    You guys are a bunch of pu$$ies crying about the Phillies. We manhandled them before the regular season ended.
    If we're gonna be the best, we gotta act like it.

    Exactly. Many are worried about playing hot team, but there is nothing hotter than Astros pitching.

    Are the Padres pitchers really THIS bad?
    Phils are teeing off like it's batting practice

    I'm rooting for the Phils the whole way... but now that they're up 3-1 I wouldn't mind the Pads winning game #5 to prolong the series a bit

    I don't care who wins. I just want it to go 7.

    If both series end tomorrow will the world series date be pushed up?

    No. The dates are set in stone. It will start whenever it is scheduled to start, and that is that.

    I went ahead and ignored his "real talk" after he passed the threshold of acceptable stupid s**t.

    You mean when Freid and Morton shut down the Astros?

    I took a different approach. I think of his fear of NLE teams like Yankees fans chanting we want HOUSTON. I find HUMOR in it. And to be fair, probably like some people treat my complaints about Dusty.

    What about them? Charlie Morton would be regulated to Urquidy's role on this team. We have Javier as our 4th starter.

    And

    I haven’t watched much of the NLCS but it’s astounding how different it is. You would think they having Judge, Yordan, Rizzo, Bregman, Stanton, Altuve and others in the ALCS you would see balls flying out of the park but it’s been pitchers duels.

    I would still prefer the Padres out of superstition but great pitching generally beats great hitting so I like our chances against either team.

    The Phillies are not a cinderella story. They have the 4th highest payroll this year and the 2nd highest next year. They are not even underdogs.
