2025 POSTSEASON Thread

Better score some runs. We might need them. Haha

 

put 5 runs up and make it 15-5 and all is forgiven

 

Dodger Stadium has turned into a fucking morgue...they have seen the face of death lurking.
And it is in the bullpen.

 

Is that Blake Trienen coming in?

I'm anxious AF.

 

Yeah...right you are. It's much more than just this game...

 

they aren't going to swing at all against Blake unless its right over the plate

 

Yamamoto goes complete game!

 

Dean, why??

 

He was shaky at first but the other batters saw that warlock shit he throws.

Keep it up, Blake.

 

Cannot blame Dave whatsoever
The players and Andrew Friedman own the shitty ass bullpen
WTF is he supposed to do?
He put our best guy, Vesia, in and he shit the bed
The BP completely sucked all the joy our from the victory
I do not see any path to a WS win with this bullpen

 

i was thinking scott or Wrobo too
guys need to be ready to go but especially Vesia just looked totally unprepared for that moment

 

Damn shame the bullpen shitting the bed has a way of overshadowing a great performance otherwise.

Let's look at the good. They hammered one of the best young arms in the game. Teo gets the headline with the 3 run bomb, but the two patient walks (Freddie and Max) were just as important. Sho's leadoff HR let the Reds and Greene know the Dodgers weren't to be fucked with. Got contributions 1-9 in the lineup and added on late in the game.

More good.........Snell. Master class in pitching, emphasis on pitching. Don't need 100 mph to get outs (and Ks).

Henriquez might have pitched himself off the roster for the next series (if they make it). Totally clueless. Had that Tanner Scott "what the fuck am I doing out here" look on his face.

Treinen didn't exactly instill confidence, throwing the first pitch to the backstop and going 3-1 to the #9 hitter. But he settled down and had a good inning, no harm, no foul bloop single aside. Dean didn't exactly have the look of a defensive replacement there.

Thinking the postseason recipe will have to be getting 7 strong from the starters, score a shit load of runs and hold on to your ass as the bullpen attempts to get the final six outs.

 

I didn't see it as that big an affront. Not a Matt Barnes fan at all. There's a reason he played for every team in the NBA.

Well handled by Strawberry, though.

 

A similar thing happened to the Yankees yesterday.
Spectacular performance by Fried, even better than Snall's ( which was hard to do ), and when the bp came in, the game deteriorated into a loss.
I guess if this is any indication, the O is gonna have to score 10 a night.

 

Agree. Without 10 runs per game, every game ... this bullpen will undo this team.
