    @PtldPlatypus are you worried about the series?

    Should the Phillies be winning or is it a big upset?

    Like 150 games a season, how much parity is there actually between teams in the MLB? Has the lowest ranked team ever won the WS?

    I'd be lying if I said that their lack of offense wasn't concerning. I don't really trust Morton to shut down the Phillies' hitters. If their bats don't wake up tomorrow against Thor, they're done.

    Fortunately with them having won it all last year, I'm a bit more at peace with that than I might be otherwise.

    I’m not a big fan of Seattle. I mean the people there are fine I just don’t like the city much.

    But that’s a good baseball town there. Diehard fans for a team that really hasn’t given them anything to really root for in their 45 or so years of existence.

    Can't hit a thing today. Kirby can only do so much.

    Why you don’t send Munoz back out after only throwing 11 pitches is unreal to me? WTF?

    If the Mariners win this in 18 innings does that count as 2 wins?

    Don’t think I’ve seen this many batters hit by pitch in a while.

    Altuve used to be one of the most dangerous hitters in baseball. He’s been dog water in this series

    Nobody in the dugout hitting a trashcan so he knows what pitches are coming.

    Now they need to win this before Alvarez gets up to the plate.
