Marlins topic: What's all the fuss over Joe Girardi? Why is everyone so excited to get him here? Is it just because he's been sitting on the Yankees' bench? Frankly, I don't get it. But none of the potential candidates really excite me and I don't have a better option either.
Let's use today's thread to discuss the managerial possibilities and tonight's ALCS game.
Playoffs: The Cardinals and Astros have a travel day today, so we only have American League action. The scene shifts out West, as the White Sox will take on the Angels in Los Angeles/Anaheim.
Here's today's matchup:
AL - 8:20: White Sox (Garland) at Angels (Lackey)
Since the AL playoffs are back, that means we're subjected to Tim McCarver again. Tim McCarver is an awful announcer. If you think he is too, you might like this site.
And the playoffs wouldn't be complete without ichthyomancy:
