    Boo hoo. Sadness

    What an incredible regular season, and a heartbreaking three games.

    Can the O's be good next year? They seem to have a year of wonder, and then 10 years of same-old-same-old-bad. 

    After 2012 it became harder to follow them because they were consistently the worst team. This year there were pops of brilliance, and I started to listen to them again. Should I be hopeful, and look to the future? Or, should I be realistic and rely on the past?

    I think you can be optimistic. If anything they need a few more established starting pitchers and probably should add to the bullpen mix since Bautista is not going to pitch next year.

    O's will be fine next year after having a really great season. They're going to be in the playoff hunt for a few years to come, in my opinion.

    The only good thing about the Rangers winning is that we'll actually be able to watch the game with a new start time. Hoping for a strong outing from Urquidy!!

    I'm surprised the Orioles got swept. I would be rooting for Texas, but now i'm not sure Pearl-Jam-Smileys

    Man, I despise the modern strategy of pulling starters after 2 or 3 innings. I would think starters hate getting pulled in what amounts to more of a relief appearance.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Thought I was the only one who saw this. 😂 
    Can we get the Rangers and a PJ loving team in the World Series?

    The only thing worse than those four home runs is listening to darling and Costas calling it…

    They were/are awful but the horrid pitching performance is far worse.

    Elias Sports Bureau said the 4 2/3 innings by Dodgers starting pitchers are the fewest in the first three games of any postseason series. I'm surprised they kept Lynn in there to allow the four homers.

    They showed the 4 guys w 100rbis stats for the playoffs with Betts, Freeman, Muncy and Martinez as absent...  That's a lot of progress thrown out the window.

    they could put them on the side of a milk carton.

    I was texting a buddy who’s a d-bags fan….yes, they do exist….I told him “thanks, but now you’re on your own”….meaning, beating the fucking dodgers was great but I can’t root for your boys any longer. I think I’d root for braves or phils but I’m not 100% sure. the AL teams have bochy and dusty but they both have rings and I’m not super fond of their teams. 

    my historical hatred of the d-bags goes back to the bought WS with schilling and unit. the current team is not particularly hateable. now that the super villian is out, it’s hard to chose.

    for me, the dodgers string of futility is at 35 years….even their fans know the mini season doesn’t count.

    special shout out, too, the the detroit trade deadline SP who preferred to stay in detroit rather than go to LA.

    instead, the dodgers got lance lynn.

    I was wondering if he was related to Fred Lynn (he is not).

    according to Wikipedia he grew up in Indianapolis and was a Yankees fan. Where's that sports fraud thread? Pearl-Jam-Smileys
