We don’t have the best offense in baseball. That is the Dodgers. But we’re arguably second.

The Mariners strength is their rotation and bullpen. This was going to be an uphill battle the moment it was 3-0. The key to beating the M's is shutting down their offense, which is not great. Tomorrow the Jays can't afford to get down early like they did today.

I'm out. I don't see them coming back. Hope the Raps give us an entertaining win despite it being preseason.

Phillies added 5 more runs and ended up stealing game 1 despite having just 4 baserunners through 8 innings.

They were happy for 8 innings, I've been miserable for two hours.
I'd rather be down early and expect to lose with the potential to come back than be leading 2-0 with an expected win percentage of like 99.9% only to give up 6 runs in the 9th lol.

I'd have actually brought in Kikuchi here.

Those are words I didn't think I'd ever say.

Kikuchi figured out how to throw all of his pitches for strikes just in time for the playoffs.it would be spectacular to have him beat his former team somehow.
