Episode Description

The Dodgers didn't just blow it; the Nationals played really, really well. But yes, the Dodgers also blew it - and Dave Roberts deserves some of the blame. What ties his controversial playoff pitching decisions from the past three years together? Also: are Clayton Kershaw's postseason struggles a thing, or a statistical anomaly? Plus a few sentences about the right way and wrong way to predict a playoff series (or: was Pesach trash talking when he predicted a Nationals sweep, or was it based on analysis?).
