    This might be embarrassing in the DS but not in the WS with $55M in pitching sitting out. Bad luck screwed Houston.

    2-3-2 format is annoying, heavy rain and cold in Atlanta for 3 days, no batting practice for games 3 & 4, tons of pitching injuries, and batters all slumping at the same time. Game set match.

    We weren't beating Anderson in Game #7 anyhow. Would have been nice to see though!

    I've always loved the fight in this team. Game 5 was a prime example of that. But sometimes, no matter how much fight you have you still come up short. If they don't rally from this, sure it's disappointing. Would have loved to see another title or two from this run, but I'll still take 3 WS appearances, 5 straight ALCS, 1 title, and putting the hurt on the Yankees.

    Don't matter who's pitching, we have zero offense.

    They had Cole and Verlander and didn't do **** at home in 2019.

    Sure does matter. Your pitching gives you no shot in this game, whatsoever
