sweet!!! Thanks for this.. lol


There was a lot of swearing there as the inning got progressively worse, ha. Damn, I can't say that I blame them. That sounded like me in that inning in San Diego.

One run allowed in 19 World Series innings for Walker Buehler. Truly spectacular. Yeah, I'm OK with bringing him back. Maybe his arm just needed the full year to fully acclimate. Or maybe he will just suck in the regular season from now on; who cares, at this point?

This is also why I'd have interest in Snell as a free agent. Regular season is irrelevant for him. Have to have serious interest in Teo back as well. Murders lefties and that was a huge reason our fortunes turned around against southpaws this season. Edman helps there too. Assuming no Soto (and I don't really think he'll be on the table), just bring Teo back. He's in his prime and he mashes. And likes the big stage.


Oh my, Snell in this rotation would be amazing.

Resigning Teo is a must

He has a chance to be remembered as this generation's version of Derek Jeter. Like, the picture of winning. Only Mookie is actually an even better player. He had that awful postseason slump, came out of it at the end of the NLDS, and was his normal self after that. Now hopefully he just continues that in each successive postseason.

He went from being a frontrunner to actually being a good clutch postseason player.....similar transformation seen from Yasiel Puig.

I'd like to believe the 5th inning was karma for those entitled Yankee fans that mauled Mookie in Game 4. Easily could have been injured and nothing but smug responses from those two fans that scream entitlement. Contrast that to the Dodgers fans that interfered earlier in the series. Showed regret, acknowledged, and gracefully let himself get escorted out without making a scene. I lived in NY for a year or so and wouldn't trade it for anything. Still...(bleep) New York and their fans.

And oh by the way, Betts is going to pass Jeter in career WAR sometime early next season if he stays healthy.

Howd they win without him? So odd, especially considering how he was right before for a month or more.

I'm not a fan of LAFC, but if you want to add MLS Cup titles, LAFC won in 2022 and the Galaxy won in 2014. (And both LA teams were 1-2 in the Western Conference this year and each have a real shot at an MLS title again.)

Oh, and the Sparks won a WNBA title in 2016.

Hahahhaha La Galaxy fan here......really looking up there too after years of management incompetence. Its the same turnaround after the incompetence of the McCourt years.

And the teams that used to be in San Diego (that are now in LA) still haven’t won anything, just like the Padres.

People can talk about 2020 meaning less or being too different, but I’m really glad the team won that title. This isn’t the 90’s Braves. This team didn’t just win a championship. The team won it AGAIN.

Yeah I'm a Galaxy guy too. Kind of pissed that LAFC became "the" team in LA and the Galaxy have always been here and have a rich tradition of winning.

Anyway, if you want to take it back just two more years, the Kings and Galaxy both won in 2012, so that would be 10 championships in 12 years. (And the Galaxy won in 2011 too.)

This one means more for sure. Down 2-1 to the hated Padres and we were in deep doo-doo. They were better than us on paper, with our injuries. To get past that was just epic. We were legit favored against the Mets, but they had been playing good ball for a long time so that was no gimme. Then this World Series, I mean, the Yankees flat-out gave us this game tonight (they had 19 total bases and we had 8!), and obviously we were oh-so-close to losing Game 1. It was just ultimately our turn. Our turn to win some improbable games and to have some moments that people will remember forever, chief among them the Freddie grand slam, of course.

It's kind of like how the Kings won their first Stanley Cup in 2012, unexpectedly just rampaging through the playoffs. But the '14 Cup just felt so much more meaningful, coming back from 3-0 down to the Sharks in the first round, down 3-2 to the Ducks in the second round, winning in Game 7 in OT on the road at Chicago in the WCF, and then winning 3 OT games against the Rangers to win the Cup. This kind of felt like that, for me, and the Kings and Dodgers are my two favorite teams, by far. I love the Lakers too of course, but I'm not passionate about basketball the way I am for baseball and hockey.

No way I sleep tonight before, say, 4AM. On way too much of a high.

This postseason felt different the moment Shohei hit that 3 run bomb in game 1 of the NLDS. I said during the post game that the anxiety and tension at the bar I was at was through the roof before that HR. You could feel it through the TV and each and every one here probably had that same "oh shiaaat....not again". I can't remember who it was (Will or Enrique?) but one of the players even said it completely took away the tension the team was feeling. One swing of the bat and it felt like a different team.

Those Kings teams made me a fan of the Kings as well. That playoffs run in 2014 was probably the most epic playoffs run I have ever seen in any sport. Being down 3-0 to a really good Sharks team, beating the Ducks in Game 1 with literally 1 second left and beating them in 7 and ending Selanne's career and then the biggest epic series of them all beating Chicago, winners of 11 and 13 and the team that knocked you out the year before and beating them in the United Center in Game 7 in Overtime when you were never leading....beating the Rangers to put a bow on it....man
