I'm not one to declare games over after an inning and a half, but with the matchup tomorrow being Julio Urias/Kremer, we're potentially looking at 1-5 on the season against the Braves/Dodgers. There is absolutely no one we could acquire that would turn that into 4-2 by October. An October that will be the first for almost literally every single player on this team while the Dodgers/Braves are there every single year without fail. Levels...

The Braves and Dodgers are not on the same level. One is the best in the sport by a good distance this year. The other is in a nice tier under that.

[Moshagge3]

What an at bat from O'Hearn!

[Moose Milligan]

Mountcastle would never. 

[Dunk35]

If Hays GDP here im gonna be pissed. O'Hearn EARNED that walk

[Billy F-Face3]

What was that about the Dodgers needing a shortstop? Rojas just took charge of the pitcher like he was the team captain.

Brad Brach mentioned Orel Hershiser. I like Orel Hershiser.

I mean, you're putting in the World Series in this scenario, so that's pretty good?

The Dodgers have won 100 games in four of the past five full seasons and have been in the WS three times in the past six years. They're on that level until they're not. And we're not on that level until we are.

Watch what you say about Mountcastle.  Can of Corn wont like it.  Be on your toes.

Haha I'm just taking the whole "all in" argument to its logical conclusions in terms of what we would have to do in the WS. But Houston is almost as daunting of a task, and that doesn't even include Tampa.

[Billy F-Face3]

Wahoo!  Get you some Hicks!

fly out on ball 4, 6 days off for Hays didnt work
