    Neris, Montero and Maton could be huge for the bullpen this year.

    We hope, lots of good stuff between them

    Ho hum, 3 out of 4 despite treating this series like extended Spring Training.

    Haha, they got a fluke win against Verlander when we could get a hit.

    I guess losing 75% of the games means you're close?

    "That particular team" = 1 out of 4 games starting our regular lineup

    2 starts were made by our projected 5th and 6th best starters, Yuli missed 3 games, we gave players days off.

    We did everything we could to give them a chance to win this series. You ain't gonna get much done in baseball with like 3.5 good hitters, I don't care how good they are.

    If he really is then he (and Ohtani for that matter) should demand a trade.

    This isn't basketball (specifically Harden), there is still some class and loyalty left in this sport.

    He loves Anaheim and is a low-key, low-publicity guy, wants no part of a major media market. It's kind of unfortunate that he's the best player in the game and rarely gets showcased on a national stage.

    Agreed speed isn’t paramount. But if it’s close (and I believe it is) then speed is a tie breaker. I wouldn’t hate Bregman 1st and Altuve 3rd but it’s not like either way is way better than the others. It’s a coin flip type proposition.
