2023 LDS Game/Discussion Thread

[JOBU]

Tragic

 

[LogansDad]

Good night, Orioles.

Good night, AL Least.

 

[Looch]

Not a good day for competitive ALDS games…

 

[strek1]

So I guess the AL east isn't as good as we thought.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Rosenthal just discussed it.

Thanks, all. What a disaster of a start for him, even worse than Gray's at MN earlier. I guess we'll have to endure a Rangers/Astros ALCS. Ughh.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Not that I overly root for the Orioles, but I hope they learn something from this and aren't just one and done

Yuck

You're going to regret this when they add Yamamoto and Nola.

 

[mauidano]

Rosenthal just talked about Kremer's Israeli ties

Albeit incredibly horrific, this won’t be an excuse for him. He just made bad pitches. If he remotely felt he had too much on his mind, he wouldn’t be out there.

Okay, now

For sport, I'm going to play the other side now:

Not over.

 

[pk1627]

Is anyone really surprised with Balt? They are a run machine. We knew their pitching wouldn’t fly in a short series.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

GOT HEEM!

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Taste it, Rutschman.

 

[mauidano]

A couple of early blowout games is no fun. The O’s look stunned. Six runs down is pretty tough to come back from.

Just think of the momentum they will have for Game 4 when they do, though!

If they do, I'll return the blackmail tape

 

[LogansDad]

That'd be nice. I'm getting tired of having that hanging over me.

 

[AB in DC]

JFC, seems like every time I go to turn on a playoff game, it's basically all over already. Even by the 2d inning.

 

[mauidano]

Nate is stepping on the gas.

 

[mauidano]

I miss Nasty Nate.

 

[mauidano]

Penelope Cruz is absolutely stunning.

 

[bosox188]

Nate is stepping on the gas their throats.

Fixed that for you.

I do hope the Rangers aren't forgotten when we get a bunch of offseason articles citing the Padres and Mets as arguments for billionaire owners not spending money.

 

[InsideTheParker]

I miss Nasty Nate.

I was disappointed the Sox didn't sign him.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Former Sox are all over this postseason. Kinda depressing.

 

[LogansDad]

Begin the comeback!

 

[E5 Yaz]

Penelope Cruz is absolutely stunning.

That poor woman, stuck on that plane forever

 

[staz]

DON'T SLEEP ON THE BIRDZ

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Nice slide

 

[staz]

Ump just nodding.

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

I miss Nate.

 

[Deweys New Stance]

WHY DIDN'T BLOOM MAKE NATE A COMPETITIVE OFFER?!?

 

[AMS25]

A couple of early blowout games is no fun.

This is true. The Rangers have been my second team all year, though, so I'm happy to see them do well.

 

[canderson]

So happy for Eovaldi.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

WHY DIDN'T BLOOM MAKE NATE A COMPETITIVE OFFER?!?

HE CHOSE KLUBER INSTEAD!!!!

 

[E5 Yaz]

HE CHOSE KLUBER INSTEAD!!!!

THEN MADE PATRICIA AND JUDGE THE PITCHING COACHES

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Nates are doing ok tonight.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Nate’s done. This needs to be his last batter.

 

[mauidano]

What a beast! That’s the kind of guy the Red Sox need. If only…

 

[LogansDad]

I am so glad Chaim got fired. (/ducks)

 

[strek1]

I was disappointed the Sox didn't sign him.

X 10

 

[The Gray Eagle]

Time to celebrate for Big Nate.

 

[LesterFan]

Playoff Evo

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

What a start. And what a turnaround. The difference between Nate’s September and his October is insane so far.

 

[VORP Speed]

I was hoping the O’s would lose 3 one run games in a row. That would have been fitting. I’ll take this, though.

 

[LogansDad]

Rooting for the Rangers against the Astros is going to cause serious long term damage to my soul.

 

[derekson]

Scherzer rejoining the Rangers would make them an interesting team in the ALCS.

 

[Brand Name]

Teams to win 100+ regular season games, make playoffs, and then win 0 playoff games. Pretty solid chance that 2023 is the first season ever it features two such teams, with the Orioles and Dodgers. Not including them on this list since neither is finalized yet.

-2019 Twins
-1980 Yankees
-1976 Phillies
-1971 Athletics
-1963 Yankees
-1954 Indians

 

[Bergs]

I am certainly rooting against B-more. But fuck Aroldis Chapman for sure.

It'd be a lot easier to root for them in the ALCS if they cut him from the roster.
