  1. i bet indians fans all over the world are trying hard to convince themselves that a 22 game winning streak is better than a world series
  2. yeah, nats fans will have no shortage of schadenfreude material if they win tomorrow
  3. i'm kind of rooting for the yankees and i don't really know why
  4. sale, kluber, kershaw, and grienke gave all been knocked around this postseason. 8 runs in 4 games is disappointing. it's hard for me to care too much about the rainout when we got the massive scherzer break to begin with. oh well, if we do end up losing, I guess it's easier to swallow this way instead of heartbreaking losses What massive Scherzer break? One of Strasburg/Scherzer was going to start twice and the other once and that's what happened. Plus Scherzer absolutely dominated in his start and should be available out of the pen in game 5. And Strasburg dominated in both his starts so it's not like you can say the Nats would be better off with Max starting twice instead. The ability of the Nats to start Gio a second time instead of Tanner Roark, by far the worst starter on either team, was a dramatic break for Washington ehh, scherzer is better than strasburg. 2 starts of stras instead is 2 scherzer starts seems much more favorable to me. and despite only giving up 1 hit, i wouldn't call scherzer's game 3 "absolutely dominant", at least not by his standards. 3 walks and 7 strikeouts. he was vulnerable. I'm not raging or anything. winning the central made this an acceptable title defense to me. I just don't want to see people complaining about the rainout all offseason if the cubs lose. you face great pitching in the postseason. the cubs need to hit better.
  5. The only thing that has really disappointed me has been the defensive lapses. I expected runs would be at a premium, and the Nats caught a huge beak with the rainout. sale, kluber, kershaw, and grienke gave all been knocked around this postseason. 8 runs in 4 games is disappointing. it's hard for me to care too much about the rainout when we got the massive scherzer break to begin with. oh well, if we do end up losing, I guess it's easier to swallow this way instead of heartbreaking losses
  6. please ban the word ninny from nsb
  7. i hate how smoltz always starts sentences before he actually knows what he's going to say
  8. we have theo epstein and plenty of resources. i'm not going to worry about the bullpen.
  9. david is a creep on social media, it has been known
  10. looks like another season of the rest of the nhl being annoyed that the blackhawks are still very good
  11. i think len legitimately dislikes the cardinals, he seemed to really be into this game all night
  12. the way this season played out was way more fun than just cruising to another division title with 95-100 wins
  13. does that elias guy have any kind of online presence these days?
  14. i hope russell put a tarp over his pokemon. nothing worse than a soggy bulbasaur
  15. i almost want lackey to get crushed just to bring shame to people who want/wanted him to start a playoff game over lester
  16. i saw that earlier in the year against the cubs and i was confused. where does he usually sit?
  17. it kind of pisses me off that we're facing nicasio right now
  18. the bright side is that almora has clinched a 1.0 war season!
