Kolarek (gap), Ferg, Alexander, waiver-plucked McGee
AvatarJay Jaffe
11:28
they seem to think they can fix McGee but we shall see
Ben Clemens
11:28
Kolarek is great, but yeah
Mind the gap
11:29
Sorry Eduardo, some pitchers aren't built up enough to face *three* hitters?
That's worrisome!
Josh
11:30
How the hell do the Dodgers find major leaguers in the 38th round?
Eric A Longenhagen
11:30
Arguably the best dev group in baseball
Dodger Fan

TOOTBLAN
Dumbest rundown ever
Ben Clemens
11:30
I thought Seager made a nice heads up read to not finish the double play attempt
But also, yeah
Chico Herrera
11:31
I would have made that play! Put me in, Dave.

Ridley

I just noticed there's still netting behind the plate. The fans are cardboard!
Eric A Longenhagen
11:31
they should remove the netting and let's see what happens to the cutouts
Ben Clemens
11:32
Don't team employees sit back there sometimes?
Eric A Longenhagen

Matt Chapman!

Anyone listen to the earlier game when they were discussing playoff dark horses?
AvatarJay Jaffe
11:35
like the Astros?
Eric A Longenhagen
11:35
Yes, haaaaa
Ben Clemens
11:36
I forget which announcer it was, but they said "Oh I like the A's. Matt Chapman is an MVP candidate. Matt Olson is an MVP candidate. Marcus Semien (pause) wants to prove he can play at a high level this year."
HE WAS AN MVP VOTE GETTER LAST YEAR YOU DWEEBS
A-Rod does not understand what dark horse or sleeper means, it's true
Dodger Fan
11:36
He placed third!
Ben Clemens
11:36
Yeah it was inexcusable
AvatarJay Jaffe
11:37

Morgan

Which team do you think most benefits from the expanded playoff format?
AvatarJay Jaffe
11:37
.500ish teams. Angels, Mets
Ben Clemens
11:37
hot take: sub-.500-ish teams
Eric A Longenhagen
11:37
NL Central teams all have a better chance to beat up on AL Central and slip in
AvatarJay Jaffe
11:37
as in they'll get in. won't get anywhere
Ben Clemens
11:38
I had the NL Central winning both wild cards in the old format
Couldn't bring myself to add a *fourth*
AvatarJay Jaffe
11:38
i have Reds-Cubs-Brewers all in
Ben Clemens
11:39
I have Reds-Brewers-Cards
Dodger Fan
11:39
There will likely be a sub-.500 team in this year, probably in the AL
Ben Clemens
11:39
Potentially in the NL as well
