Washington looks dangerous this year. I hope they win the NL. Just their pen sucks.

But that year the Astros won the WS they had bullpen troubles and it was bullpen by committee during that postseason run.

So anything can happen.

I'd prefer Dodgers to win. I don't trust Washington to beat the Cardinals.

If the Nationals bats come alive, they are capable of at least making the series. Their pen does suck but they are capable of 9 to 13 run games which is plenty to win despite their pen.

As long as St Louis is in, I can’t comfortably root for any underdogs, for fear the Cards become the beneficiary of the upset.

So, I will hope all series go 5 while rooting for Atlanta over StL.

I know the Astros haven't won anything this year but how did the Cubs not be like the Astros.

They both had the same tanking plan.

Man they swung at so many bad pitches during that comeback attempt. Swung at balls out side the zone. if they dont' swing they tie the game on BoBs.

The Twins are absolutely rubbish. It's almost as if they're record is inflated by playing the shitty Tigers, Royals, and Sox almost 60 games a year.

These cards. 2 hits all game and they're about to win 1-0.
Unfucking real.

Cards had no offense for 8 innings of game 1 (until Braves lost the reliever they wanted to use), none in Game 2, none in Game 3 and are about to be up 2-1.

Unfucking real.

Pretty much anything Yadi's glove can touch has been a strike today.

braves! clutch! 3-1!

I dont know why the cards manager keeps putting martinez out to finish games.

From what I've seen of the guy this year he gets in trouble too much and gets burnt too much.

Melancon to close. Has he been good w/ the braves? he sucked for san fran.

Goldy up. at least a lead off hr doesn't hurt you here.

There's Yadi again telling someone other than a teammate how to act!!

**** you, Yadi. Your pitcher just threw high and in to the opponent's best hitter.

Fucking same shit every series! Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

Hold on, Atlanta!!

Melancon has been shaky in both games so far and this is his third game in four days. This is definitely not over.

As I wrote earlier, repeating a tweet I saw -

Death.
Taxes.
A St. Louis Cardinal player telling someone else how to act!

Melancon sucks. I wouldn't be surprised if cards come back and win.
