[Deberg_1990]

Padres vs Dodgers getting ready to start tonight.

Yankees vs Rays going on right now...

[Why Not?]

Cheering for the Padres. Hosmer, Myers and a couple pitchers.

If not them, go Rays

If not them, then go Braves

If not them, go anybody but the Patriots....I mean Astros.

[New World Order]

Not sure why but it feels good to see Padres back in the mix

[Why Not?]

Fun team. Small market. Some loveable ex Royals.

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Definitely rooting for the Padres. They're fun to watch.

[Why Not?]

Definitely rooting for the Padres. They're fun to watch.

Unfortunately looks like our rooting interest is going to be short lived if they don’t get some better at bats. Hosmer and Machado looked like pitchers at the plate tonight.

[Deberg_1990]

WTF? Why would Greinke do that?

[dallaschiefsfan]

Rays now representing all that is good and pure to end the Cheaters run. If they don't put away the Astros, I'll need to adopt the national league team. Blegh.

[CaliforniaChief]

Am I super-vindictive because I really don't want Greinke to ever win a WS? Oh well.

[Why Not?]

Rays vs Braves would be such a fun WS. A team that’s never won it that represents playing somewhat the old fashioned way vs a team that always felt like it underachieved during it’s magic window. But we’ll get Astros vs Dodgers because 2020

Nobody wants the Astros, but that's also the exact scenario we talked about before this season... a team who finished the season with a losing record in the World Series.

[Deberg_1990]

Ouch. Truth bomb


<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">With the ALCS about to start, just a reminder that the only reason the Houston Astros and their sub-.500 record even made the playoffs was because MLB changed the playoff format from 10 to 16 teams literally on the morning the season was to begin.</p>&mdash; Rany Jazayerli (@jazayerli) <a href="https://twitter.com/jazayerli/status/1315435038406840321?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 11, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

[CarlosCarson27]

Lol I missed the first inning. Dodgers up 12-0 in the second inning.
Braves 2-0 lead in series but I still think Dodgers go to WS.

The socks the Dodgers pitcher is wearing, are the stupidest things I've seen lately

[backinblack]

this game is great

Atlanta sports fans aren't allowed to have anything good.

[KC_Connection]

15-0 through 3. Tough scene.

[CarlosCarson27]

15 runs, 13 hits

[tk13]

It's never a good sign when it's the 4th inning and one team is just starting their 2nd turn through the order, and the other team's lineup is making their 4th time through the order in 4 innings.

[DaneMcCloud]

Will anyone watch if the World Series is between the Rays and Braves?

That has to be a nightmare scenario for MLB and Fox.

[jdubya]

Go Blue!

[Megatron96]

15-1 in the 4th? What happened? That's going to be a boring game . . .

[CarlosCarson27]

Will anyone watch if the World Series is between the Rays and Braves?

Dodgers, Rays is expected. Another LA vs florida championship

[CarlosCarson27]

15-1 in the 4th? What happened? That's going to be a boring game . . .

But exciting in a non cliche baseball way

[Deberg_1990]

Braves have a huge fanbase. Rays, not so much....

[backinblack]

it's going to be Rays-Dodgers. Then the Dodgers choke again and the Rays win.

[CarlosCarson27]

4th inning, Dodgers 1-0.

Score more!!!!!!!

[GloryDayz]

BOOM!!! That ball went a LONG way!

[siberian khatru]

This is a very 2015 Royals inning for the Braves

[Simply Red]

it's going to be Rays-Dodgers. Then the Dodgers choke again and the Rays win.

Except tonight happened - otherwise - good call.

[Coach]

Wil Smith doing his best damned work on trying to blow this game.

[CarlosCarson27]

Palm trees, on baseball socks....

[Simply Red]

Snitker is not a good post season manager - it's been pretty telling this series. He's way too loyal.

[Bearcat]

That half-inning took 32 minutes.

[Coach]

That half-inning took 32 minutes.

Because of the damn home plate umpire who refuses to call a damn strike.

[Simply Red]

just about to post - no guarantees the Braves don't tack on more.

[CarlosCarson27]

That half-inning took 32 minutes.

The oddity of baseball

[Coach]

That error by the Dodger 1st baseman on a routine 2 out 6-3 grounder resulted another run scored.

[Coach]

10-2 now.

