s not what I’m advocating. I’m saying that Hamels is a better pitcher than Happ, and Happ doesn’t have anything (i.e. recent awesome performance, facing a lefty-dominated lineup) that would cause me to start an inferior pitcher.

by PhillyFriar on Nov 2, 2009 10:19 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

The “something” is Hamels’ recent performance, not Happ’s. Hamels has allowed 25 ER in his last six starts, 28.2 IP. That’s a 7.85 ERA over a long month of starts. At what point do you say, okay, maybe “merely J.A. Happ” would be a better option? 10 bad starts in a row? 15?

While this is generally true, the reality is that trying to cobble together nine winning innings out of relievers (and short-rest starters) is not much of a winning strategy. The starter matters.

In terms of a possible Game Seven, yeah. It would/will be his throw day. He probably could give you 40-50 pitches. Nothing that happens the rest of the way tonight will change that.
