    They have fallen in love with the hero ball mentality. Just get hits, drive in runs, and let the HRs come organically. Smart at bats with the SP throwing a lot of pitches worked for us....don’t see why everyone wants to be a hero now.

    This is where the whole pessimist/optimist thing you keep going on about gets blown out of the water.
    During last nights game you and I were pretty much mirroring each others opinions on the game and the players and the management decisions.

    Its about negative and positive.
    Optomists make shit up so they dont have to deal with realities they cant cope with.
    Positives dont try to find a fake silver lining but study from the mistakes to learn how to do better next time when they know there is still a next time. And as long as there is life there is a next time. Dodgers have a few more lives to live... but they better start living em.

    I like the sentiment but Kenta threw 47 pitches last night so I doubt he gets in the game to do what should be done. I'm not feeling at all optimistic about tonight or the rest of the series because of how the Stros are a completely opposite team at home than on the road. We're doomed. :hide:

    I dont give a shit about the league and precedents or other incidents.
    I only care about Dodgers fans. They are mine.
    Dodgers fans you look like a bunch of little bitches and make the team look like little bitches.
    Let the league do what they must, but the fact that YOU my Dodger fans are out there bitching for them to do something makes you sound like the worst kind of bitches there is.

    daddy he made a face at me bwah bwah bwah call the police so he can get spanked like i get spanked when i make faces too because ITS NOT FAIR!!!!

    • “Everyone is available to pitch tomorrow, outside of Kenta,” Roberts said after his club’s 5-3 loss. “And Alex is going to have to go deep.”

    thats better than suspending him in the WS
    don't think its really deserving of a suspension at all tbh
    stupid joke, bad joke, he thought it was funny and it wasn't
    if he really hates asians does anyone think this will make him come correct?
    i always thought it was a good thing to hear people speak out in a racist manner
    then you know who they are
    btw everyone is racist and said or done far worse things
    sure some people want him castrated and burned

    i want him castrated and burned because mlb is hypocritical -- and because he's an astro lol
    his ignorance/stupidity is comical
    but the pc bullshit has gone too far
    everyone looking for an axe to grind when there are more pressing issues
    hope it affects his psyche
    but imagine what would have happened if puig did the same thing...
    people would be calling for his head

    Racism will always exist, but it's not necessarily a problem. Like, I don't think there is evidence of systemic racism in 2017 and Im tired of hearing about it. But blatant crap like that has no place at work and I'm glad he was punished. This isnt the golf course or a poker game.
    It wasn't even clever which is the most insulting thing, honestly.

    Bold prediction: Wood pitches a complete game.






    I kid. But I seriously hope McCarthy, Stripling and Fields aren't part of the plan. If they are, fuck Dave and the FO. Hill or Kershaw need to be in tonight's plan (or Darvish could be in the plan). Season is over in 4 days, there are no points for those guys being fresh.

    lets see if the whole thing tilts their team momentum and lights a fire under our ass
    that would be more than enough payback

    don't disagree
    but i seriously doubt dave uses hill, kersh or yu
    especially after his "i'm thinking three games down the line" remark during yesterday's postgame presser
    glad he's focused on games that will never be played
    hate to say it... but the season may essentially rely on wood [no homo]

    I could care less about the suspension in all honesty but the reasons he gave we’re fucking stupid and ridiculous

    It sounds crazy, but I gotta believe Wood can at the very least go five. In the end, it's on the offense. Turner, who's supposed to be a rockstar in the postseason, has two hits. TWO.

    Bellinger seems lost.

    Taylor has done okay but even then he can't do it all on his own.

    Offense needs to finally show up against their pitchers.

    fuck corey, put culberson in
    and is there a way to manipulate the injury/replacement option so segedin can play 1b?
    yeah, joking... but seager and bellinger are fucken killing us right now
    and ever since turner was lauded for being up there with gehrig/ruth he's turned to shit too
