Thank you Dodgers for Yordan, the gift that keeps on giving.

Hey PVā€¦.

Is Abreu still an albatross? :sunglasses:

Thatā€™s true- I get it. Unfortunately, Dusty will probably use his performance today as a reason to keep him on the bench for the rest of the playoffs.

On the positive side, Yordan is a frickinā€™ beast!

Of course he isā€¦ā€¦one game does not make a seasonā€¦.I hope he can stay in a grooveā€¦.because he was like 4-18 in his last five and can revert back in a heartbeat.

Just as Yainer had a horrible game with the bat , but does that mean Maldy is better? When the kid has had 2 ABā€™s in the last two weeks I thought he might have a game like this.

At this point in the season, do we really care who emerges as the hero? Just win!

While it hurts to say this, I mean REALLY HURTS :roll_eyes:, that 2021 Houston team was flawed and was lucky that we did not have to play the Rays in the playoffs that season, as they choked in the first round. The Braves were better than us by the end of the season, and most prognosticators picked them to beat us in 6, and they were right. We had terrible starting pitching, and our so called ā€œMurdererā€™s Rowā€ looked like the gang that couldnā€™t shoot straight in the playoffs especially Bregman, Correa and Altuve. Heck we had to use Greinke as a pinch hitter as he was a more dependable bat.

In 2022, we won because our pitching was absolutely stellar. Our hitters still left too many many on base for my mind, but Tucker came in to his own, and Pena played lights out on the offensive side.

Baseball really is a game of inches.

We need to finish this series up tomorrow. Rangers are about to close out Baltimore in a sweep. We donā€™t want to burn JV in a game 5.

For the first time this season it felt like the hitting coach had been coaching everyone. They were ready for Gray.

The Orioles are finding out that the regular season and the playoffs are two two different things.

I had hoped the Rangers series would go 5 games.

Iā€™m fine with them winning quick as long as we win tomorrow, but I donā€™t like seeing Eovaldi pitching a gem

Weā€™re signing Jason Castro on a 10 day contract if we win the DS.

You never go all the way the year of your debutante. This year was the Oā€™s introduction as a WS threat. You gotta pay your dues.

We usually hit Eovaldi well.

The Wast is by far the best division in baseball!

Thatā€™s what the media and ESPN tells me.
