I am very happy that the Rangers have to go play an unexpected 3 game series in Tampa that they did not expect.

 Probably would've been memorably historic if all three teams were hot and racing one another instead of all three falling down 25 consecutive flights of stairs for a month

aBagorn posted:Phillies will either flame out in the WC or repeat as NL champs there's no in between IMO they're losing both games and it'll be over very quickly. They're a good bad team in that I'm not generally worried about their offense, but their pitching sucks and has the biggest chance of catching up with them when it matters most. I don't trust a single guy to not blow up in the 4th or 5th inning, and your supposedly second best pitcher seems to give up a guaranteed dinger just about every time he starts. So even if they do win the WC, Atlanta will destroy their weaker starters. I'd obviously really love to be wrong but I just don't see it happening this year, and they should 100% go after the Yamamoto guy in the offseason if he's as good as people say, along with fixing the bullpen.

I'd rather the M's Brant Brown themselves out of a title than never having been to the World Series. Edit: Kevlar v2.0 posted:Did everyone forget that the Cubs still made the postseason after Brant Brown's error? Not at all. I'd just still rather the M's be "catch this flyball and you win the World Series" away from winning only to have Dave Niehaus rise from the dead to shout NOOOOOOO than their current status as the only team to never even get there. Edit 2 - Change it to "Luis Castillo" if anyone would like. Same difference. Just not as well known. Edit again?! - The 2nd baseman, NOT the pitcher. Sheesh.

zoux posted:Would you rather your team get swept out of the WC/DS or eventually lose in a seven game WS? If it's guaranteed one or the other? Maybe the WC. I'm not sure if they'll have the same level of urgency to make a major signing in the latter scenario (i.e. Turner last offseason, Yamamoto this offseason). Their payroll is obviously really high so maybe it doesn't matter either way. The latter scenario at least shows last year wasn't a total fluke, but losing four championships within a year would suck unbelievable amounts of rear end.

would like this Braves team to come away with some silverware but if not at least lose to somebody cool and not a division rival you’ve dominated all year again (absolutely sweating the NLDS once more)

Which is to say, Twins fans are approaching considering human sacrifice to not get swept again. Anyone who'd ever say getting swept out of the playoffs is preferable is mad.

I refuse to be afraid of the goddamn Marlins. This Phillies roster, in this stadium, vs a flukish Marlins team that cratered in the 2nd half. I know the Phillies have struggled vs the Marlins, but still It's the Marlins
