    It looked initially like he started to slide and then balked. So I think that’s how the call was missed, they threw the flag thinking there was a slide at first.

    It’s a change of possession and I’ve never seen them call it that way, often they finish it in case the whistle was never blown.

    I was sitting there saying “hang onto the ball, Savion… hang onto the ball!” And then he did not hang onto the ball.

    It’s not us so much. It’s more that the Dodgers are distancing themselves further and further from the NL field. They were never in any trouble in the NLCS. I don’t see us closing the gap without some structural changes.

    It’s so obvious how much it just sticks in your craw every time someone brings up that your Cubs couldn’t get it done against the Brewers.
  6. adambr2
    Judging by our performance in the NLCS, we’re not as close as we thought we were and we need those structural changes first.

    I don’t know what your source is on this, but there is absolutely no way that runner on 3rd/1 out has a more than double probability of scoring at least one run versus man on 2nd/0 outs. There’s no way that math is close.

    Kirk being on deck was huge. It was like they were winningly walking right into a trap.

    The Blue Jays had 3 outs left in their entire season. And Schneider donated 1/3rd of them.

    I can’t think of one single time recently where everything worked exactly in sequence to succeed - the bunt was laid down and advanced the runner, then the contact with a man on 3rd and 1 out scored a run. It never worked out. Something always went wrong.

    A 14 game win streak, an emotional NLDS win, a 6-0 record against the eventual WS champs, all for the freaking Dodgers to repeat. What a dumb game and league.

    I think your act is old and the Cubs would have had no shot.

    LOL at a professional manager giving away an out with the game on the line and putting his entire season in the hands of a sac bunt. You deserve what you get.

    Of course it’s a Will Smith, who is on a World Series winner every year.

    I dunno if we would have, but I’m pretty convinced we win Game 1 if Brice wears one.

    Good to see that you’re at least being honest about your fandom now and no longer pretending.

    “Springer, you idiot, why would you swing at that?” - Me, who would probably need to start my swing before the ball even left Yamamoto’s hand, from my couch

    This series is making me sad that we didn’t put up even a smidgen of a fight. This is like a back and forth, 10 round heavyweight fight. The NLCS was more like a 94 second prime Mike Tyson versus some local journeyman fight.

    As someone who hasn’t the slightest idea of how NBA contracts are supposed to work I am happy to know we just signed him to a cheap 3 year deal.

    Is this supporting cast just a lot better than we figured on? Mostly everyone contributed. We all pretty much agreed Cole Anthony was a hell of a minimum signing. Ryan Rollins looks really legit.
  21. adambr2
    There was only one issue. It was the hitting. That was the problem. Not half of it.
  22. adambr2
    It is a lot more impressive than scoring 4 total runs in 4 games. We allowed 3.75 runs per game in the NLCS — the Jays are currently averaging 3.6 runs allowed per game. The fact that we got soundly swept while the Jays are up 3-2 has nothing to do with the insignificant difference between those numbers and everything to do with the fact that the Blue Jays are hitting and we did not.
  23. adambr2
    I struggle to understand why people lump our pitching in with our hitting as to why we lost the NLCS. Our pitching wasn’t perfect, it could have been better against a really elite lineup, but you can win an NLCS with the pitching we had. They kept us in every single game. Some guys had great individual performances and others did not. Our hitting problems were a significantly greater contributor to losing this series. We did not just hit badly, it was historically badly. The performances were woeful across the board except for maybe 1-2 guys. You hate to just pin it on one group but when you literally needed to pitch 4 shutouts to win the series, the hitting really was the full stop reason for our unsightly exit.

    Yeah, it’s really disappointing. Nitpicking on Murphy here, because he’s obviously a good manager, but I could have done without the whole “us average Joes against Goliath” mentality. It’s not productive to say that the Dodgers probably barely know anyone on our roster. Did we just miracle our way to 97 wins? The Dodgers are obviously superbly talented but not infallible. Learn from it and be ready to play next year. It was obviously still a far better outcome than losing to the Cubs.
  25. adambr2
    It’s definitely probably not accurate for us to assume that we would have beaten the Jays, which I think many fans were.
