Dodgers (90-69) @ Mariners (90-69) Sep 26-28, '25...

These 3 games are meaningless. Geezus. This place is so doom and gloom sometimes, it's almost impressive.

Why does Rosarena step out of the box with the pitch on the way?

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Pretty much this. The games don't mean anything.

They truly mean squat.

He does that a lot.

Another tough loss. Munoz was not on his game tonight.

Good to see guys like Harry and Rivas get playing time, and Cal and JP get some rest.

Julio gets his 30/30 for the year.

Cal goes 1-4 or something. No HR.

Would hate to get swept out of the season.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Meh. Playing out the string. Couldn't worry if I tried.

 

[Crizilla]

They don't need to play like it's the WS they already clinched what they can. October 4th is when chit gets real.

 

[Bobblehead]

just want to get the game over with.. nothing to gain, excpet Cal who .. well I have no idea what the hell he's swinging at.

They swing at everything it's just what they do. It works when the pitching doesn't give up more than 3 or 4 runs. I think they either go on a WS run or get rekt. The entire offense runs off the home run.

 

[NoGain]

I don't really much care about this series. We're just running out the clock till the second season starts. Cal got his 60th, and that's all I really cared about that. If he got a few more, fine, but 60 made me more than happy. I see these games more as batting and pitching practice than anything else.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Yep. I hope he rests a bunch of starters on Sunday.

 

[CallMeADawg]

Exhibition games until the real ones start

 

[SoulfishHawk]

No doubt. So huge to have the 2 seed wrapped up before this series.

If anyone who thinks momentum isn't a thing, is clueless. Do they need to win these games, no, but going into the playoffs with a mini (possible) three game slump, isn't a good thing either. However, I will acknowledge they could KILL IT going forward. They've proved it, but slumps are slumps. We have to hope this doesn't continue.

 

[SuperSonic67]

We’ve locked in our spot…stay healthy and get ready for the playoffs

Drama Much? Geezus

Slump? 3 games that mean absolutely NOTHING. Coming off a 17-1 stretch.

Just wow.

 

[NoGain]

I personally don't think momentum is going to make much of a difference when we've got a week off before our first playoff game. It's almost like an etch-a-sketch situation. Turn it over and shake it, it's back to a clean slate. It's not like we're the Tigers or Mets who were hanging on to the edge of a cliff by their fingernails. We grabbed the division and the bye in our fist after a tremendous run, and then the Dodger series basically became a moot point.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

VERY well said ^^^^

 

[SoulfishHawk]

GARVER, RIVAS, YOUNG and MASTERBONER all starting. If you need any proof that this game means nothing.....there you are.
I suspect Miller throws maybe 3 innings.
Shoot. Julio isn't even playing today

 

[sutz]

I'm a believer in momentum, too, but having 4 days off will probably do as much damage as anything that happens this weekend.

 

[Crizilla]

Miller definitely won't be starting in the post season.
