The NLDS is getting interesting in a hurry.DVR, Eno Sarris and Britt Ghiroli take a deep dive into both National League Division Series after a dramatic opening weekend.The Braves stole a game in Los Angeles without using Chris Sale and now head home tied 1-1 with Sale lined up against Yoshinobu Yamamoto in Game 3. Did the Dodgers get too far ahead of themselves by setting up Yamamoto with the NLCS in mind — and could that decision come back to haunt them?Plus, Atlanta’s bullpen has stepped up in a huge way, Ray Kerr continues to emerge as an October weapon, and the Dodgers’ lineup suddenly faces enormous pressure.Then, Britt takes us inside two incredible Brewers-Padres games in Milwaukee. The Brewers head to San Diego with a 2-0 series lead despite defensive mistakes and less-than-dominant starting pitching. Did San Diego pull Michael King too early? Was asking Mason Miller for six outs a mistake? And can the Padres’ offense finally capitalize after leaving 20 runners on base through the first two games?Finally, the crew tackles one of October’s biggest debates: Do analytics actually work in the postseason? Or does playoff baseball require teams to think differently when every pitch, matchup and managerial decision is magnified?Like, Subscribe and drop us a comment!Hosts: Derek VanRiper & Eno Sarris Guest: Britt Ghiroli Executive Producer & Editor: McEnroe Francise-mail: ratesandbarrels@gmail.comJoin our Discord: https://discord.gg/FyBa9f3wFeSubscribe to The Athletic: theathletic.com/ratesandbarrelsRates & Barrels MERCH: https://rates-and-barrels.printify.me/#brewers #dodgers #braves #padres #mlbplayoffs 00:00 NLDS Deep Dive01:57 Braves-Dodgers: Atlanta Steals the Split03:54 How Atlanta’s Bullpen Beat the Dodgers05:00 Are the Dodgers in Trouble?06:57 Ray Kerr Becomes an October Weapon10:51 Dodgers’ Curious Bunt Decision14:05 Did LA Make a Mistake With Yamamoto?18:05 Sale-Yamamoto & What Comes Next21:25 Are Teams Pushing Pitchers Too Hard?25:27 ABS Changes October Baseball27:37 Brewers-Padres Game 2 Deep Dive28:21 Did the Padres Pull Michael King Too Early?31:35 Mason Miller’s Six-Out Gamble35:28 Padres’ Offense Comes Up Short39:04 Brewers Escape Milwaukee Up 2-041:29 What Happened to Mason Miller?46:38 Can San Diego’s Bullpen Recover?48:35 Brewers-Padres Game 3 Preview50:05 Is Playoff Baseball Actually Different?54:03 Do Analytics Work in October?58:53 The Analytics vs. Eye Test Debate Hosted on Acast.
