Very very very early in game 2 still but the Dbacks seem to have something special about them

Insane game.

I like the Phillies again, riding Zac Wheeler. And I like the Dodgers, can't see them losing both at home. Bobby Miller outpitches Gallen.

I hope the Twins win the entire f*cking thing. Fun team to root for.

Royce Lewis is an absolute unit! He put on quite a bit of weight since he was drafted, but it appears to be good weight as he still has good agility and can run. He looks like Nelson Cruz playing 3b.

Give me Ari-Min WS and I'm happy.

Pitching is certainly there, hot royce lewis and correa guiding with experience. Feels like they got a lot of the ingredients!

Ari - Min means maximum unhappiness for Manfred. Big markets are dropping like flies. First round departure for LAD would be ideal.

Texas and Houston are both pretty big markets, and those were and are the two teams I expect to see in the ALDS. A Houston-Arizona World Series would be my ideal since I like both those teams. I like that Texas said to hell with a rebuild. We are going to get the pieces we need rather than wait 4 years to fill out a full roster with prospects, and I just like the Diamondbacks... always have.

Ehhh I think a lot of the dodgers are fun. Mookie and freeman specifically.

Couple years ago, I had to travel to the twin cities, and it was probably the coolest city I've been to. Looks like something from the future. Skyline was amazing with lots of purple lights. Very diverse.

Interesting, wouldnt have been a city I would have put on my list of possible coolest cities (ive never been). Now, you make me feel like i need to get out there and see!

I felt like I was in the future.

I’ve only been there passing through. Been in Duluth some, which I liked. One time it was 40 below.

I’m a big Max Fried guy. I think Atlanta bounces back.

And ill take Zac Gallen over Bobby Miller

Expand full comment

Not looking good early for me

Expand full comment

Fried looked very rusty. Not the same guy who was hot down the stretch. Travis d'Arnoud over Sean Murphy? That makes no sense at all. Atlanta paid for that stupidity. Snitker is going to have to mumble through some very hard questions in the post-game, I suspect. And people think Shelton is a bad manager? Baseball is filled with them, and Shelton is no worse than many.

This is why we’re just a couple of jags on the internet and snitker is filling out October lineups. The amount of information these guys have is a percentage point of what we know.

Arizona and Philly would both be really fun results and who i feel like is favored with pitching matchup and momentum. My track record thus far has been pretty bad though so

Expand full comment

Depends on how you feel about Fried after his long layoff. If you are OK with Fried (and I think I am) then I like Atlanta and Arizona today. Zac Gallen vs. a rookie? No brainer there, at least for me.
