I'm just disappointed, this was a winnable series, but the bats weren't there. I don't think the Snell thing matters since the Rays are not winning these games scoring only 1 run.

Congrats Dodgers, you have a juggernaut of a team. There's a lot of guys there that certainly are deserving of a ring. I'm glad Mookie is on a team that I don't despise.

I'm sure I'll look back on this fondly over time, but there's always the cloud of Sternberg and the stadium and all that which makes me in a constant worry about the future. I did get to see the Rays take out the Yankees in one of the most satisfying ways possible, and they took out the supervillains of baseball in a series that got way too close for my liking. I also got to see a legend of October born.

What a ride with all this high leverage sports situations I've endured. Starting on August 11 with 5 overtimes and ending today. At the very least I got to watch a Stanley Cup during all of this, and asking for two might've been too much but drat they were so close.

At the very least I know the Rays play in the greatest stadium in baseball and any opinions otherwise are completely wrong and lalalala I can't hear you. Also gently caress Stu Sternberg.

We're still league champions, we still did better than 2008. It hurts now but I'm drat proud of what this team did.

And Mookie Betts deserves it if nothing else.

I’m sorry for Rays fans that things went down the way they did. That Yankees series was epic, and the Rays are a team that has a bright future ahead.

I will never forget Randy’s postseason especially, and I hope we see a lot more of that from him (we will!)

I'm betting Manfred's earpiece has his own voice piped in, so he's hearing himself on a delay while trying to talk and it's loving him up.
