That was nuts, what a play. I love both Ohtani and Mookie but it would be kind of fun to see the Dodgers lose the division en route to another early exit.
Knowing you, I am 99% sure this comment is tongue-in-cheek, but in case it's not they did it last year.
What they did not do last year is have a positive run differential against every AL East team. (They tied with Tampa Bay 48 RS, 48 RA.) Unless the next two games against NYY go real bad, they will do that this year.
I found it very telling that the players who weren't available for a couple of months...all chipped in tonight. Westy, Mounty, Kjerstad, Urias...and we got awakened bats from Cowser and O'Hearn. It's just one game but we got a win in NY on a night we clinched and we looked like we did in May. Confident, scoring runs, and pitching pretty well. Now we get Burnes, and Eflin in the next two and if we can win a couple more games we will have all the home games in the wildcard. You never know, crazier things have happened.I still think we are deeply flawed , but I like us with good starting pitching at home, and a new lineup.
That seems right from my few impressions, but I was joking more in the general sense.
Tanner Scott, closing in on big riches, just won his first matchup with him. TBS broadcast had the detail Scott leads MLB in Games Pitched since the deadline, as one might expect with a rented ace.
Ohtani and the Dodgers finding AJ Preller's pitchers a little tougher than Vidal Brujan and miscellaneous other Marlins and Rockies.
