Welp the Braves finally ran out of fumes, this sorta crash has been coming and I’m amazed it took this long. Fun that they overhauled and doomed the Mets, but just as clearly the Mets doomed the Braves by making them go so far into the red for the division race. Hard to complain otherwise, Phillies always play the Braves tough and were obviously better this series. Team should be still pretty solid next year, and maybe properly rested. Keep Dansby (or snag an upgrade), get a real left fielder, and do the usual pitching carousel. Also the best time to ditch the name and the chop was yesterday but today or even tomorrow will do just fine.

They should just be the barves instead of the chop they can make barving noises.

This is the second year in a row two 100+ win teams exhausted each other in a narrow division race and crapped out in the playoffs. They really should re-seed the playoffs based on win total.

Actually mcmagic is right, Ohtani should be sitting at like 95%. I blame all you NL cowards.

2022 Mariners season is over so here are some thoughts. 1. Julio Rodriguez is much better than I thought, and I thought I was being optimistic. Putting aside his weird start to the year he played at essentially MVP quality level (145-150+ wRC+ and average fielding in CF). Even if he just plays at that level for the next few years he's a legitimate franchise cornerstone player and the best to wear a Mariners uniform since A-Rod left. 2. The starting rotation is covered. Logan Gilbert made a big step forward in year 2, George Kirby's already the 2nd best starter on the roster and the gap between him and Luis Castillo isn't very large. Robbie Ray kind of is what he is but if he's the 4th starter in a rotation you're probably doing okay. 3. The rest of the lineup is up and down. Suarez solves the 3B question for probably the next year or two, and Ty France is solidifying himself as a good, not great, player. JP Crawford on the other hand took a big step back and has serious work to do with his swing to remain an MLB starter on a team with a responsibility to try and win the AL West every year for the next 4-5 starting next season. Jesse Winker looked like he had zero power all year and is dealing with a disk injury so who knows what to expect from him. 4. Jarred Kelenic looked like rear end to start the year at the plate but during his time back up at the tailend of the season he demonstrated a pretty positive process and is a legitimately great corner OF. I think that if he isn’t traded he’s probably on the team next year and they give the Kelenic in RF hope a shot again for a bit. There are some departures looming (Adam Frazier, Mitch Haniger) but neither’s performance merits bringing them back. Look for the Mariners to be buyers in free agency and at the deadline for a middle infielder, a corner OF bat, and a mostly DH-sometimes infielder.

Is Kyle Lewis cooked/busting or was this just a down year after an injury?

Man I was expecting to be crushed if we lost tonight but I'm mostly just feeling relieved right now lmao. The stress of this series is over and I can just be excited about what a great season the M's are gonna have next year!

Would be great to beat the poo poo out of the Astros for the next 4-5 years, we didn't get to enjoy them blatantly tanking and playing the worst baseball imaginable in the NL Central for the early 2010s.

Kyle Lewis suffered a pretty horrific knee injury when he was in the minors that still bothers him to this day, the fact he got ROTY is remarkable. Add in that with the really bad concussion he got on the HBP and it's hard seeing him being any sort of contributor.

There's something up with the way he recovered from his meniscus injury in 2021, he can barely move and doesn't seem to realize that. Rumors are he did not handle being sent back down well in August.

I don't know how well it came across in the broadcast, but the Mariners crowd was awesome while at the game. Through 17 innings, it was rocking and 98% filled even then. Only problem was that Macklemore got to talk twice over the PA. But they were there and in it the whole time and it was a joy. Until the 18th.

every time I see a Dodgers season it's like “the team had three separate 28-game win streaks en route to a 137-25 season while the lineup did something that hasn't been done since ‘The Massacre Men’ of the 1886 Allentown Boatswains, as Los Angeles lost in the NLDS 3-1”
