Around Baseball 2024 edition

It's like the playoffs are a crapshoot and no real strategy to be successful. Whatever happens in a given playoffs is the new narrative.

But the baseball gods are real. And if the Phillies go down in the same fashion the Braves did the last two years, it'll be because of all that **** they talked.

The great thing about this series is it's gonna be hilarious when either of these teams fails.

 

[CyYoung31]

The Phillies will fail now. The Mets will fail later. I’ll take that trade off.

 

[bravesnumberone]

The Braves simply just don't show this emotion.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Lol

Looks like Carlos Mendoza went to the Brian Snitker School of Bullpen Mismanagement. I don't know if he had anyone warming up in the bottom of the 6th, but the minute Turner got on, they should have had someone ready to face Harper. Maybe it makes a difference and maybe it doesn't, but Mendoza must have been just looking at the pitch count.

I've never seen a hitter get so many mistake pitches to him than Castellanos..

Not only that. He looked really bad on the previous couple of pitches and somehow re-centers.

And it happens every time they need a big hit.

I see that Jack Flaherty is still a douchebag.

Fans keep getting worse and worse.

I have always held out hope that baseball would somehow remain the most dignified of professional sports, but after watching the Dodgers/Padres last night I now see that it has also devolved into MMA. I'm surprised that Tatis, Jr., doesn't do a Heisman pose after doing just about anything.

I didn't appreciate how animated he is out there. Makes Acuna look pretty docile at times.

Weird baseballs hit with same exit velocity and same angel seem to be going out now. Especially in that dodgers series. Weird.

 

[Heyward]

Skubal is disgusting, just pumping in fastballs and they cant do nothing about it.

Future Hall of Famer Jon Berti starting at first base for the Yankees tonight!

Phillies dealing with the 5 day layoff pretty well I see

 

[bravesfanMatt]

And if the Faiies do fail they can’t really complain about the layoff. They just have to grin and except defeat.
