That's excessive. (I have never even seen a bag of dicks).

I would rather just focus on this game. There is no reason we can't beat their a$$es tonight.

We are at HOME, we didn't just "slip" into the playoffs.

(Freddy just struck out Ohtani again).

Look on the bright side.  15 years means you wouldn't have to watch this offense.

Dodgers #9 hitter - 27 home runs in the regular season

Brewers 5-9 hitters - 37 home runs in the regular season

Baseball is my favorite sport but it’s broken

Freddy Peralta has been solid against the best team money can buy!

Maybe mature rather than good should be the goal 

I like this forum because it usually doesn't allow much vulgarity.  Too many internet sports forums are filled with extremely foul language.

I love Woody, but his inability to to stay healthy for the post season hurts as much or more than Yeli's poor performance

 

Unless Woodruff is pitching like 3 times in a series and going 9 shutout innings, it really doesn't,

In the regular season, this would be great from Freddy. 5IP 2ER is a great start in mid-July.

In the NLCS, really not what we needed. Way too many pitches when what we needed was length. Not a bad job, but not good either imo

When the payroll is almost 3x that of the Brewers, it makes it hard to feel like you can compete. I mean, their first three batters are former league MVPs. There is no such thing as a level playing field in the MLB.

So please tell us all ..... how did we beat them ALL SIX GAMES this season !!

Dodgers were 22-5 the last 27 games of the year and crushed the Phillies 

They are a completely different team now than in July 

They still had some of the same major pieces that they have now. It’s not like they were fielding an AAA team in July.

In any event, I’m just saying the team needs to have some faith, some confidence that they can make this a series. We can’t just throw up our hands and say they’re too good.

Yelich being an auto out is absolutely killing them.

May as well give up 10 runs if we aren't going to score.

Baseball rule change proposal

Make all foul balls half-strikes.

There are no foul ball fly outs; they are simply half-strikes.

3 strikes and you're out DOES NOT change.

3 1/2 strikes?  You're out!

Yeah not gonna have some random guy on a message board tell me how to act.  Thanks for trying though.  

[CheezWizHed]

Ohatani is 1 for 23 in the playoffs...

You’re fired up tonight!

[kevinisaname]

Is that the first 3-ball count we've had? It feels like it.

It's like Banana Ball but way, way worse.

Thought he got it. Damn.

[CheezWizHed]

So close wih Bauers!

Injuries. 100%
The Dodgers were actually healthy in September and steamrolled their way into the playoffs. If this lineup and rotation were healthy all year long, this team could have easily had 110 wins.

The rotation is completely different. Ohtani wasn’t pitching then, Snell wasn’t pitching and Glasnow was just coming back from injury

TBS camera guy thought he did too but he gets distracted by butterflies, so it doesn't really mean much.

Its not like they are turtling in any obvious way.  They just arent as talented and the rest of MLB can say the same thing. They are down 1 run - about to turn the lineup over for the third time. I wish Yamamoto had 30 more pitches though.  

Bauers just missed...
