Then again, had he bet the Brewers live in the top of the third (following Machado HR in 2nd) he woulda grabbed +180 and coulda bought any seat he wanted and a Dodger dog or twoQuote:

MOBILE - LOS ANGELES DODGERS AT MILWAUKEE BREWERS [BATTER PROPS] MONEYLINE BREWERS +180
Series, game, live
At the worst it’s a coin flip between these two teams at plus money. No brainer
I completely don’t understand why Brewers are curb stomping Dodgers with Hader tonight.
Thanks anyway
My condolences Druff, but GO BREWERS!!!
I almost went to the game tonight because one of my friends had an extra ticket at the last minute, but i convinced him to give it to his nephew instead. Whats wrong with me! Oh well, that kid will have some great memories.
Craig Counsel is fucking up this Hader relief story.
Completely unnecessary given Dodger relief. I’d go toe to toe with Dodgers offense vs their relief.
My little buddy Urias is back!
Oh, the good times we had with this kid 2 years ago.
Bases loaded with Dodgers... I’d still put one in Machado’s ear hole
Fucking douche hits the catcher in the head on his follow through and just walked away.
A little fear of future earnings would go a long way this series.
Brewers are soft
Great AB for Joc to keep the game going.
Even if the Dodgers don't pull off the miracle, at least they fought back somewhat and won't be as demoralized (nor the Brewers as confident) going into tomorrow.
Well Sanlmar, at least you have to admit the Dodgers have done a good job fighting back when way down.
5 runs down in NLDS Game 3, pulled into a tie.
5 runs down in the 8th, and now it's 6-5 with a runner on 3rd.
4 Dodgers errors were the difference. That’s something to build on too.Quote:

I have always loved Kike.
I have flipped on Bellinger. Don’t make me say anything more.
Fortunately for the Brewers, Turner was in his own head, being 0-for-4 with 3 K (even though the 3rd K was a screw job), and he whiffed a 4th time to end the game.
So close, yet so far away.

When David Ortiz talks but ears start to bleed.
Its like he just spits out random words with pauses in between hoping for it to make sense.
Fox Sports round table...
One by one the Kershaw reality is accepted. It’s a slow process and there is always value being first.
Odd to see ARod still defensive about Kershaw. I generally hold his opinion in high regard.
Joe Buck is a babbling idiot.
say what you want to, but kershaw isn't the same lights out pitcher he use to be. whether he's tired or injured? or maybe we expect dominance every trip to the mound.
No idea how Wade Miley has become so good after being crap for a long time, and really only having one good year of his career.
Well, Justin Turner made up for his massive fail yesterday.
Milwaukee bullpen looking very human thus far.
Not gonna lie, I thought Dodgers were losing this series when they were going into the 7th down 3-0.
Turner really is the type of guy who can just shrug off a failgame and come back the next day and be productive. Yesterday's final at-bat was one of the few times in his Dodgers career where I really saw him pressing.
I'll try to attend one of the games this week. Maybe Tuesday.
Chris Taylor regressed this year, but so far he's been money in the postseason. 5-for-9 in this LCS so far.
He tops out at about 92 now. I think That pretty much explains most of his regression.Quote:

Why does Milwaukee keep running Jeffress out there, when clearly he doesn't have it this postseason?
Amazing that the Dodgers have the tying run at the plate right now.
Fortunately for the Brewers, Rally Killer Grandal is up.
Sucks that the bases loaded rally came down to Grandal and Dozier -- who have both been dreadful in recent times. 2 Ks, and that was that.
At least the prices for tomorrow will probably go down.
:fail2
Consider this
All the discussion about Counsell’s use of his bullpen. Zero discussion about the weak Dodgers bullpen b/c Dodgers have been dominated so far
Kike Hernandez went off on the fans after they booed the struggling Yasmani Grandal and chanted "We want Austin!"
Here's what he said:
Quote:
It sucks that there's nothing going on in the stands since the first inning when Braun hit that double. It's quiet for the rest of the evening, and it sucks that they got loud just to show up Yasmani.
If they think they can do it, go ahead, put on your gear and go catch 99 with breaking balls that have a lot of movement. He's been one of the best catchers in the game for a while now. He's having a little bit of a rough patch, which we all — as humans, as baseball players — go through.
Sometimes we feed off the crowd. Fans here do a great job of showing up and packing the stadium every night and having a lot of passion for the game. Tonight, for whatever reason — I guess as contagious as the energy is going to be from the fans to the players, it was from the players to the fans.
I understand Hernandez sticking up for his friend, but he can't blame the fans for the Dodgers not being able to score runs, or get hits with runners in scoring position. (They were 0-for-10 with RISP, and were the worst team in baseball in that respect in 2018.)
Everyone on that team gets paid a whole lot of money, and getting booed when you fail comes with the territory.
Give me the $8 million per year Grandal is making, and people can boo me all they want!

Derek Johnson, more cutters, less fastballs equal a Wade Miley career year
Kershaw's career postseason ERA now sits at 4.26 in 133 innings.Quote:

What’s frustrating is that I feel as if I am going to lose control of the Kershaw narrative. Somehow he was the goat and now he has regressed. We never agreed he was the best cause he beat the best
I'm probably going to the game myself tonight, which is kinda idiotic, but that's the way it looks like it's going to fall, if I want to go to one this series.
All of my LA area friends are either too busy with work to make a weekday game] or aren't Dodgers/baseball fans.
Would take Ben, but he has school tomorrow, and we would get back too late (game starts at 6:10pm, and I'm a good 50 miles or so away).
I did go to the World Series by myself, buying my ticket on the way there with an iPad in my lap, getting a great Jew deal, and I enjoyed it a lot.
Don't want to go tomorrow because it's at 2pm, and it will be a hot day. 2pm is the hottest time of the day in LA, and I hate sitting with the sun beating down on me on a hot day for 3 hours. 6pm is much much better, aside from the awful traffic driving in (some of which I can avoid through side street trickery).
I just searched on stub hub for giggles and there is an all you can eat ticket for $50
What the F is that?
If the Dodgers organ player turns up missing on his way home tonight I will cry no tears
When fans cheer it’s usually in anticipation of something positive. Think about that.
Of course, that’s not their fans expectation given their sad playoff experience thus we play some Doors riff.
Is it common for the crowd to erupt every time their team hits a grounder to an infielder or is that just the faggot ass Dodgers??
Machado really is Dodgers Ty Cobb
11 innings of hate. I’m exhausted
Stadium half empty. Maybe not.
Any of you Russians have access to Druff’s FB or Twitter?
Hope he’s ok.
This can't be good for his LPR and anxiety, lol.Quote:
