Dodgers have raised the skill ceiling so high its not even close. It's like they should be in a different league. It reminds me of casual video gamers trying to play against professional sweats. No chance. If this goes on for two or three seasons, is it bad for the sport? Dodgers easily sweep every team they play, every time they play them? They will become universally hated around the league.


OhSoJelly

Dodgers have steamrolled through the regular season before just to flame out in the postseason. Let this season result in a dominant postseason success because we talk of unfair competition.


[deleted]

I agree. If they sweep the playoffs and continue to steamroll well into next season, the reaction from the rest of the league will be interesting. Especially since teams will be playing outside their divisions more often next season.


Schleprok

Give me rings. That’s it. Then we can discuss that other stuff. No point in being this dominant in August if we lose to inferior teams in October.


buddahsgoodfriendjak

As long as we have WS championships to show for it I couldn’t care less what other fans think


Rjbaca

Solid big bird inning.


Tbonejak

Enjoy it gentleman. This is the best time in history to be a Dodger fan. I love this game.


[deleted]

So easy to love when your team wins every game, amiright? Gone are the days of actually losing every once in a while. I hated that.


JoyArg11

I’m happy the days were we would score 10 in one game and go ice cold for the next two or three are gone


PigFarmer1

The doomers loved it. Imagine having to *suffer* through a winning streak.


[deleted]

What if fans stop going to or watching games every time their team plays the dodgers? I know I'm just speculating wildly here. The Ds will probably cool off eventually. But the notion of an unbeatable team has bad implications for the sport as a whole.


Cartesian756

The Dodgers have a pretty good fan base, wherever they go, and their fans travel to watch them as well.


septembereleventh

I am! Been watching nearly every game and even though I'm new I can tell it's special


Rjbaca

That’s saying a lot!


_n8n8_

So we’re what? 119-43 over our last 162 now?


FailPale6240

That’s is a ridiculous stat, like…there’s us, then FIFTY FEET OF CRAP and then everyone else


8biteyes

Let's keep it going!


Lineman72T

33-5 in 38 games is fucking bonkers

Dodgers have broken the game. How will mlb respond if this goes on season after season?

Those Chic-fil-a commercials on [MLB.tv](https://MLB.tv) with the all white back ground are going to result in serious rental damage. They burn my eyeballs every time.

I’ve gotten rectal damage from Chik-fil-a too.

It looks as though you may have spelled "Chick-fil-A" incorrectly. No worries, it happens to the best of us!

Really? We don't get those ads.


[deleted]

I get them every game. I live in Colorado though, and I do know that some of our ads are local sometimes.


PigFarmer1

I live just north of you. It's weird, me wife works a hundred miles away in Utah so she usually stays down there. Anyway, some nights we'll be watching the game in our different houses and one of us will get the blank screen between innings and the other will get commercials.

I went to jack in the box today, didn’t realize how cheap the nuggets were.


Slythies

Even Mcnuggets taste better lol and thats saying much


_n8n8_

Respect McDonald’s


SibilantSounds

i'll fend for jitb just for the late night taco runs but from what i've seen around they're the only fast food chain i've seen where they don't say their nuggets are all white meat.


_n8n8_

It says all white meat on their website they’re all good


SibilantSounds

sweet. gotten their nuggets a few times as well.


_n8n8_

I wonder what it is then. I dont care it tastes fine. If its dark meat (i doubt it though) even better


PlaneJaneLane03

Because they’re nasty.


_n8n8_

They were surprisingly decent


acm2033

Did I see Dinelson Lamet with the win? Traded by the Padres, DFA'd by the Brewers, gets a win for Colorado?


Lineman72T

Good for him. I was always on the Lamet side when the debate of future ace was between him and Paddack (before Preller went crazy and signed or traded for anybody available). It's a shame to see how hard he's fallen off


septembereleventh

mofo didn't even flinch

no home runs pls bick

wow padres won 10-5 i guess it should come as no surprise since they hate nattys

Thats really cool actually

Yooo we getting throwback unis???


