GDT: 2017 World Series: (NL 1) Los Angeles Dodgers vs (AL 2) Houston Astros

[Virtanen18]

Two teams I would like to see win. Think it'll have to get into a close game to see who I ultimately want to prevail here.

Think Dodgers end up winning it.

 

[TorMenT]

I'd like to see the Astros win it, but I'm guessing Dodgers will take it down.

 

[GKJ]

First time since 1970 the World Series will be contested with two 100-win teams. 8th time ever.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

LA's not as intimidating a venue as Fenway or Yankee Stadium. The Dodgers' main edge is their pen against Houston's pen. Everywhere else is fairly equal although the Astros' rotation is pitching better than the Dodgers' right now.

Keuchel/Verlander vs. Kershaw in Game 1 is definitely appointment TV.

Define intimidating.

 

[Cassano]

Would like Astros to win just because of Beltran.

 

[TorMenT]

Define intimidating.

Astros in 6

 

[DougieSmash]

Dodgers in 5.

Unlike last year or the year before, I don't care who wins this. I'd be happy for either but I'm gonna have to go with Kersh & the boys.

Reddick struggled last series. Hopefully he picks up his play. He's pumped to play the Dodgers. Here's why he's motivated.

It took a couple of games for McCann to get it going against his former team but he eventually got big hits against them. Hopefully Reddick does as well(but starts from game 1 to the end).

Here's a thought...just a thought...don't suck when a team trades for you at the trade deadline as part of the big acquisition.

I'm not sure how he expects fans to react when he's brought in to hit and he proceeds to not hit.

I just hope JV does better than 2012, still can picture him shaking off Jeff Jones. Still, I think the Dodgers take this.

Hope the Astros sweep them

Would like Astros to win just because of Beltran.

I totally forgot he was on the team.

Especially passionate fans.

reddick's pretty dim if he's not only admitting that the booing got to him but also that he doesn't seem to understand why he was booed.

puig was sent to the minors and reddick was his replacement for lack of a better word. reddick proceeded to hit .258/.307/.335 as a dodger. fans are going to boo you when you're replacing an electric player like puig and doing a really shitty job of it.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

I think he understands why they treated him the way they did, and even pretty much admits he deserved it. He's saying it would feel good to him on a personal level to beat them, because fair or not, no one likes being booed or disliked.

I think KBIB likes it. So weeeeird he hasn't been on here lately

 

[GarbageGoal]

Pulling hard for Houston, but it's hard to see the Dodgers not winning this.

Busy schedule.

 

[Voight]

Busy schedule.

Bears and Bulls suck... he's only got one good team to watch now.... maybe if we Beetlejuice him he'll appear

 

[GuitarGuy]

It would be good for Houston to win it with all that Texas has been through the last few months.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

As much as I would like the Astros to win, the difference in bullpens is just too significant for me not to take LA. Dodgers in 6.
