hoping for some calming words, I really wanted nothing more then 1 win in the playoffs. Most people would call me a negative person cause they saw us winning the WS but i really wanted nothing more then 1 playoff win and a happy night.

Not sure I agree with the decision to pitch Marmol here

…It is too early.

If we come back and take the lead or tie the score, we are going to depend on Howry or something.

we still have shark and wood.

We need to keep them at 3 so we can hopefully get some of this back.
