Rays finally get a guy on 3rd with less than 2 outs and strike out lmao

Those ABs were awful, no strategy, just hack.  They deserve to lose.  God this game is awffful.

These, uh... are not particularly good hitting teams. Especially by playoff standards.

Gonzalez finally ends it. My god, the series was won by scoring a whole 3 runs. 

That was a fun game to watch

Cleveland has great pitching but YEESH the Rays are not good.

OK Guardians enjoy getting swept by NYY.

That was fun!

Rays are terrible. They've been bad for a few weeks now. Baltimore could have provided better opposition than Tampa. 

Just happened to turn on the Mariners Jays game and saw the roll screen showing Guardians scoreless in the 15th?!!  Just figured I read it wrong ?

Cleveland has officially won more playoff series than the White Sox have in our WS “window”…..amazing

No longer scoreless.

FWIW I think the Sox would have blown the Rays out.

The Rays did not finish the year well and stayed cold.  Guardians pitching against Bronx Bombers next.

Scoring 1 run in 24 innings is a rough way for the Rays to go out.

Yankees also finished the year poorly. Cleveland has a shot, especially since the Yankees have been sitting at home for 5 days. The only real advantage of getting the bye is that the team from the first round can't throw their best pitcher in game 1. 

Yeah, the Sox didn't need a guy like Gausman.  Did you even entertain it at all Hahn?

I know you of all people know this, but there has been zero predictiveness to how teams play in September and how they end up doing in October.

I'm betting the Yankees have a tougher time than they usually do with the Twinkies.

Both the pitchers in Toronto today were available for the Sox to pick up.  This offseason is going to be dreadful folks.

Remember when Nightengale tweeted the Sox were interested in an "ace" like Robbie Ray & also Marcus Semien? Or supposed insiders claimed the Sox wanted Scherzer. That was the highlight of our off-season.

I don't think any team would have actually done this, but starting Ray in this series over George Kirby, given how RH heavy the Jays are, was probably a mistake.

Well it depends what your definition of interested is.  There's plenty of guys interested in Gisele since she's left Tom.
