My thinking is that he was all about turning cloak from day one. If he throws in against Tywin, there’s still a good chance he loses even if things go perfectly. If he initially throws in against Tywin initially and then turns cloak, the Starks are totally screwed pretty much no matter what. That’s the safest bet. Plus the Boltons don’t even like the Starks.

I wouldn't say he seems "cool with it"

His interactions with Ramsay imply that he’s using his insane bastard for all his dirty work, and doesn’t have any confidence in Ramsay succeeding him. I think he’s planning to dispose of Ramsay when he’s done with him, and just stringing him along with the idea of legitimacy so that Ramsay doesn’t do the same to him.

But also realizes that he underestimated his neighbors’ willingness to hold a grudge, and overestimated the stability of the Lannisters. Without their support, House Bolton is fucked; Roose is quietly and calmly grasping for straws now.

Yeah

But none of them want their houses wiped off the face of Westeros either, and everyone knows that that’s what happens to people who go against the Lannisters. With Lannister/Tyrell backing and control of the North’s resources during a long, brutal winter, House Bolton could definitely have come out as Lords Paramount of the North for at least a few generations.

He definitely underestimated Manderly & Glover, but I think if House Lannister hadn’t completely self-destructed Roose would be in a much stronger position.

in your argument, you stated that they fucking owed him the decision, so whether he only throws 115 or 140 pitches is irrelevant.

they owe him no matter what, so he will throw as many pitches and give up as many runs as is necessary until he completes the 5th inning.

The dude is still capable of stealing some bases, so obviously he’s capable of running. When you jog to fly balls it pisses me off.

Playoff scenario question!

Say the Giants and Dbacks finish the season tied for the division…and also tied with the Braves and Cardinals for the Wild Card.

Basically, the Giants/Dbacks/Braves/Cardinals are tied for 2 playoff spots. How would the playoff picture work out?

I was thinking this: the Giants/Dbacks would play a one game playoff for the division. Should the Giants win, the Dbacks are one out. Then the Cards/Braves play a game, and say the Braves win, so the Cards are one out…But since there was essentially a 4 way tie for the WC/Division, would the Dbacks get another shot against say..the winner of the Cards/Braves?

But there are 3 teams, not 2.

Giants/Dbacks is for the division, but Braves/Cards is for WC. So if one team loses the division do they get another chance at the WC?

I misread your scenario. I would think it’s based on records, so whoever loses the Giants/Dbacks playoff for the West would be out of the running for the WC and theres a playoff between Braves/Cards for WC.

Say there is a 3 way tie for the NL Wild Card and 2 way tie for NL West

Is this how it would work out? Obviously this is a hypothetical, so who wins/loses is TBD (this is just for argument’s sake)

Giants vs. Dbacks: Giants win.
Braves vs. Cardinals: Braves win.
Giants win division, Braves lead wild card.
Cards vs. Dbacks: Dbacks win.

Now would there be a Braves vs. Dbacks to decide the final spot? Or would the Dbacks and Cards be out?

Last year, if the Giants had lost Game 162, the loser of Game 163 would have been 91-72 while the Braves were 91-71. They still would have played a game for the wild card.

Dbacks vs. Cardinals: Dbacks win.