[Wisconsin_Chief]

Been a Braves fan my whole life, if they win the World Series the same year the Chiefs won the Super Bowl, my childhood sports fandom dreams will officially be accomplished.

Of course it comes in the worst year in modern human history, but I’ll take it.

Lived in Atlanta since 1992 - I was in Buckhead the night they won it all vs. Cleveland - this town went mad! So much fun, I never looked back. The Braves are my #1 MLB team. However; I was never able to get into the Falcons at all. Even when they lost in that SB a few yrs back. Just a boring team and always have been IMO.

[CarlosCarson27]

Will Dodgers last one more game?

[lewdog]

Fuck the Dodgers...........

clapclap.....clapclapclap

[CarlosCarson27]

Still a very close game

[BigRedChief]

Just stopping by to say ..... Fuck those cheating asshole Astros.

[CarlosCarson27]

Dodgers 7-2 !!!!!

[jdubya]

Dodgers showed up

[CarlosCarson27]

Dodgers 3-0 in the 3rd

[sedated]

I don't think MLB thought it through when scheduling a potential game 7 on a Sunday.

[sedated]

Dodgers 3-0 in the 3rd

That's just what the government wants you to think.

[DaneMcCloud]

That's just what the government wants you to think.

LMAO

[Pablo]

I don't think MLB thought it through when scheduling a potential game 7 on a Sunday.

Rams v. 49ers. That should be a west coast turd.

[CarlosCarson27]

Rams v. 49ers. That should be a west coast turd.

If KC was playing SF again or a bottom feeder,, you'd enjoy it.
So Rams fans will enjoy this

[CarlosCarson27]

That's just what the government wants you to think.

Well, obviously they are carrying it out as so.

[jdubya]

Dodgers let this stay too close and now ATL is in their BP. Don’t have a good feeling about this.

[jdubya]

Dodgers force a game 7

[CarlosCarson27]

Lol of course. Smaller season equals 7 game conf championships

[lewdog]

Please closeout the Asstros.

[CarlosCarson27]

They keep playing the Purge siren

[CarlosCarson27]

Men hugging. Neither worried about sexuality or CV!!!!

[Coach]

Good riddance Houston.

[Why Not?]

Poetic justice. Couldn’t have been more brutal for the Astros. Come all the way back from down 3-0 only to basically shrivel and melt away in game 7.

[CarlosCarson27]

Oh God.. don't play that stupid ass- All I do is win , hands go uppp ,stupid ass disco song

[Why Not?]

This awards ceremony is super awkward. Not sure if this gal is just a bad interviewer or the Rays brass is just super dorky.

[bdj23]

I remember when Randy played for the Cardinals and the idiot gm traded him for peanuts.

Fire Mo already

[CarlosCarson27]

DODGERS!!!!!!!!

[lewdog]

Not rooting for the West Coast Yankees. Fuck them.

[CarlosCarson27]

Not rooting for the West Coast Yankees. **** them.

Lol

[Funkstown]

I want an Atlanta vs Tampa Bay World Series. I cannot pull for the fucking Dodgers ever.

[kcxiv]

come on Dodgers, get the world series and keep my all 3 of my major sports teams winning it all in the same calendar year! Chiefs Check, Lakers check. Just 1 more.

[Why Not?]

come on Dodgers, get the world series and keep my all 3 of my major sports teams winning it all in the same calendar year! Chiefs Check, Lakers check. Just 1 more.

[lewdog]

Nick Markakis, the longest tenured MLB player without a WS appearance, may have just fucked himself out of making a WS. Long way to go but that’s a huge momentum swinger

[siberian khatru]

Nick Markakis, the longest tenured MLB player without a WS appearance, may have just ****ed himself out of making a WS. Long way to go but that’s a huge momentum swinger

That fuck up was all Swanson

Same here. But I'm used to the Dodgers shitting their pants now

[Why Not?]

That **** up was all Swanson

I’m sure they had the contact play on. I don’t like that play anyway, but it’s pretty common. Riley certainly fucked up running to 3rd. But all Markakis had to do was hit a fly ball. Or shit, just strikeout at that point. He hit a grounder that would’ve been a DP anyway prior to the wild pitch and then his dumb ass teammate made it a DP anyhow.

Contact play shouldn't be on there with 0 outs. If it was, that's a dumbass decision.

