Lololol also just realized the deleted post lololol this place is becoming Australia lolololol let people talk obscenities and disrespect family members but don’t upset the libbies lolololol

 

[Jaw]

To reiterate what Cy is saying.

Yeah the results don't show it but he looked like he was pitching pretty well to me.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Snit confirms a bullpen game tomorrow.

 

[CyYoung31]

The Dodgers had 4 ****ing hits before that 8th inning BABIP-fest.

 

[Hudson2]

We caught breaks the first 2 games and they did this game. We knew we weren’t gonna sweep. Just suck it up and try to win 1 of these next 2.

 

[CyYoung31]

Brutal in the moment. More broadly playing devils advocate:

-A one run game where we basically have no opportunities, they strand runners all over, we get an infield single in the 9th and win it
-A game where we fall behind by two twice, get out of several jams, come back in bottom of the 8th and win it after a lead-off bloop on a broken bat

Exactly. LA probably should have split in ATL. And we should have won this game. That still puts the series at 2-1 Braves.

 

[UNCBlue012]

The bigger issue isn't a loss, it's how they lost. Momentum is gone.

 

[Jaw]

They will be just fine. They’ve got all the momentum and adrenaline.

So did Atlanta after two walkoff wins. I would still rather be the Braves than the Dodgers right now. Especially with the wear their bullpen has taken.

Hopefully i am wrong but once they kick our ass tomorrow our bullpen is going to **** their pants for the rest of the series.

Momentum doesn’t exist in baseball.

 

[UNCBlue012]

Momentum doesn’t exist in baseball.

Momentum absolutely does.

 

[CyYoung31]

Momentum absolutely does.

So, if the Braves come out tomorrow and win a bullpen game, then what happened to the Dodgers momentum? It decide to take a vacation?

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Assuming it’s Urias tomorrow, I still wonder a bit about how he’ll be. He’s been used quite a bit lately and he wasn’t effective Sunday

The Dodgers won’t lose a bullpen game from us…and you deep down know that.

Wow. I shouldn’t be surprised you completely missed the point, but somehow I am.

Remember game 3 last year NLCS giving up 11 runs in the first. People said the Dodgers had all the momentum after that. They literally got shut down by Bryse Wilson in game 4 lol. Momentum does not exist, confirmed.

 

[bravesnumberone]

I’d like to see Minter in the first.

 

[The Tariff King]

The upside is yes today they used a lot of bullpen guys.

if Urias is ineffective tomorrow we can go into their bullpen some more and have Max pitch on full rest as well.

The Dodgers are playing at home in front of a raucous crowd. I’d liken this more to Game 5 from last year.

Exactly, the point. lf it had been nip/tuck that would be one thing but blowing a lead like that usually leads to a few bad games in a row. Can't afford that now. It was a repeat of Leyritz 25 years ago.
