    New Slogan for baseball next year should be:

    "MLB... Making it up as we go!"

    Not so fast. The Dodgers lineup has been struggling and the Braves have some stud pitchers. Max Fried and Uncle Charlie can carry that team. Braves have enough pop in that lineup to win games too.

    I don't know enough about the braves to make an accurate assessment.
    My gut tells me the dodgers are going to either sweep or win in 5 though.
    They are freaking stacked in every way.

    Braves are legit and well built for the post-season with Morton and Fried pitching well. They are doing all of this without their best player, Ronald Acuna. Impressive.

    Woke up and saw the score. Typical Dodgers. Braves don't stand a chance in the NLCS. That has 4-1 Dodgers written all over it.

    Oh well, time to focus on beating the Red Cocks.

    That's great and all but they will be quickly discarded like a cheap hooker.

    Hmmm...quality take. But I think I hate the Dodgers more than the Warriors. Idk it's really, really close.

    True they might win a game. If Jesus intervenes they might win 2.

    Yeah, yeah it's baseball, whatever. I'm usually the one preaching that, but the Braves have absolutely no chance in making it out of the series with the Dodgers.

    The Dodgers are a much much better team, but unless by no chance you mean ~25-30%, I’d have to disagree.

    The chances that the Giants would win 106 games were lower than the Braves winning this series and that happened.

    I stayed up late to watch the end of the game even though I had to wake up at 5am.
    I just wanted to see the dodgers lose.
    If the warriors were playing a team other than the rockets there is no way I would have watched.
    The hate is strong.

    That's the best kind of upset.
