Just realized we're the only team with a bye that one. That's a lot of aces losing to #3s. Best case for us if all 3 top seeds lose. It locks in home field throughout & lowers the competition slightly. Now we just take care of business.

Now they're crying about dodgers having to face a divisional opponent in the NLDS?

You mean the divisional opponent where they play fewer games against because of the new play every team rules? LOL. Costas is a chode.

Might have to start a new segment called Good Abreu, Bad Abreu:

Good Abreu:
Gets an RBI knock and forces a play at 3rd rather than home that rewatching I think might have nailed Yordan at home (which was obviously a big run).

Bad Abreu:
TOOTBLAN by not hustling to second

Overall though he goes 1-3 with an RBI and a walk so he was mostly good but I still don't think he's got the power to warrant that #5 slot and if he didn't hustle into second because his back is still bothering him he needs to sit and let Diaz take 1st.

Just watch tonight if he's still 5th, which I'll be shocked if he isn't, with Donkey putting Yordan at clean-up rather than 3rd I bet they pitch around him all game and if Abreu doesn't make them pay it could be a long night. I'd much rather let Tucker make them pay in the clean-up spot. Dana, this is where you need that final say.

Tonight would be a great night for Lineup of Death but we all know that will never happen and our best hitting catcher will once again be sitting on the bench, contributing as much as his manager.

I'm not in any way feeling sorry for the slapdick Dodgers but they have 10 pitchers on the 60 day IL. That's insane.

They are gutted on the mound.

Just bad. Especially from a veteran

On not sliding into second, I think his leg was bothering him from fouling the ball off himself, and I think he thought he was going to make it easy. It turned out to be a massive brain fart.

Then Dusty should punish him by batting him 7th or playing Diaz at 1st.

Remember last year when everyone but us was crying that the off week was bad for teams that earned a bye. Seems like all the home teams lost G1 of division series last year except us as well.

Just scored tickets for tonight's game section 130 for $85 each. LFG!!

Don't we still lose it to Philly?

I believe it would still be us due to Division > Wild Card still takes effect

But I'm not entirely sure

And only us and Yankees made it out of the division series last year

I think the Dodgers will end up pulling out the series.

I think that game 1 in Atlanta was crucial. Letting the Phillies stay hot makes it feel like a repeat of last year's NLDS.

To me the bye week really hurt the Orioles. Young team, playing hot, first postseason experience and then you get a week layoff. Might be a recipe for disaster in Baltimore

World Series is based on record so the only team the Astros would have home field against is the Diamondbacks.

Also a pretty good deke by CC to make him believe he easily had the bag. Still it is the postseason, don't assume anything.

That version of Yordan got his ass whipped. And hopefully that dude in the old pinstripes spent the night in jail.

That version of Yordan got suckered punched. The fat pin-stripe thug needs to spend the weekend in jail, and catch a ban from MMP. His only saving grace may be that he's too weak to cause injury, or he'd be looking at battery charges also. What a POS.

I don't blame folks for not intervening in such fights although instead of pulling out your phone to record, maybe find an usher who could notify security.

Knowing today's society, if you intervene somebody else filming can edit video and will make it seem like you were the one in the wrong

Absolutely ZERO chance I'd intervene with these fools unless they were somehow causing me or the people I am with harm. However, the last thing I would be doing in that situation is pulling my phone out to record.

I don't know man. To get hit repeatedly and still restrain the other guy took quite a bit of strength. My guess is he would have been a much better fighter and didn't want to injure the aggressor. Who knows tho.

I saw a dude that can take punches and still have the power to restrain a dumb a$$ and also took the fight away from his girl. Also probably didn't want to get thrown out after paying $$$$ to see a playoff game. Dude got sucker punched while sitting down. Hope the other guy is in jail right now.
