National League Wild Card - What Would YOU Do?

I know everyone here is probably waiting for me to say this lol, but what a defensive play with Teoscar Hernandez throwing out Stanton at the plate. I mean Stanton is definitely not Ricky Henderson, but Hernandez had to make a perfect throw to make that play. He did and the throw was clocked over 93 miles an hour. I mean the radar guns are juiced, but still that’s an amazing throw. I want this thing over with and I want the Dodgers to win tonight and sweep the Yankees. I learned the most interesting stat yesterday. Aaron Judge is one of two players in major league history with at least 200 at bats in the postseason and a batting average under 200. I’ve been checking out some Yankee podcasts on YouTube. They want this man dead. They are calling him a worthless embarrassment. Chicken shit playoff performer! The comments on some of those YouTube videos of Yankees nation are ripping Aaron Judge to threads.

I’m looking forward to the off season. I want to see.Teo get the $100 million contract he deserves and I want to see what the hell the Blue Jays are going to do with Guerrero and signing additional power. I don’t know how I’m going to be motivated to even watch the Blue Jays knowing that they have the same idiots in the front office….. I really think Mark Shapiro bothers me more than Ross Atkins. With Mark Shapiro, I feel the Blue Jays are trapped with the king of shit talk mumbo-jumbo. He has been guiding this entire organization the wrong way, and will sit there and lie to your face about what’s happening, and talk nothing but shit along the way. And he is the head honcho. It really is terrifying. I feel like the only reason he’s not replacing Ross Atkins, is because he knows he himself is the one that’s really responsible for this mess. He probably calls many more shots than we even realize. That’s the word on the type of involvement he has but then he plays it off to the media like he’s not involved in baseball operations, which I think is untrue. I keep going back to what Jeff Blair said in 2015 when AA left office. “Mark Shapiro likes to put his fingers in every pie.”

In tonight‘s game, let’s count how many times Cole rubs the back of his left wrist and then touches the baseball lol. Josh Donaldson and Alek Manoah were correct in saying that guy is such a cheater.

I thought Cole was starting tonight for the Yankees. I had read that somewhere. Now I am reading he is not.

Should the Yanks bench Judge tonight?
Zero chance of that happening.
And it would be a dumb move to leave your biggest bat on the bench.
Judge can snap out of his slump in just 1 game.
Of course he can also go 0 for 4 tonight 😂

I'll be supporting the Dodgers all the way. Fuck the Yankees 😈

Yankees will start Gil.
Dodgers will start Casparius
I have not been the biggest fan of many Yankee decisions in this series. You’re facing elimination in the World Series and there is no tomorrow..And Cole is on 3 days rest. But then again if they win tonight without Cole and start him tomorrow and bring the series back to LA, the move looks genius.

Some interesting facts:
--Only 4 teams in World Series history that have been down 3 games to none have forced a 5th game(Yankees are the fourth).
--No teams in World Series history that have been down 3 games to none have forced a game 6.
--Freddie Freeman has now hit a home run in 6 consecutive World Series games. 4 in this series and 2 when he was with the Braves. That's an MLB record.
--Only one player from a losing team has been named World Series MVP. I have posted this question in the new sports trivia thread.

About that record for home runs in consecutive World Series games. George Springer is second with 5.
