MLB Playoff Thread

So it's pretty obvious the Giants are over matched by the Cubs. Yes they have Bumgarner going down 0-2 but I expect the Cubbies to light him up as towards the end of the season Bumgarner was getting lit up with regularity.

The Dodgers are up 1-0 on the road but with the rain out we'll have to see about game 2.

Who has some feedback on the AL matchups as most of this week I was off on a golf vaca.?

Welp the Giants extended the series despite Bumgarner pitching about how I figured in Game 3 but their bullpen failed again Game 4 as they have the entire 2nd half.

The Dodgers somehow manged to beat the Nats Game 4 but will need to beat Scherzer a 2nd time to advance against the Cubbies. The key is the Blue must swing the bats. I believe they're like 0 for 5 with the bases loaded in the post season. They could have swept this series with clutch hitting.

Dodgers just playing stupid baseball so far. Turner picked off second by the catcher.

Utley drops an out on a great play by Seager to make the kid Urias work much harder.

Toles can't complete a simple relay throw from the outfield to nail a guy out from me to Charlotte.

I despise incompetent baseball. Makes me think of Don Mattingly *shivers*.

Let's pull our heads out of our asses and swing the lumber boys, your only hope now down 4. Urias deserved much better.

    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO) 
    • looks like the Lions and Bangles should forget about the playoffs, trade everyone they can, and start over.
