MLB general postseason 2020 thread

Biggest fuck up was Roberts’ and how he played Baez anyway.

Including telling Baez he was done and then putting him back in, just before the second home run he allowed.

Jansen probably is king goat as he gave up the hit and then was not in the right position backing up the catcher when the ball got away.

Rozarena slapping home like it’s dat ass

Glasnow pitching even worse than the score shows.

handy of the dodgers to run into an out

Glasnow, breaking out the El Duque style hide behind the arm.

Got to admit fellas, this year is probably the less amount of baseball I have watched since I was like 8 or 9.

Sad ass year.

That said, I was tied hardcore to the playoffs in '79 as I watched McNamara's band go down in flames to the Pirates and lost a $2 dollar bet to my mom on the f-in Pirates as I took the Orioles. Bitch made me pay and reminds me about it to this day. :)

Arozarena's swing reminds me of Tampa native Gary Sheffield.

well that is not a good start to an inning

feel like the entire "Kershaw melts down in the postseason" narrative refers to basically this kind of inning exactly

Cruddy D by the Dodgers.

Squeeze to the right might work here, if he got a pitch to do so.

Have no idea if this guy can lay down a bunt, probably can't as that skill is gone for the most part.

F-in terrible, you got a lefty pitching and they pulled the second basemen. You don't even have to lay a GOOD bunt just fair and to the right to score a run.

wow that's one way to get out of it

amazing by Kershaw too

That was a pretty good pitch by Glasnow at 99, might be getting relaxed.

Now at 100 pitches in the game, Glasnow finally finds his groove.

ok, I'll stop posting.

Classic Glasnow outing so far.

Muncy grooved that one...dude has some pop.

Every home run looks impressive in that ballpark.

Got to say the manta ray hat and the lime green stirrups ruin a pretty nice road uniform.

Alright this is where Dave Roberts either becomes a WS winning manager or loses his job. No pressure bud.

Whose bullpen is better at this point, as the starters are about cooked either way?

On one hand the Dodgers have seen a lot of the Rays’ bullpen, enough to be confident against it, especially after last night... on the other hand Jansen and Baez and Dave Roberts.

those pretzels have no salt

Imagine being able to throw at 101 mph.

Great stuff by Gonzalez.

Yes!

Beautiful

That was a hard game to watch! My liver can’t handle this.

I love you, Clayton Kershaw

Haha

Rays seem like they're in a pretty good place with Snell going tonight--get to game 7, then it's a coin flip.

i think game 7 has to favour the dodgers

yeah, i'll take walker buehler in a game 7

Let’s see with this game first. Snell can go wild.

Arozarena goin wilder!

Arozarena is how I imagined Puig’s career would go.

Ok, Snell seems to be on. That 3 pitches strikeout on Seager was gorgeous.

still pretty early in his career! but yeah, he's been magnificent so far. unless the cardinals do especially well next year, i expect their president of baseball ops (mozeliak, who is still effectively the GM) to be gone. it's not exactly fair, i guess, but arozarena becoming a hearo may be his death knell

*hero

I mean this is still a pretty small sample, relatively. He was hot and cold all season until ending it on a serious hot streak.

I just want to believe this will be forever.

He was hot and cold all season until ending it on a serious hot streak.

you talking about arozarena? he only played 23 games in the regular season (called up at the very end of august), but he hit .281/.382/.641, with 7 HRs

i think he had covid-19 earlier in the year

Just 23 games?! He was added and dropped like 3 times in my other league! (Once by me)
