Default Re: Which baseball \'choking\' scenario is worse?

[ QUOTE ]
Blowing a big lead (say 7-10 games) with 4 weeks left or so is bigger.

In a short series there will be more variance.

[/ QUOTE ]

Losing 3-4 games to an evenly matched squad, with 2 on the road is semi-standard.

Losing 6 of 7 at home to 3 vastly inferior, losing teams including the worst team in the NL or close to it, plus all the other losses is inexcusable.
