Padres vs. Dodgers NLDS Thread

[derekson]

Yankees are still in it and Dodgers have a much better shot of beating them then the Padres or Phillies or Braves

That's an interesting view but hard to disagree with

 

[MuzzyField]

The Beat L.A. chant does warm the heart.

Or maybe that’s the whiskey.

Why not both!

 

[derekson]

Got him on a 93 MPH changeup.... wow

The Dodgers who lost to the Braves last year? And when last we saw the MFYs, they were losing to the Fighting Titos at The Toilet. I’m starting to agree with Jon Abbey; if they get past Cleveland, the Astros will take care of them (yes I know he’s just doing the reverse jinx thing.

 

[patinorange]

Hader pays off.

Gas Masterson

 

[Deweys New Stance]

YES!!!!!!!

 

[Ale Xander]

First time I’m seeing San Diegoans care about anything

 

[teddywingman]

Great game!

Cleveland and Houston can take care of knocking them out.

Given the way the MFY's have been playing for months, they can take themselves out by keeping on keeping on!

HE GONE

They love fish tacos. With good reason.

I think Houston has a great shot to beat them. MFY are vulnerable. The pen isn't what it was earlier in the year. And they still leave a lot of guys on base.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Still scoreless against the Padres pen.... I mean what. Hader looks rejuvenated.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

The ALCS is going to be the World Series.

Trent Grisham with the “let’s fucking go, San Diego” for the crowd and for national television.

I'm absolutely not, the current Yankees are not a threat to win the WS. Their lineup behind Judge sucks, their bullpen is very up in the air, and they are worse than the other top teams at best utilizing the personnel they do have.

Canadian Sportsnet Central host definitely took offense. "Way to keep it classy San Diego."

 

[Deweys New Stance]

Gotta admit I didn’t have a ton of confidence in Hader there, but he was dealing.

I don't know about that. These west coast bullpens look tough.

 

[E5 Yaz]

We are now at a key moment in the NLDS ... are the Padres or Phillies more likely to finish the job?

 

[Ale Xander]

0-17 with RISP last 2 games after leading the MLB in regular season

1 run losses in 5 game series are painful

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Padres have the arms. Can they pull this off?

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

I don’t like the Padres chances if there is a Game 5 and it’s a fully rested Urias vs Clevinger or an opener. Game 4 feels like a bigger game for SD than Philly.

This is obviously a silly statement. It's baseball, nothing is preordained until the final out is made.

100 percent! As we have already seen these layoffs. You don’t play on paper. It ain’t over until it’s over. Ask Yordan Alvarez.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Musgrove on the mound at home to send LA home. Couldn’t draw up a better scenario for Padres fans. Seize the moment, San Diego.

It does feel like a great opportunity for them. Stud pitcher at home to close it out.
And there is no way in hell they want this to go 5.

Correct. Who had Atlanta beating Houston last year? Or Washington beating Houston in 2019?

And, surf's up!

Turner has a grade 2 finger sprain but is in the lineup.

Bellinger is on the bench and is not happy about it.

[brandonchristensen]

OK - let's get out of this Please.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Man, terrible inning by Musgrove.

 

[brandonchristensen]

This has to be his last batter. He's totally lost it.

(EDIT)
okay, he can go more.

 

[mauidano]

A bunch of us coming over from the Guardians and MFY’s thread…did we miss anything?

 

[mauidano]

I can’t wait for the shift to be over.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Can the pads just win this please, thanks.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Legit stunned Musgrove made it to the 6th. The 3rd (I believe) he looked terrible.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Risky business keeping him in.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Gutty performance by Musgrove. Now score some damn runs

 

[brandonchristensen]

Man. What a gutty performance. Awesome job.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Musgrove was cooked. He really did fight through that inning. Also, Taylor knows you gotta spoil that pitch.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Man. Soto is snakebitten.

 

[LogansDad]

Man, Soto is soooooo close to breaking out.

 

[brandonchristensen]

Watching the Mariners for 6 hours makes me feel like scoring is impossible - so a 2-run lead FEELS insurmountable.

But...the Padres have some bats. I wish Tatis Jr wasn't such a punk.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Machado really is a damn good player

 

[LogansDad]

Machado really is a damn good player

He's like Schroedinger's player to me. I can't enjoy watching him play, but I also can't NOT enjoy watching him play.
