As a Chicago fan who came into adulthood after the MJ era (I was 12 in '98), It's so weird following a team that has continued success. I'm ready for another postseason run.

it will be even weirder in a year or two if the white sox rebuild goes according to plan and there are two great chicago teams at the same time.

I can't think of to many times both the white sox and cubs made it to the playoffs.

Terrible Terry Collins doesn't want to retire.

I applaud the man's stance on wanting to work until he's 70, but he's had a nice, long run as the Mets' manager and it's time for him to do something else.

http://nypost.com/2017/09/27/terry-collins-im-not-retiring-after-mets-season/

Let Collins take tickets, fire the team trainers (into outer space), and make some kind of financial effort to improve this team.

If the Mets can't be good next year, at least they should be healthy and managed by someone new.

Nats vs Cubs in NLDS

Game 1: 10/6 at WSH
Game 2: 10/7 at WSH
Game 3: 10/9 at CHI
Game 4: 10/10 at CHI
Game 5: 10/12 at WSH

The Nats will cement their legacy as MLB's Jobbers to the Stars.

Nats taking the L that series.
Congrats to Twins Gaf what a fucking turnaround.

 

[chicagocubsfan]

I gotta weird feeling La Stella might start a DD game lol. I distinctly remember him hitting Scherzer well.

RIP Halos (my team) and Royals (wife's team)

We're on the Tribe bandwagon for the post-season.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Someone take the 2017 Padres out back behind the barn and put them out of their misery. It's cruel and inhumane to let this continue.

 

[TheSecondSpitter]

The only team in shittier state than the Mets in terms of ownership not having a clue are the Halos.

 

[Chuck]

I hope the Orioles lose the rest of season to get that better draft pick. Also I hope people get fired.

 

[Beckx]

Imagine if the Nats hadn't given us 5 years of Rivero to get 2 months of Melancon.

Thanks Nats!

Can't fire Angelos.

 

[Reckless Abandon]

God, Cody Allen is such trash. He will cost the Indians big time in the playoffs.

I do have some concern with him and Shaw going into the playoffs. Both have looked shakey lately.

I've always felt that way about Shaw, though, but for some reason every baseball journalist loves talking about how underrated he is. And Tito seems to love him. Trust in Tito I guess.

 

[TheSecondSpitter]

Can't fire Angelos.

Manfred can.

 

[Beckx]

Can't fire Angelos.

does he still own the Nats' TV rights? what a screw job that was.

Has only happened twice: 1906 and 2008. I can't wait until '19-'22 or so when there'll be chances for it to happen again (keeping the dream of a crosstown WS alive), will be chaos

 

[Sephzilla]

Welp, Brewers need to win out and the Rockies need to lose out in order to make the playoffs. It's not entirely out of the realm of possibility since the Rockies end the year against the Dodgers, but I don't see the Brewers sweeping the Cardinals

 

[eBay Huckster]

White Sox better do their damn job in this final series.

red sox better do their damn job and win the next two games in a row

 

[Malo]

red sox better do their damn job and lose at least 3 out of 4

ftfy

Would love for the Stanks to blow a game, preferably two.

 

[eBay Huckster]

ftfy

okay fine, they can win one of these and then lose out

 

[zulux21]

I mean they will blow one on oct 3rd.

that's all that really matters

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Go NL Wildcard team.

You're good people.

Cubs had theirs last year, now it's our turn. <3

Dodgers have nothing to play for now so your Brewers are pretty much toast.

You're good people.

Cubs had theirs last year, now it's our turn. <3

If the Cubs lose this playoff, I hope its against the Tribe in the World Series.

 

[Windu]

Diamondbacks Indians World Series. Indians will still lose.

 

[Nomadic Sparks]

Cards management needs to fire Matheny and tell fans that next year is a rebuilding year
The mounds of salt from my fellow cardinals fans is too much for me

 

[Beckx]

Rooting for a Dodgers Yankees series. Absolutely would be the most exciting.

 

[jman2050]

Diamondbacks Indians World Series. Indians will still lose.

Nah it's gotta be the Rockies. Losing to teams that have never won/haven't won in multiple decades (or a century) is more the Indians' style.

EDIT - Nationals would fit the bill too.

I always knew you were good people.

Matt Cain gonna retire after his last start on Saturday &#128557;&#128557;&#128557;

Good memories.

 

[Chris R]

Hoping the Dodgers win the NL if the Rockies or Sneks can't.

But they better take 7 games in the NLCS.

 

[Tall4Life]

A Red Sox/Cubs WS would be the best. Two teams with massive WS droughts trying to finally win again.

 

[gamz]

That would be great for baseball ratings. Although a rematch with Cleveland would be cool too. I'm so curious to see how this first series pans out.

 

[TheSecondSpitter]

For the love of humanity please be Injuns and Snakes

Rooting for a Dodgers Yankees series. Absolutely would be the most exciting.

This would be analogous to coming home and finding your wife in bed with CC Sabathia and Chase Utley at the same time.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Dodgers Indians World Series. Indians with the win! Keep busting them droughts

 

[SRTtoZ]

AND BELLY TO BELLY

 

[blackaroni]

Off to a good start.

 

[Zetta]

So fun to watch Judge bat.... come on Houston rock Boston.

Damnit, you didn't answer the meme call I asked for in yesterday's post.

Saturday you need to unleash the Cain memes.

Home field through World Series

True, hadn't considered that.

Doyers making it past the NLCS, that's a good one!
