Also, I will be streaming again tonight! Make sure to come, hang out, and talk with us! -
I am by no means a Dodger fan. In fact, being a Padre fan makes me the exact opposite of a Dodger fan. I HATE the Dodgers and am hoping with all that I have that the Rays can win this series. That being said, whoever wins this series even if it is the Dodgers, I don't feel as though there should be an asterisk next to this title. Sure, it's a strange and unusual season but it was for every other team out there competing for the same thing. Every team was on a level playing field dealing with all the same issues so I don't think there should be an asterisk next to anything.

If there’s no asterisk next to the 2017 World Series title, there shouldn’t be one for this season
-
Lineups are out! I edited the original post. The Dodgers changed their lineup to combat with Snell being a lefty.

Ray's win game 2, I still say this series goes at least 6 (Dodgers will win sorry Rays)

I agree with them winning tonight, Gonsolin doesn't help their case.
-
If Hernandez (LAD) gets at bats at some point against Snell, a LHP, I think it could benefit the Dodgers. Hernandez has been hitting LHP very well it seems. I think that Game 2 is Gonsolin's to win. I haven't watched Snell pitch all year, so it should be fun! I thought it was interesting that John Smoltz noted a "Mookie Betts factor" before Game 1's first pitch. I agree!
-
Watching the rays last night was like watching the dodgers in the 2018 WS. You get so mad because they can’t just get hits. I remember watching the Red Sox (and brewers) thinking, “why can’t the dodgers get an opposite field double? Why does everything have to be a Homerun or strikeout?”
If the dodgers can keep the ball in the stadium tonight, they boys in blue are in good shape.

LOWE!!!!!

Tisk Tisk Tisk. Seager almost had it.

It's a 60 game season played in empty stadiums. Of course it deserves an asterisk next to it. Yeah all the teams are on a level playing field but whoever wins won't be on the level with other championship teams. Same thing with the Lakers. I'm sorry to LA fans but that's like a counterfeit that you just can't pass off as real. My hand to god I said the same thing when my team was still in the race.

First off, was that a ball. Second, already someone in the bullpen!!??
-
HE GONE!!!!!
-
WHY DO YOU RUN HOME!!??

If Snell continues this we may have a strike out X amount of players with Snell in the World Series moment.

Lol. probably true.

That's 8 strikeouts for Snell in the 4th inning.

Glad we got Snell out of there. Dodger bats not as hot as yesterday.