[siberian khatru]

There’s zero reason to go on contact to the 3B with no outs and runners on second and third. Yes, it would’ve been best if Markakis hit a fly ball. But if Swanson stays put they still can score on a fly or still have a contact play to SS with one out.

[Why Not?]

I’m certainly not defending Swanson. Either he or the Braves coaching staff fucked up there. But let’s not act like that was a clutch AB by Markakis.

[siberian khatru]

I’m certainly not defending Swanson. Either he or the Braves coaching staff ****ed up there. But let’s not act like that was a clutch AB by Markakis.

Hey, he made contact. But in retrospect, it would’ve been better if he had struck out.

[Coach]

Nice play by the 2nd baseman. That was a tricky hop when that bounced off the mound.

[Why Not?]

Nice play by the 2nd baseman. That was a tricky hop when that bounced off the mound.

That’s a hell of a play

[lewdog]

Good game tonight.

Fun to watch.

[siberian khatru]

I could feel that coming

[lewdog]

Damn shot there.

[CarlosCarson27]

I could feel that coming

Careful how you say that

[kcxiv]

I remember when I chose all bandwagon teams.

i was Born in Los Angeles! Torrance to be exact. Half my family still lives there! I live IN Central California now. I became a fan of the Chiefs when Steve Deberg was the damn QB! So yeah, bandwagon.

Pasadena

[Funkstown]

Yeah my uncle lives in North Hollywood. Hell. No.

[Coach]

And to the 9th we go....

[lewdog]

I cannot wait to root for the Rays.

[Coach]

And that'll do it.

Dodgers v. Rays.

[The Franchise]

DODGERS BABY!!!!!!

[The Franchise]

Now don’t pitch Kershaw at all in the next series. Fuck.

[Why Not?]

Dodgers off to the WS where they can cement themselves as the Bills spirit animal.

[CarlosCarson27]

Lol
DOYERS

[LittleMeatballNick]

I hope the Rays get swept so I don't have to hear this Tampa Title Town talk all day here.

[lewdog]

Dodgers off to the WS where they can cement themselves as the Bills spirit animal.

Quoted for truth.

Go Rays!

[CarlosCarson27]

Dodgers off to the WS where they can cement themselves as the Bills spirit animal.

Not even close .
Dodgers average a series about every 15 years ago brought their entire history. And they obviously have won some.

I get what you mean but it's lazy trendy sports banter

[lewdog]

I hope the Rays get swept so I don't have to hear this Tampa Title Town talk all day here.

You’re right.

Because Laker and Dodger titles sounds so much better with those annoying fans.

[CarlosCarson27]

You’re right.

Because Laker and Dodger titles sounds so much better with those annoying fans.

LOL

[LittleMeatballNick]

You’re right.

Fair Point. But, Bucs fans are already talking Super Bowl after beating Packers today. being in the tampa area, I have Lighting, Rays, and Bucs fan, and I'm tired of them lol

No idea what your saying prior to your last sentence. Also, when I initially referred to them with the Bills reference, I typed in “since 1988”.

I’m not going to retype that every time. You and anybody else clearly could tell it’s trash talking the Dodgers, a team I greatly dislike. Also, this is an anonymous online message board. It’s literally the perfect place for lazy trendy sports banter.

[L.A. Chieffan]

Man, I'm in shock. I can't believe they didn't blow it

[CarlosCarson27]

Man, I'm in shock. I can't believe they didn't blow it

But Atlanta blew it

[CarlosCarson27]

Yayyyyy!

[CarlosCarson27]

Kershaw looks like he hasn't showered in a while

[Coach]

Glasnow throwing some serious heat so far.

[kcxiv]

Bellinger with a 2 run shot. 2-0 Dodgers

[Coach]

Cash left his pitcher out there too long.

[LittleMeatballNick]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Rays don't seem like the team who plays very well when down? This might be over already. I also have no clue and haven't watched the Rays play this year.

[MAG]

I have never seen a team with more punchable faces than the Dodgers.

[Why Not?]

I have never seen a team with more punchable faces than the Dodgers.

Hahhah. Literally texted this exact same thing on Sunday.

[CarlosCarson27]

I have never seen a team with more punchable faces than the Dodgers.

Why?

[lewdog]

Name one likeable Dodger outside of Kershaw?

