Dodgers are alright, let's face it boys we're not making it to this big show this year with this level of inconsistency. It's gonna be Dodgers-Yankees and i hope the Doyers win it, they deserve it after three losses in 4 years.
August 6, 2019 - 04:05
No they don't. Let'em be the Bills of Baseball.
August 6, 2019 - 04:27
but the dodgers are actually a good team. it's either them or the fucking yanks this year and i know who i prefer you aren't a crypto-yankee are ya?/

Who gives a shit? I'd rather they both lose.
Also Kintzler is injured so the bullpen is fucked now
