Hoffman going 3 straight as Raleigh watched on is honestly almost as big as George’s bomb. Hoffman could have single-handedly blown everything we are now feeling but he didn’t. That’s huge.

Yesavage
Gausman
Beiber
Scherzer

i'm assuming, if Gausman needs his regular rest.

Pillar on a great ramble here, very emotional and well spoken. Saying how much the Bautista bat flip meant to him, so knowing how the guys feel right now. Very touching.

is Bo full recovered and have his full range or does he take 2nd, for example.

Pinch hitter only. Leave the rest the same.

Loperfido stays home.

George's sore knee adds a wrinkle to putting him in the outfield

Hoffman was characteristically flirting with the zone. Those last 2 full-count-strikeouts were technically balls. Things could’ve imploded very badly. He didn’t actually pitch great, but it’s the results.

Yeah, we've been slightly spoiled in some ways even though we don't go deep into the playoffs very often. I was thinking the Bautista home run (and Carter to a lesser extent) going into the later stages of the game because I'm just SO USED to them happening in moments like these. Then someone on twitter says this **** just doesn't happen often, and I go "wow really?" because I figured they must happen on a semi regular basis over the years.

The pressure is all on the Dodgers. If we lose, we lost to the juggernaut team that will likely cause MLB to change its rules soon. No shame in that.

So the boys should be playing with house money here. Plus home field advantage. We can definitely make a run.

At this point until further notice,Bo at 2nd,Giminez at short.Ikf subs for Bo or Giminez late in games.Leave Springer at DH

Raps came back from 0-2 in the CF before beating the super team. History is about to repeat itself.

Woah Woah Woah. If we're putting vladi in these conversations (even making the World Series, there's no doubt we lose to Dodgers in 4/5, at the very highest 6). Then where are we putting ohtani at?

There is SO MUCH doubt. Even if you accept that the Dodgers are a better team.

This is baseball. Stronger teams lose to weaker ones ALL THE TIME. Even over multiple game series.

At the level Ohtani plays right now, if he does that crap to Blue Jay's? It's def going to 4.

Also it's my opinion, it's not a definitive answer

Your opinion is wrong. There's nothing 'def' about a sweep.