[CarlosCarson27]

Maybe the Raptors don't win this time

[CarlosCarson27]

Name one likeable Dodger outside of Kershaw?

What's likeable got to do with it? What's the word on the street about these guys? What's the deal? Lol

[CarlosCarson27]

No days off. Game 2.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

To the pen already

[Coach]

Awful baserunning/decision there.

[lewdog]

Great fucking game!!!

[Coach]

Home plate ump really fucked Snell on some of those pitches.

[CarlosCarson27]

Dodgers homer,5-2, 5th inning.
And Mookie up, full count..
Walked but 2 outs...

Will TB blow it?

[GloryDayz]

Dear L.A.

[CarlosCarson27]

Another home run.

Can anyone hit singles and doubles anymore?

[CarlosCarson27]

And another solo homer.
Seager

[Coach]

Oh boy... TB having issues now.

[CarlosCarson27]

3rd inning, Dodgers 3-0
Just hit a two run single, with two outs.

[jdubya]

Nice DP

[kcxiv]

Dodgers playing 1990's baseball tonight!

[lewdog]

Hopefully after the Dodgers win the Series, Dane can get his championship shirt and leave the Royals thread trolling alone.

[DaneMcCloud]

Hopefully after the Dodgers win the Series, Dane can get his championship shirt and leave the Royals thread trolling alone.

LMAO

[jdubya]

Dodgers 6-2 victory baby!!!!!!

[CarlosCarson27]

Yes. It appears the Rays don't get to be the Raptors this time

[tk13]

Randy Arozarena is the greatest postseason player in baseball history.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Jon Mozeliak is an incompetent fucking stooge.

FTFY

[WhawhaWhat]

This has been a great game.

[Coach]

A see-saw battle now. TB ties it up.

[tk13]

Leaving Baez in to face Arozarena seems risky here.

[Chief Roundup]

Without going back through the thread. Who is for which team?
I hope the Rays win. I am so tired of the Dodgers.

[lewdog]

Fuck the Dodgers with a rusty spoon...........until the end of time.

[Buehler445]

Not sure I’ve seen a pop up bunt before.

[CarlosCarson27]

I'm surprised that some of these pitchers hardly look like they're getting /doing a strong wind up/ step ,when they throw. Doesn't look like enough power is coming

[srvy]

This is a hell of a game. Just hope the Rays can keep the Dodgers' misery rolling.

[lewdog]

Congrats, you got an out. Wow, amazing job.

Sit the fuck down.

[tk13]

All on Brett Phillips now.

[Why Not?]

All on Brett Phillips now.

Yep. Basically the Rays season comes down to him.

[Coach]

HOLY SHIT.

[WhawhaWhat]

Holy shit that happened.

[tk13]

LMAO BRETT PHILLIPS! HOLY CRAP. ROYAL MAGIC.

[siberian khatru]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT

[Why Not?]

He did it!!!!!!

Well, him and some terrible defense!

[lewdog]

FUCK YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

BRETT!!!! He just had his Christian Colon moment!

[srvy]

Holy crap Brett Philips the hero damn. Happy for that dude!

['Hamas' Jenkins]

Holy fuck that was hilarious.

[CarlosCarson27]

If you can't figure out it's staged after what the catcher and outfielder just did.....

[Buehler445]

ROFL.

That was straight terrible.

[lcarus]

He deserved a hit there after the ump gave him 2 bullshit strikes.

[pugsnotdrugs19]

That was fun.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

So happy for Brett

[WhawhaWhat]

Did Brett Phillips almost pass out?

[TribalElder]

That was awesome ROFL

[The Franchise]

Fuck Roberts. Fuck Jansen.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

This Rays team remind me of the 2014 and 2015 Royals

[Why Not?]

This Rays team remind me of the 2014 and 2015 Royals

Very much so.

[Why Not?]

That replay with Phillips hatless and smiling could go in the dictionary by the definition of happy. Good for him.

[mkp785]

Holy hell. I can't believe that just happened lol

[Coach]

Shades of the Duda throw....

[siberian khatru]

I love Brett Phillips. Always have

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Phillips just had his Christian Colon moment

[TomBarndtsTwin]

Wow.

What a finish.

This Rays team is fun as hell to watch.

A little ‘royal’ magic maybe carrying them to a Title?!?

