Strike 3,975 Posted October 24, 2021 I won't watch, just like I haven't watched any of the other series either. I don't care much for baseball unless I'm there live. However, I am enjoying the fact that the WS is being held in these two particular states after MLB pulled the ASG from Atlanta for no good reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pimpadeaux 2,266 Posted October 24, 2021 GO ASTROS! We went to the game Friday, and that was great. Highest-level playoff game I've attended. Thought about going to the World Series, but tickets are way too expensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have absolutely zero interest. dodgers have to be pissed, what a failed dynasty in baseball. Its not over yet. The Dodgers big free agents are: Max Sherzer, Klayton Kershaw, Kenley Jansen, Corey Seager and Chris Taylor. The 2022 are: C Will Smith 1B Max Muncy 2B Gavin Lux SS Trea Turner 3B Justin Turner OF: Betts, Bellinger, Pollock Rotation: Walker Buehler Julio Urias Tony Gonsolin David Price Dustin May (returns in mid-season from Tommy John surgrey) They will need to find a DH (the NL will get the DH starting next year). They likely will need 2 starting pitchers. They need a closer / relievers. The Dodgers payroll will drop sginificantly with Kershaw and possibly Bauer off the roster. They could resign Sherzer. But this isn't the end. NEXT year may be the end, as Pollock, Trea Turner, Justin Turner and Max Muncy are all free agents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It isn’t official yet but will probably be discussed during the new CBA during the off-season…. The DH was one the worst rule changes that has happened in the history of this game and hopefully it will stay of the NL next year… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But if they are set on changing it to have uniformity between the two leagues, I agree with you, it ought to be scrapped and revert back to how it was with both not having a DH, as that requires a heck of a lot more strategy/work for the managers and, in turn, more intrigue in the game.

Thornton Melon 544 Posted October 25, 2021 I don't have too much interest in this. I used to hate Atlanta, now I'm meh. But, I can't root for Houston. So, I guess I'll root for Atlanta, and hope they take it in 4 or 5, so the league has to present the trophy in the state of Georgia. Hopefully, a small crowd of wokesters protests outside the stadium That'd be good for a laugh. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
