What happened: Analysts David Vassegh and Eduardo Perez joined Buster Olney to evaluate the Los Angeles Dodgers' failed three-peat bid following their National League Championship Series elimination. The discussion also covered Petey Halpin and bullpen management in the American League Championship Series.

Why it matters: Elimination forces immediate offseason roster questions for Los Angeles after falling short of a third straight title. Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Brewers club Peter Moylan ranked as the National League's most dangerous advances to the World Series with its first league crown since 1982.

What to watch: Los Angeles enters its offseason evaluation process while the American League Championship Series continues toward determining Milwaukee's World Series opponent.