[Deberg_1990]

Brett Phillips!

[Demonpenz]

Feels like the baseball Gods are just in the Rays favor

[Demonpenz]

I don't care what anyone says. THAT WAS A GREAT CALL BY JOE BUCK

[Sorry]

If you can't figure out it's staged after what the catcher and outfielder just did.....

And for the fucking love of fucking fuck if they’re going to toss a game they don’t do it on that play. Read 8 men out. They didn’t do anything blatant.

And even if you’re going to suggest they’re doing shit to make it exciting they’re not going to have a dude that’s 0 for the century rip one and then the game winner is a dude falls down. That’s not how you engineer entertainment.

[backinblack]

Dodgers choking again, what a shock.

should never let this team in the post season again, they're just embarrassing to watch. Best team in baseball lol.

All the pressure on Kershaw tomorrow. What could go wrong?

Lol you sound like a tinfoil immature idiot who prob subscribed to Qanon bullshit. “It’s a billion dollar industry so they must pull magical strings, derp” that’s not critical thought, that’s a fucking loser playing sci fi fantasies. You’ve easily never been in an athletic competition nor can you produce any peer reviewed credible studies supporting your claims

That is quite possibly the dumbest take I’ve read on this site. The dumbest take in a long and illustrious history of dumb takes. Congratulations.

So what exactly are you saying? That the whole entire thing is a theater production and every play is scripted? That one team is decided to be the winner beforehand and the players just have to "do whatever they gotta do" to ensure that outcome? Just curious what exactly your theory entails. I'll buy that refs/umps have tried to rig games. I'll buy that league big wigs favor teams with bigger stars and larger markets. I'll buy that there have been occasions where players have thrown games for monetary gain. But I don't buy that all pro sports are a scripted medium like an episode of frickin Welcome Back Kotter. That's just dumb.

[Buehler445]

ROFL

At least it’s not an elimination game.

[KChiefs1]

I love Brett Phillips. Always have


Me too.

I couldn’t be happier for anyone.

[mlyonsd]

That was insane.

[jdubya]

Dodgers over the last 5-7 years should have almost 3 rings by now. This year they are hands down the best team in baseball and talent alone carried them to the post season. Roberts then proceeds to mismanage the pitching staff year after year after year.

Every Dodger fan in the world knows KJ hasnt been dependable with a 1 run lead since roughly 2016. When I saw him warming up in the top of the 9th, I told my wife 1 run wasnt enough and they need insurance runs. He had no command as seen when the catcher set up low, KJ threw middle or high. Catcher set up high, KJ threw middle or low and his pitches lacked much movement. It was a disaster that falls on Roberts.

Because of pure talent, I still suspect the Dodgers will win the series but it shouldnt be this close. Today Kershaw should have been throwing for the final WS winner. Screw you Roberts.

I like those Days caps!
But also ,they are kind of minor league_ish

[CarlosCarson27]

Heyyyyy, language

[lewdog]

Congrats on your title, Dodger fans.

I can't wait for the miserable celebration and offseason with all of you.

[lewdog]

Oh nevermind. I'll remind you that this title has an asterisk with it in a 60 game season.

Losers.

This may have had something behind it had the Dodgers just been an average team that somehow had a cinderella season! Shit isnt over though, anything can still happen.

[CarlosCarson27]

3-2

[WilliamTheIrish]

35 years ago tonight Denny Matthews said these famous words:

”NO OUTS TO GO”!!!!

5 years ago tonight Alex Gordon crushed a one out solo shot to dead center to tie game 1 of the 2015 WS.

[Coach]

5 years ago tonight Alex Gordon crushed a one out solo shot to dead center to tie game 1 of the 2015 WS.

One of the best games I ever attended. Right up there in the AFC Championship Game against the Titans.

[CarlosCarson27]

Tonight, tonight, Tonight

Doyers!

[tk13]

Arozarena is the greatest player to ever play professional baseball.

[Coach]

Struck out the side.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Arozarena is the greatest player to ever play professional baseball.

Randy Bonds and the .200s

[Coach]

These wasted opportunities might come back to bite TB in the ass.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Zunino will see that Meatball in his sleep

[CarlosCarson27]

These wasted opportunities might come back to bite TB in the ass.