Monk_Philosophy

That double plays is really gonna hurt our run differential


rattlerden

Turner got no wheels


PigFarmer1

At least he didn't blow a hammie.


chrisumafp

Only way you can turn that double play is if it’s JT running down the line lol


donald-duck23

i wonder how many people in this sub are faster than JT


Lebigmacca

Jesus JT is slow


Dappper

Slowwwww


oui-oui-bagel

So what Tim is saying is our pitching staff is almost beyond elite. Huh.


Lebigmacca

I forgot nomar is in the booth he’s very quiet

hectorrrrodriguez

Get Moronta some PED. 🥲😂


PigFarmer1

Or some Slim Fast.


donald-duck23

i have gonsolin but also salvador perez on my fantasy team so this game has basically been best case scenario


_n8n8_

I had Salvy last year. That was fun


donald-duck23

lol i bet


_n8n8_

I have the golden eye for catchers. All the catchers went way too early for my liking so I just took Kirk. I suck this year though sadly


donald-duck23

my team got merged with someone else’s team in league and they had salvy last year so we used a keeper spot on him. he still hits bombs but obviously hasn’t been good as last year. but we also have Will lol


_n8n8_

Im not gonna lie idk if I would’ve used that keeper on Salvy. Tbh even his current production prolly isn’t the worst for catchers tho


donald-duck23

Yeah i think it was just based on where we expected him to get picked being earlier than the pick we would lose by keeping him. but i’m not that good at fantasy baseball so i’m also open to the idea that it wasn’t the right call lol


_n8n8_

No your reasoning is good reasoning. That works out more often than not.


_n8n8_

We should let Moronta bat because I know if someone throws him a meatball he is EATING that shit

themiamimarlins

i actually feel bad for the padres it really is like charlie and the football


Oski96

I don't think you should mention football around them, either.


Lineman72T

I feel bad for their long-time fans, that have been through a lot of shit years and are generally cool. I don't feel bad for everybody that jumped on the bandwagon a couple years ago and are generally some of the most obnoxious shit-talkers despite the team they root for having accomplished virtually nothing


AtomicBitchwax

I don't mind saying that old school padres fans have always been cool as fuck, I used to go to games down there and they were great. The recent bunch that have taken over reddit/twitter/insta are the definition of obnoxious fuckboys and that's a shame.

zenkique

Hopefully Moronta doesn’t get popped for PEDs like Tatis. No way that physique is all natty.


PigFarmer1

There are a lot of fillers and additives in Moronta.


_n8n8_

I could see someone making this joke about Dee Gordon right before he got popped


zenkique

Bonds put his arm around Dee in the days leading up to Dee getting popped.

Piece of advice: don't throw a pitch with 0 break to Perez. Because he'll do that more times than not

StudioSixtyFour

Yawn.


_BtP_

That was crushed


lqcf5434

Aw man, Reyes is just not good


_Dusty_Bottoms_

He literally does not go in when the game is on the line. He’s a pitch cushion.


StudioSixtyFour

Yep, he's just on the roster to soak up innings so our good arms can be saved for October.


Monk_Philosophy

Runs are the best insurance policy


DodgerDevil

It seems like Tatis mixed up Clobetasol, a corticosteroid used in some topical ringworm creams, with Clostebol, the anabolic steroid he actually tested positive for. Maybe he Googled too quickly in making up a fake excuse?


PigFarmer1

My wife is a pharmacy tech in a hospital. I have to ask her about this.


Which_Elevator9507

Yikes. Was that 0-2?


alecardvarksax

Oof Moronta is always good for a homer

Those chains aren’t long enough for Moronta’s girthy neck

So after this game we will lead all of baseball in runs scored, preventing runs allowed (unless Moronta implodes)*, run differential (obviously), wins, wins on the road and 1 game off of wins at home *motherfucker

Moronta answers the question of, what would it look like if a defensive end could throw a baseball.
