MLB playoff thread

[1964cards]

Washington looks awful. Not the way you want to finish a season. It will be a long offseason unless there is a miracle finish.

[Ratsbuddy]

This one will probably be the end to Dusty Baker’s managing career. This job has John Farrell written all over it in 2018 unless there’s a stunning comeback in the late innings.

[NJ315]

9-6 Cubs

[LoganAlpha30X7]

9-7 Cubs…

[LoganAlpha30X7]

9-8 Cubs…

[NJ315]

9-8 Cubs

[BlackHillsCard]

How does the replay official make that call “as clear and convincing”? What a load of horse manure. All this time MLB is constantly preaching the replay has to be clear and convincing to rule on a call but then they go and do that?

[1964cards]

Ratsbuddy, I think you are right. This may well be the end for Dusty. A sad way to go out losing the way they did. It will be a long winter of soul searching in DC wondering what went wrong.

[Ratsbuddy]

BlackHills? What happened? What are you referring to?

And who starts Game One for the Cubs against Kershaw? I guess it will be Quintana.

Anybody but the Cubs………..

There’s 101 ways to lose a game and the Nats used most of them tonight.

[Onyxgem]

Nats are better than the Chokdians at GIVING away series that is for sure..now we have to listen to all the BS about the sCrUbs and Spankees

[bccran]

Should be 2 great series – NLCS and ALCS. Lots of good baseball. Looking forward to watching.

[Onyxgem]

better baseball would have been top 2 teams playing each other

[bccran]

Lots of excellent hitters and pitchers. Some of the best in MLB.
Should be 2 very entertaining series. Teams seem to be closely matched.

[NJ315]

Top two teams? Then no playoffs. Top record from each league in the WS.

[Cardinal in France]

I’ll buy that. Or at the very least, how about requiring teams to actually win something to get into the playoffs?

[Onyxgem]

I guess i don’t find the yankess very good or have that great of a team….more so the Indians once again choked once they got a big series lead…I’d much rather seen Indians vs Houston as both teams have more talent than the spankees.

[NJ315]

Well sometimes not so good teams win…2006 Cardinals?

[bccran]

The beauty of the playoffs. The key is getting in. Anything can happen once you’re in.

[Brian Walton]

Today’s odds to win the 2017 World Series, per Bovada.lv:

Los Angeles Dodgers 2/1
Houston Astros 9/4
Chicago Cubs 15/4
New York Yankees 15/4

[858booyah]

I wasn’t shocked the Nationals choked again. It’s what they do best.

[gscottar]

I hate to admit it but the Cubs are so resilient it wouldn’t surprise me to see them win it all again. They seem to always find a way and just refuse to lose.

[bccran]

The fun thing about watching the playoffs is enjoying seeing players that you haven’t seen much during the season – guys like Altuve, Springer, Correa, etc.

[BlackHillsCard]

Astros win 2-1. Yankees made it interesting with a 2-out HR in the top of the 9th
