Roberts thought Darvish's stuff was good so he didn't mind him facing Springer a second time.

WTH?!

Dodgers really losing WS Game 7 at home I don't know the feeling

Bellinger struck out 17 times in the series.

That's hard to do.

Aaron Judge struck out that many times in a 5-game series.

So, the one shitty thing is.  Somehow the Angels have to deal with the Astros.  Seems like an unlikely challenge at least this coming season. 

Fun fact:

We were outscored by the Astros in head-to-head matchups this year by 1 run.

So....we have that

What’s funny is that Reagins doesn’t seem bad at all compared to fucking Jerry DiPoto

IDK. With Jerry now running things for a division rival, dude is the gift that keeps on giving now

Watching a bummed Steve Garvey and an angry Phil Shuman (had to look up his name).... on Fox 11.... has been amusing.  Jose Mota seems a bit uncomfortable. He should let them know about that old saying....

[CaliAngel]

I am just.

*deep breath*

I am just so goddamn happy the doyers did not win.

Like, I know a lot of you guys are from SoCal, but from those of you that aren't: Dodger fans are like the butthole of baseball fans. They're like Raider fans. I said this when the series started: doyer fans are already unbearable. And if they won this series, I can't even imagine how horrible they would be. This is why I am absolutely relieved they lost.

Don't get me wrong, I sport Halo caps all day every day.

But for now, I am going to buy an Astros cap, wear it proudly, and proclaim myself an Angels fan with a 'Stros cap. And if any doyer bum has anything to say, the Halos still have the World Series 2002 while the doyers are still waiting. I'm so happy to just have that for now.

And I look forward to the Halos kicking it in high gear with Trout, and Angel red will always be my home team.

At least we don't have to listen to Dodger fans now.

So you're on the bandwagon of the Astros.

Well, they never shut the fuck up really.  Whether it’s about Jackie Robinson and their breaking barriers bullshit.  Or Vin Scully, or their shit hole “blue heaven” stadium or how smart Friedman is, or about how they draw the most fans even though their stadium holds like 20k more people then most stadiums.   Or how money isn’t anything to them.  Or magic or anything doyers really.

So, we definitely will continue to hear their shit.  But mercifully, not about a World Series W.

I remember when Minute Maid had a ton of empty seats. Not anymore, sort of. Even this season, like when the Angels played them in September, there were still a ton of empty seats. I know that there was the hurricane and god bless those who were affected by it but still, I don't think Minute Maid is one of those stadiums that is filled with fans like Fenway, Wrigley, or Yankee Stadium.

I know I should not root for a team in our division, but seriously, from the bottom of my heart, thank you Astros.

You guys are fucking insane and re-writing history.  

Reagins was terrible don’t get me wrong, and no doubt he was the one that started the Angels organizational shit slide.  But Dipoto was next level fucking dog shit.  Literally everything he touched is trash. 

[Bull58]

Good for the Astros, first WS rings. You know Houston is partying like we did in 2002 and they have a good young team.The Astros are a thorn in our side but you have to admire the talent they have on their team. I tip my cap to them. And as for Reagin - Dipoto, both were shit, PERIOD, why are we arguing about who was shittier?

[Blarg]

Note to the Dodgers.

When you come back from adversity and win game six when the odds we're against you, step on their necks in game seven.

[Ohtaniland]

I think the Dodgers just saved our season. Bring on those pitchers and catchers!

[Stradling]

As great as this World Series was, it was also a glimpse into what it looks like when you make most of your pitching decisions based on analytics.  Roberts changed pitchers super early all series long. Hell even yesterday he pulls Darvish out after giving up the homer when there were two outs.  He did this with Darvish batting third the next half inning.  Let the guy finish the inning, no one was on base.  So then you bring in a guy for one batter (Morrow), when you’ve overused your pen all series.
