Meanwhile I am at peace with this series either way because it'll either be A) a comeback or B) a series in which Elcano got 3 starts and I still lost and thereby didn't deserve

Moose Sellers can't face Tampa Bay without giving up at least 5 ER so that will happen and we will lose tomorrow

In the end, it comes down to throwing one pitch after another, and seeing what happens. With each new consequence, the game begins to take shape.
Okay but speculating here, if Tampa Bay goes all the way taking out New York, Trenton, Santa Fe, and Anaheim or Cleveland in succession I'm ready to call them a Team of Destiny

Also I am now rooting for this to happen so hard

hey you know what's gonna be great is when Tampa Bay plays like an 85-win team against Santa Fe, then Santa Fe beats Cleveland again to win another WS despite having a team that's basically a shell of it's former self, one that ditched their top ace to look more toward the future and somehow waltzed to another crown

yaaaaaay let's pay money to keep helping this farce along every season yaaaaay

if I return it's because I don't want anyone else running this team and Jeff getting all my players, but I'm serious about not doing the OP or anything anymore. Someone else can do all that now.

It couldn't have lined up better for me rotation wise, so of course Creek got shelled in game one and Wally got shelled in game five. Would be rad to be on the good end of a surprise run one of these days but the window is about closed.

Baseball is pain.

Yup my worst team was my first season in the playoffs and was the one year I beat Jeff. I stopped caring because I kept losing to Dryb or Devo in the playoffs. But poo poo happens, playoffs are a complete crap shoot. But I also see why Nasboat can get frustrated most of this game good teams are on autopilot and bad teams are ignored while you rebuild.
