Nothing is more spookier than October baseball -OFFICIAL 2023 MLB PLAYOFFS THREAD

[Surreal]

A week off doesn’t help you in baseball. It’s not a physically taxing sport like football. In baseball you want to get into a rhythm and ride it. A week of not seeing actual live pitching throws you all the way off.

Football is the only sport where a bye actually gives you an advantage.

Understandable but they earned that week off after 162 games

Cmon Twins. Get to the bullpen early and need Pablo to give the team 6 innings.

 

[Mike_Pipeson]

We need consistency with calls

 

[mozichrome]

2 more runs. that might be it

 

[Mike_Pipeson]

I knew those two bad ball calls would kill us

 

[Nabs]

Keep booing Correa

 

[Canada Goose]

Carlos Correa is killing his old team this game

 

[TrillaMonsoon]

Pablo Lopez is great. He was amazing tonight. I think it was the 5th or 6th inning, the change up he threw to Yordan on a 3-2 count was an incredible pitch and it felt like it was gonna be the last chance the Astros would have against him.

Correa is shytting on Houston. What a start to the series for him.

Correa

An amazing game from him. As Michael cole would say, "VINTAGE CORREA!"

I liked the Twins chances against Framber and I want say they had a good game against Javier earlier this year. Sonny Gray gonna have to limit the walks and not have people on base facing Tucker and Yordan. Twins gotta win Game 3 because I dont like their pitching options in game 4. If they can get to a game 5, you got Pablo ready for that. Never give up

MLB has a problem. Baseball is not the sport where having 6 days off benefits you. The top seeds are getting fukked.

Especially since the wild card teams get a day off before and after their series to reset their pitching.

It's a benefit you are home it's no excuses.

this is what happens when casuals who don't give a fukk wanna see every team make the playoffs

Correa is shytting on Houston. What a start to the series for him.

Correa is basically MadBum, where honestly, his regular seasons are meaningless. Once he's in October, he's a totally different player.

 

[TrillaMonsoon]

Twins won’t one one game in the series

 

[Mike_Pipeson]

Correa won that game single handely. He was calling tendencies and types of pitches.
Houston been horrible at home so I am good with winning one in Houston.
