GDT: 2018 NLCS: Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Milwaukee Brewers

[NJDevs26]

And a team that has been here before.... when you haven't been here before ala Milwaukee, experience matters.

Especially with the manager...maybe more so than the players.

 

[Halladay]

Should be a good world series. Five of the eight likely starters will lefthanded.

 

[Tecumseh]

Cody Bellinger is named NLCS MVP. Didn’t do much in the series besides that homerun but honestly can’t think of who I would have preferred to have won that award.

Some years, it's easier than others. Not every LCS MVP can be 2015 Daniel Murphy or 1989 Rickey Henderson.

 

[Say Hey Kid]

Tecumseh, the word is won, not winned.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

2 old franchises in the WS. I love it.

I’m shocked. Impossible to notice your bias towards older franchises.

In all seriousness though it should be s great series.

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

experience matters.

The Brewers four worst hitters in the playoffs all had playoff experience. Three of their four worst pitchers in the playoffs had playoff experience. Are you done with this stupid line yet?

Dodgers are gonna get swept. Discrepancy between the too leagues is too much atm.

This is a terrible take. 7 out of the 15 teams were terrible.

 

[AveryQuietMan]

gonna be cold later this week at fenway.....

hope the dodgers know about long johns

 

[c9777666]

I don't think this WS will be a mismatch.

They humiliated two 100+ win teams. The dodgers will be a cakewalk in comparison IMO.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

Christian Yelich would be called fake MVP if this was the NBA.

There's a big advantage for LAD when Boston loses the DH and has to double switch and pinch hit for pitchers. JDM is a brutal defender and Mookie hasn't played middle infield in years.

 

[Tecumseh]

They humiliated two 100+ win teams. The dodgers will be a cakewalk in comparison IMO.

I guess you have no reason to watch then.

He was their offense tonight and should have had more if not for a ridonkulous catch

Would you have favored last year's 104-win Dodgers over 93-69 Red Sox?

 

[Halladay]

The Dodgers had a better run differential than their team last year that won 104 games and also better than the Yankees this year. You are underselling the Dodgers. I think Boston wins but I don't see this as an easy series for the Sox.

 

[c9777666]

That's why they play the games.

I mean, this is a message board for a sport where basically teams with gaudy records have had more pratfalls than triumphs.

Lest we forget the trevails of the President's Trophy.

They blew out the Yankees once and the Astros once. Every other game was decided by 3 runs or less, two by 1 run, two by 2 runs and one by 3 runs. That's hardly humiliation.

Absolutely this. I said back in July that Dodgers were the best team in NL even when they were playing. 500 ball. Dodgers are a good team and they'll take it up to Boston. I think Boston wins but it'll be far from easy.

MVP is a regular season award. Those that would call him a fake MVP are f***ing idiots.

Dodgers are better than the Yankees.

 

[c9777666]

The Red Sox would have had an easier time with the Brewers.

This will be no cakewalk.

 

[Belieber]

Props to the Brewers, taking it to 7 games against a team with a massive payroll and an actual playoff caliber starting rotation.

This should be a big ratings World Series which is good for the sport.
