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

[pete clemenza]

what about usc & ucla

What about them? USC is hot at the moment, but that's a private school. And nobody gives AF about UCLA

 

[Gritsngravy]

I get it yall want playoff success but let’s not act like freeman and betts didn’t carry the dodgers to a 100 wins this year with depleted pitching

 

[King Poetic]

Time to walk into dodger stadium next year and see them raised the 2023 division banner

 

[Leasy]

Phillies finishing the Braves tonight

7-4

 

[Dipsey Doo]

Dodgers

At some point, we will win a full season World Series.

The postseason flameouts are a cruel joke at this point.

Starting rotation was looking great in Spring Training

Then everyone got hurt and Urias lost his mind

Mookie and Freddie another postseason no show

Dave Roberts is a good manager, but at a certain point maybe a different voice in the room needs to be heard. This postseason failure really isn't his fault. Injuries killed this team.

Maybe next year, try not to win the division?

 

[Spence]

Dave Roberts will have to be the sacrificial lamb for this one and it’s well overdue. 100 win team flames out, doesn’t win a single game in the postseason and once/if the Braves lose, this thing in the NL is gonna be wide open.

Good luck to the Rangers against the Astros but Houston ain’t lying down. The time to swipe them off the board was in the final 2 weeks of the regular season when they were scraping to get into the postseason. Every AL team in September apparently didn’t get the memo that stopping the Astros BEFORE October was the mission.

Fire Cashman and Boone BTW

I posted it before, the AL fkd around and not only let us in but also handed us the division so we could reset our rotation

The pitching has been such an issue over the last decade. Whether it was a lack of relievers or the injuries. Can’t forget dumbass deadbeats Bauer and Urias.

 

[blues_funk_reggae]

I'm at the point with baseball where I don't care about my team winning 100 games, winning the division, players having MVP type seasons, setting records, etc. etc. none of that sh*t matters apparently.

let my team win 88 games, get a wild card spot, get hot at the right time, maybe a player comes over in a trade deadline deal and gets hot (Cespedes 2015), maybe a couple players come up from the minors and contribute (Cabrera 2003), and I'll take my chances with a hot run at the world series.

 

[Mike_Pipeson]

The only team the bye works for is the Astros

 

[SubZeroDegrees]

They doing the chop in Philly

The whole Phillies community is disrespectful.

From the star players to the fans.

I love it.

Astros will have to choke this thing away and I don’t see them doing their best Dodgers impression since they can beat every team still in the post season. The time to start colluding against them was September 1.

 

[blues_funk_reggae]

I still don't know how Arizona went 8-16 in July, then had a 9 game losing streak to start August, and are somehow playing in the NLCS with an 84-78 record, and undefeated in the playoffs so far.

 

[King Poetic]

I would have never thought the texas rangers or Arizona both would be in the LCS…

Texas u always thought, yeah they got good bats but the pitching but they murdered Baltimore or tampa so easy

Arizona losing the last 3 games of the series, u like these bums are easy exits, but they somehow took care of Milwaukee and LA

Baseball needed these upsets

I think out of all sports Baseball is the most unpredictable. I would love to see Phillies and Diamondbacks

Robert’s problem

Every season its burn the bullpen out.. starters go 5 five innings and he run straight to the bullpen

Post season come and situational pitching comes up , he’s loss.. comes to rotating the lineup he doesn’t do it

He’s going to keep his job because of the 2020 championship..
