"Inside-the-park homerun" was on the list of things I guessed in my head that I would miss today.

They have all the makings of a repeat story, which of course means they'll fall short in heartbreaking fashion. Or will they?

Kershaw was bested by my opponent in fantasy by 2.6 points today.

Astros are my pick. If they stay healthy it will take a great team to beat them.

Gabe Kapler made a pitching change without having anyone warming up first. I've never seen that before. Analytics are nice, but you still need to know how to manage people. Philadelphia fans are going to eat him alive.

I saw that last night, unbelievable.

And he’s made 18 pitching changes through 27 innings this season! Holy S. WTF

Yikes, Kapler, that is messy

So... how soon is the Hook coming for Gabe Kepler?

I’m not sure he makes it out of April

Nah, I can't imagine he will continue to be so brazenly incompetent for long. He'll find his feet

He once tore his Achilles during a home run trot, so anything is possible.

The Kaplar thing is pretty funny.

In the first 38 games this season, 289 pitchers have been used. More than the entire 1968 season which was over 1600 games. Thanks Gabe

If starters are only going to throw 68 pitches why not run your best starters out on 3 days rest more often?

Seriously though if 5 or 6 inning is a game now for a 30 million dollar a year ace, shouldn't they be available more often?