Meh, 7 games is likely

[Sassy Squatch]

Should've beaten the shit out of Gonsolin while you had the chance.

[Why Not?]

Live by analytics, die by analytics I guess. Absolutely zero reason to take Snell out of the game there. Cash gonna have a long winter to ponder his reverse ....shit who was the Mets skipper when we beat them? Terry something or another?

[lewdog]

LOL at thinking this shitty Dodgers team wouldn't have folded in an actual 162 game season.

[CarlosCarson27]

I go upstairs to get pizza...Dodgers score on a wild pitch.

[CarlosCarson27]

LOL at thinking this shitty Dodgers team wouldn't have folded in an actual 162 game season.

Lol at hypotheticals

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Cash you’re an idiot

*someone cue up the Alex Jones I’m kinda retarded meme

[lewdog]

Lol at hypotheticals

LOL asterisk title

[CarlosCarson27]

LOL asterisk title

Lol at opinion!!!!!

Didn't they do this 3 other times already.

And 2 went 7 games.
So, 50 games, 160? Makes no difference

[chiefzilla1501]

Not rooting for the dodgers. But I can't root for Tampa to win this one. That idiotic decision to pull snell can't be rewarded.

[lewdog]

Lol at opinion!!!!!

Is that an argument, because I'm not following?

[CarlosCarson27]

Is that an argument, because I'm not following?

Your saying 50 games, if they win, us bogus
I'm saying they've the series in legit seasons, so it's not that
Odd.
But if course this is where you say, what's the point? They list those series ,lol

And that you win, lol

Holy shit man, how drunk are you?

[CarlosCarson27]

Holy shit man, how drunk are you?

Might be the cheese in the pizza.
Havent had a beer in months.

Or it might be sugar?

[Why Not?]

Arozarena didn’t homer so that’s it. Dodgers win 2020 WS. Gotta give them credit, they finally got one. Oh but definitely asterisk.

[CarlosCarson27]

Kiss my asterisk!!!!!!

LMAO

[Coach]

And those 2-3 RISP that TB stranded came back and bit them in the ass.

[CarlosCarson27]

Mookie!!!!

[KC_Connection]

Glad the Rays are going down. This sport has gone to shit completely. The Rays and other orgs like them run these teams and manage these games like they are computer simulations rather than human beings playing a game. Making decisions based on general probabilities without accounting for game context will never not be completely idiotic.

[Coach]

And to the 9th we go.

[New World Order]

Here we go Rays here we go

[KC_Connection]

Bringing in a reliever who has allowed a run in 7 straight games over your Cy Young pitcher throwing a shutout in the 6th with 70 pitches simply because the general season percentages in your simulator say it is better. What a bunch of clowns LMAO

[Coach]

Yeah, you gotta swing at that. That was right in the middle.

[ChiefsCountry]

Congrats to the Dodgers

[CarlosCarson27]

Dodger fans at their feet....all 50 of them

[The Franchise]

Fuck yes!!!!!! Chiefs and Dodgers in the same year!

[DaneMcCloud]

Van Halen!

[CarlosCarson27]

DOYERS!!!!!!

[kcxiv]

Bullpen has been insane all post season well regular season too.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Easily the best team in baseball. Short season and fucked up postseason makes it more impressive. More fluky shit could have happened

[ChiefsCountry]

8 straight different World Series champions.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Bringing in a reliever who has allowed a run in 7 straight games over your Cy Young pitcher throwing a shutout in the 6th with 70 pitches simply because the general season percentages in your simulator say it is better. What a bunch of clowns LMAO

Yeah that was insane. Just a criminally bad decision

[The Franchise]

Go fuck yourself, Lewdog!

[Red Dawg]

Who fucking cares?

[lcarus]

The Dodgers spent 108 million compared to the Rays 28 million. Good for them I guess. MLB sucks.

[KC_Connection]

Yeah that was insane. Just a criminally bad decision
What happens when a bunch of number crunchers are making every game decision.

[kcpasco]

Congrats, but a 60 game baseball season is kind of a joke.

[KC_Connection]

The Dodgers spent 108 million compared to the Rays 28 million. Good for them I guess. MLB sucks.
MLB doesn’t suck because of spending, that’s for damn sure. Would be better if teams spent more instead of penny pinching and running any decent veteran out of the league for league minimum guys.
