    This is why road teams have faired so well in the WS, or some of the reasons. To me, it’s not an advantage if all else being equal, you’re “supposed” to come home for Game 6 down 3-2. How is that an advantage?

    If Pressly was going to be used unconventionally, he should have came in for Raley.

    If this team can't hit in the WS, can't imagine next year without Correa.

    You're not giving the Braves pitchers enough credit.

    Our hitters just can’t get it done. Look how the braves hitters approach their at bats vs ours. Whole different mindset.

    Losing this game and Pressly for tomorrow would be really cool.

    Series is over. No way we're scoring 5 more runs tonight!

    It’s not like Corea is doing anything this World Series or the playoffs in general

    Dusty and Roberts are the dumbest managers.

    He's obviously thrown too many pitches at this point, he's only getting worse.

    Bregman is going to make about the same as Correa next year. I doubt Soft Tissue Bregman is going to be worthy of his salary. That will be three years on a row.

    Outside of Matzek, Minter, and Will Smith, their BP is freaking trash. They were throwing meatball after meatball out there and our bats were sleep walking through their ABs. Infuriating effort.

    Astros Bullpen overachieved this postseason.

    Starting Pitchers Underachieved and Underperformed

    The Rays were supposed to be in the World Series not the Astros.

    Braves half-innings: 30 minutes
    Astros half-innings: 3 minutes

    Let’s see how quickly they go down in the top half (if this bottom half ever ****ing ends)
