Originally posted by Niners99:Come on man. You are seriously reaching now. The Dodgers went 43-17 in the 60 game season. They outscored their opponents by 136 runs in those 60 games and then had to win 4 series in the post season. They also had no home field advantage in the final 3 series which they normally would have had. We can hate the Dodgers but its stupid to say they didnt deserve the title.

I am a Dodger hater but its laughable to discount what they did in last years postseason. They actually had to win an extra playoff series and didnt have the home field advantage that they normally would have in the post season. If the Giants had won the title last year I somehow doubt you would be singing this tune.
It was only a 60 game season. The 2019 champions wouldn't have even made the playoffs if the season had ended at 60 games. A Major League season is supposed to be a 162 game grind. Nobody was even tired in the postseason. There was no pressure packed road games with the crowd noise bearing down on the opposing pitcher. Regular season games were decided by automatic runners in extra innings, and 7 inning double headers. It was a complete joke of an exhibition.
I didn't even want this season to happen, so I was perfectly fine with the Giants missing the playoffs. I wanted no part of them winning a title that wasn't even real.
I was fine with the Giants missing the playoffs too because they were not good enough to be a playoff team in any season and knew they would get smoked. And I know damn well you wouldnt be saying the same thing if the Giants would have won it all. You would have been thrilled and you know it.
