Good write up. This just highlights the need to play Chas/Yordan over Brantley this series.

Prices for consessions are ridiculous too
Had a buddy that went to game six Friday night, first level club seats. $700, $400 drinks, $$40 food, 260 Uber (25 there) 240 back, 200 baby sitter

That's his point, $400 for drinks that night probably wasn't very many

I know - I was joking.

I think beer jumped up to like $15-16 in 19 but can't remember exactly. A double was like $40 bucks.

Guessing surface lots for parking will be 80-100 like '17?

$40 for a double
Every time he went to the bar 5 times in the game he dropped $80

To me parking is the worst thing. It's insanely high for any World Series game.

The typical 15 or $20 lots are close to $100

Joey Gallo the DH. 14 games, 60 PA, 11 BB, 25 K in 48 AB, 2 HR and 2 RBI, slashed .188/.359/.398. His OPS+relative to all other DH was 102. His time at DH relative to himself was 86.

I'm not sure you could find a more hilarious candidate if you tried.

The Preston Street garage across from the courthouse was $60 for game 1 ALCS. Surface lots in that area were $60-70. I would bet $100 easy.

Park at Kim Son on Jefferson.
Get a little bit of food.
Put parking voucher receipt in vehicle.
Walk to MMP

If you are willing to wait till 6pm to park, you can grab easy free street parking up to a block away from MM. (this only works on weekdays)

Braves ended the season red hot. They are on a hell of a run


That's why I'm nervous. We were a juggernaut in 2019 and ran into a hot team (who sucked before their run and who has sucked after it). We're the better team again IMO, but could easily see the Braves winning this. #BAS

I want more than anything to shut everyone up about 2017.

I remember going to one of the specialty bars setup special for the WS in 17. Yep, you couldn't buy a round for 2 under $100 it seemed.

https://www.mlb.com/news/silver-slugger-award-finalists-2021

We have 5 Silver Slugger Finalist.

1st - Yuli (won't win, Vlad will)
2nd - Tuve (won't win, Semien will)
SS - Correa (should win)
OF - Tucker (should win, but won't because he's the most disrespected player in baseball)
DH - Alvarez (won't win, Ohtani will)

Tucker and Correa have a shot. Don't think any of the others do unless they were to list Yordan as a LF which they didn't

I agree, but the Nationals were actually a better team that season. They got off to a terrible start but from June on (or so) tied the Astros for best record in the majors. Atlanta is hot and anything can happen, but I don't think they are as good as that. Unfortunately the Astros may not be as good as the 2019 version either.

Uber back from game 2 of the Division series cost me 180, talk about sticker shock. 30 bucks to get to the game. I expected the up charge but not that.

Better off to arrange an actual car service or park a little further out. Le Meridian parking was like 10 bucks overnight

I spent 90 on food and drink at the AlCS in the club level(6 mich ultra drafts, chicken tenders and a pint of blue bell cookies and cream(to slow the drinking pace))

Dang! $180 for an Uber is bonkers. Could you jump on the light rail and get an Uber further from the stadium?
