Overall, it was a good post season for the Dodgers given that Kershaw, Muncy, and Justin Turner were out!

Shout out to the Giants too, Giants and the Dodgers outplayed everyone this season.

I will say that I was very displeased with Albert Pujols. I like him as a person and a player but was fascinated at how little he contributed. He used to be a gnarly slugger but during the post season it was a surprise if he didn't strike out.

Later LA…. Maybe next year will be another 60 game season and your pitchers will come through.

Scherzer claiming he bleeds “dodger blue” bailing when the team needed him most… 35 mil to say he’s “tired”.  He will be a yankee next year anyways.

Respect due, Mookie Betts is the best player in baseball. 

Not sure who to root for in WS… I don’t love the Astros but I would love to see Dusty get a ring.

Well congrats to Atlanta much deserved. Hell of a team… really annoying all the talking heads here kept “wanting” the braves even though they were the hottest team in baseball the 2nd half.

And y’all got Bell. More production at 1b…. Baseball is crazy sometimes. NL pennant race gonna be fun.


I wanted a trade for Bell for a minute. Mancini is a nice consolation tho…

Blake Snell. Almost got Scherzer too. Gotta give kudos. Going all in. That’s a trade you make 10/10 times. I can’t stand that shuffle thing he does, but kid is a stud…

Give Dodgers ALL the hell

RIP Vin Scully btw. Legendary radio voice.

Dodgers almost blew it last night.
I don’t know baseball that much but they should’ve wrapped it up with Gaterol. He was doing better than the last dudes.
Nothing I do deserves more than an iphone camera.

Anxious to get out to some Yanks games this year. Always bleacher seats for me in the last row so I have the wall for my back. Hopefully this summer won't be as brutal as the last. Yanks looked solid this past series vs the Phillies.

Gonna see the Padres at least twice this year with my parents and my work and may go a few other times with my best friend. Very excited for this season.

Watching HSK knock out his first walk off HR win the other day was so fucking awesome. Love that man

Championship hangover i guess cause them boys are looking rough… picking up Jose Abreu loving that move tho.

I put a few bucks on Padres winning the NL pennant and the Mariners for the AL as much as that pains me to type that…

Padres lineup at full strength is just insane and the Ms front end rotation and young/scrappy bats.   


Ms are 2-5 damn lol rays are 6-0. They’re always in the fold what the hell..

Also the A's are shamelessly trying to reenact the plot to Major League right now and its depressing to see. I try my best to keep up with the team casually and I don't know who is on our roster right now besides Kemp and Laureano. A's doing A's things.

Moneyball playing on tv today, the timing peculiar. Love that film. Just looked at A’s tickets. Section 117 behind home plate $90. Fairly cheap as they should be , probably should be cheaper. Y’all really think they move to Vegas one day?

When the A's had a really exciting team a few years ago the tickets were much cheaper than they are now. It's pretty funny to see an owner that hates the team he owns so much and in such a shameless fashion. They are Vegas bound, it's undeniable at this point.

MN Twins looking really good so far! We'll hit the skids mid season and lose to the yankees in straight sets in the first round of the playoffs though. . .

Curious - do you/fans like the TC hat or prefer the Kirby Puckett era M hat?

I'm a Marlins fan and watched the entire series between MN and MIA a week ago. Those 'M' hats are God awful. The OG ones are so much better. MN's new unis are super clean besides that hat.

Oh shit, didn’t even realize they had a new hat.  Yeah those are def designed by whomever made the Miami Marlins hat.   I was talking the OG M ones with the underlining. 


Speaking of, I loved those Florida Marlins hats with the F and the marlin.
