Clayton is going to fold like a cheap tent tonight lol

Idk. I think if Matz pitches well Kershaw will eventually crumble but I'm worried about Matz going today.

The guy is a stud but he hasn't pitched in like 20 days and has like 32 big league innings. If he ain't sharp it's trouble.

I think if Kershaw gets a lead he will cruise. If it's a close one he falters again.

Kansas City and Toronto, the two favorites who have been trailing in their LDS's, evened things up yesterday and forced decisive game 5's at home for tomorrow.

The Cubs and Mets have a chance to move on today, but as we all know, getting that kill-shot is never easy.

We could see all four series go the full 5.

I think the Dodgers are done. I am amazed that a team with that kind of payroll only has 2 good starters and Justin Turner batting cleanup. Mets advance tonight.

I was surprised that they used him yesterday. Not sure if that is good or bad for TX.

If they aren't going to use Price in a game 5 on regular rest, I don't know why they bothered to get him in the first place!

Don't wanna interrupt yer troll, but Justin Turner has been the hardest out in their lineup for almost the entire season. Which is especially galling, seeing as how ordinary he was as a Met.

I know he's played well for the first 3 games. It's just that the Dodgers needed better bats than that if they were to be taken seriously. That lineup is a joke with Rollins, Crawford & Hernandez playing every day.

Crucial to get him OUT of the game ASAP.

Early Mets runs would likely cause Mattingly to panic and yank him. If not, yeah, he will throw until the game is over or his arm falls off.

Matz is a special talent and if he can toughen up/avoid injuries, he's got a bright future ahead of him. Here's hoping he doesn't realize he's not supposed to dominate tonight

That's what I said about Joba

Not just him, the whole Dodgers team. What a poorly constructed roster.
Its actually kinda unbelievable that the Dodgers haven't seen the World Series lately and probably won't with the money and starting pitching talent they've thrown down.

CUBS FAVORED TO WIN NL PENNANT
Entering Tuesday, Chicago, up 2-1 on St. Louis in the NLDS, has the best odds of making it to the World Series out of the NL, according to the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook. The Mets, up 2-1 on the Dodgers, are close behind.
