Join Matthew Trueblood and others in a live chat during the NL Wild Card game between the Rockies and the Diamondbacks.
NL WC Game Chat: Let's get Wild, folks.
I apologize
for nothing.
-Matt Trueblood
Doug Thorburn (Wild Card, AZ): So, given that J-Gray has been better at altitude, does he get a boost tonight playing in the league's 2nd-highest stadium?
NL WC Game Chat: "What's your preferred pick thickness when you're playing blues on a Fender?" B.B. King asked.
I mean shit, Doug.
(I wonder if the lack of a humidor matters? He still does rely somewhat on those breaking pitches, and so many guys report having to just scrap them when they pitch at Chase.)
alcrisafulli (Wash, DC): What is this garbage? I was told there would be Cardinals.
NL WC Game Chat: Before the season, I picked the Cards to be facing Arizona in this game. So they let me down, too.
Dusty (Colorado): I know you've talked about him before, but what makes you so high on Wander Javier?
NL WC Game Chat: His name. It's a 70 name.
Rob Mains (The wilds of upstate NY): Hey Matt, sorry I can't join you--no wifi, just got cable working. Anyway, what do you see as Gray's problem so far?
NL WC Game Chat: Neither breaking ball is working. I mean both of them are usually monsters, and tonight, both of them have been virtually useless. Blame the air? The lack of a humidor? More likely, it's just bad timing.
