God damnit. Bell, you’re from Dallas and your team has nothing to play for, you couldn’t go easy on us?

[u/Slight_Produce_8680 → u/sud0w00d0]

I’d love to make it to the playoffs, but is it really worth it if we needed someone to “go easy on us” to get there? Hopefully some run support can get us back in it!

[u/sud0w00d0 → u/Slight_Produce_8680]

Was mostly saying that tongue-in-cheek, of course I want to beat the other team without them going easy

And ultimately whether it’s “worth it” is moot because we don’t deserve to go to the playoffs whether we win this game or not in my opinion lol. For me it would be just as much about denying the Astros the division win and playoff appearance

[u/Slight_Produce_8680 → u/sud0w00d0]

Unfortunately I agree with you there
