  1. A team can care and still lose for a variety of reasons. For example, the other team can cheat (see Astros). Or a team can lose their best pitchers to injuries (Glasnow, Yamamoto). They’ll be fine. Maybe this year when we expect less, we might get more. Go Dodgers!

  2. Dodgers annual October trip to Cancun is on for this year. Book now and then next year you can act like you forgot about this year and pretend your tradition isnt losing (it actually is losing – dont forget all the terrible early exits.) you are terrified it will happen again, and Padres fans will continue to make fun of you for wearing some losers hats and pretending to be winners.

  3. First year watching this team. Yes, Ohtani fan but ended up liking all the players. Not gonna lie I'm kinda dreading this series. I feel like something bad will happen. Just hope no one gets hurt! Overall, I think this team is capable of winning. The bullpen is solid and the offense got better throughout the season. I think it would help mentally if they won the first game. Shohei can't do it all himself so I'm crossing my fingers that Mookie can get out of that slump he's had the last two PS. I'm also rooting for Teoscar, Will, Muncy, and Edman because I have a feeling that they will do well. Last note, but wishing JFlare a good game hopefullyhe can go 6/7 innings. – Tally from Miami

  4.
