The Crazy MLB playoffs

[notin]

On paper, the Rays should have the advantage.

 

I just don't have a lot of confidence in the Rays' hitting, while the Dodgers have been able to hit the Rays pitching pretty well.

 

I'm not feeling it for the Rays. They might win Game 6, but there's no way they beat the Dodgers 2 in a row. I think the Dodgers take it in six.

 

Also worth mentioning that the Dodgers have not beaten the Rays two games in a row yet. I think the Rays have the advantage in game 6. But Walker Buehler in game 7 tips the scales in their favor....

It's over.

 

Yup, Rays have the Chokers right where they want them.

[Thunder]

I think the Dodgers are fully capable of choking, but I want them to win tonight so much for so many selfish reasons.

 

But, it would not surprise me at all if the Rays win in 7.

How many of those reasons contain the phrase "AJ Pollock"?

It's gut check time for both clubs. Who will step up and be the hero? The Dodgers have the advantage in overall talent , but Gonsolin is kind of questionable in a game of this magnitude. And , who will Dave Roberts use to close a tight game tonight and/or tomorrow night? That is a big question mark.

While it is a question mark, at least he does have mutliple options available in Jansen, Treinen and Graterol. And possibly Kolarek if it is matchup-based...

Somewhere between 100% and 100%

Dodgers need to do it to prove to themselves that they can. They've been the best team in the NL for the last 4 years. Coming up empty again would be tragic. In 2017, the Astros were cheating, and in 2018, the Sox were clearly the better team. But for the NLDS choke last year, and a choke here this year, they have no excuses.

Well yeah. Depends on your perspective

I'm just hoping for some good baseball to continue for one more day before the long, cold winter sets in.

Ha. Well played.

It would be nice for the Dodgers to win for Vin Scully.

[jacksonianmarch]

This kid is insane

It's going to snow here on Friday!!!!!! I'm excited

Rays offense has been pretty pathetic. They need about 6 or more runs to win tonight.

The Rays can shut down the Dodgers offense. They have a great pitcher going, tonight.

 

I could see a 2-1 or 3-2 win.

It's been their weakness for the last 10-12 years or so

[d-money]

Gotta a feeling the dodgers will score pretty soon. They will find a way.

[redsoxrules]

[illinoisredsox]

Agree but it’s the way they’ve played it all year.

[moonslav59]

I expected Snell to go 8.

[redsoxrules]

Idiot. You deserve to lose this game Cash

[d-money]

f***ing manager should be fired after the game for that ******** move.

[moonslav59]

Wow!!!!! Taking snell out of the game. Boy if this backfires this manager is gonna hear it.

[d-money]
