Tampa is an oddball city but they are living the sports dream right now.
Braves were 4-25 with RISP over the last three games. Too many bad strikeouts and some bad base running did them in more than pitching. While I do feel like this team is on the rise again like Electro said there's no promises they'll get this close again. No argument that LA was the better team but Atlanta couldn't finish when they had them on the ropes.

I’m sorry Numbers, I saw some Red Sox ball this season, I know it was awful. We had our own Frank Wren and then John Coppalella era here which led to some really stupid and painful organizational decisions. While none of the players were Mookie Betts, it made baseball generally uninteresting for a few years, combining that with this damn pandemic, I understand your frustration. I’m sure given the vast resources of Red Sox Ownership, they wont be down too long, and they’ll probably be closer to the Dodgers model rather than Tampa’s.

Just because numbers are fun, the Sox have the 5th highest winning percentage of the 2010s (872-748, behind NYY, LAD, WAS, and STL) though they're tied for 8th in most playoff appearances.
Going back a little further, the Sox were 2nd in the 2000s, 5th in the 1990s, and 6th in the 1980s, making the playoffs 16 of the 40 seasons (5th most during that period, again trailing only NYY, ATL, LAD, and STL). You'd have to go back to the 1950s to find a decade where Boston didn't make the playoffs at least once.
From 1980 to today they have the 2nd highest regular season winning percentage (trailing only NYY).
I think a lot of fans would take that kind of success in a heartbeat.
