VOUCH THREAD! If we’ve ever made a card deal, leave some feedback for me here (please and thanks):

The comments section omg. How is this still up

My new best (and favorite card). 🙌

A terrifying success story in four parts @CardPurchaser

This. All the pitching decisions were magnified 10x by not being able to score runs. When your team can’t hit, and it feels like you need zeros every innings from everyone on the staff to have a chance, the issue is clearly a mediocre (or worse) offense.

I went into this series with respect and even a little fondness for the Rays. That Caminero three-minute home run trot ended that shit in a hurry. Brewers in 4.

(The Dolans just lucked into a lockout and a new excuse to not put an entire postseason of extra ticket revenue toward payroll.)

3-1 and it feels like 30-1.

Good baseball teams don’t make their fans feel like the game is over when it’s 3-0 in the 5th. This offense still sucks. We’ve done a lot of mental gymnastics about it this season but the proof is in the pudding. We can’t hit well enough.

“at some point” THAT POINT IS 2028 IF YOU LOSE THIS ONE STEPHEN

I mean, Shawn Armstrong to Tim Herrin to Matt Festa. WHAT COULD GO WRONG

It’s almost like a bullpen game and then a game in which you relied too much on a rookie starter and then another bullpen game is a bad strategy in the ALCS. Who knew.

I love Stephen Vogt and I’ll always give him the benefit of the doubt (which he has absolutely earned). That said, I think he managed this game like a punt game instead of an opportunity (after the postponement) to put his best nine on the field all game and go for the kill.

There’s the Matt Festa we’ve been waiting all postseason to see
