Reading this thread without a working knowledge of the day's scores you'd think everyone was losing except the tribe. Which might be true...lol Texas but moreso the Rays if they cough it all up this late.

 

[Dominican Power]

You have arrived.

 

[Lambtron]

They do. That call at home yesterday was garbage.

That was when I sighed exasperatedly and stopped caring. This season sucks. Thankfully it's almost over.

JOSH HAMILTON REVENGE

Nice job taking out Darvish at 85 pitches, you dumbass, Washington.

 

[lazybones18]

Josh Fucking Hamilton, baby!

 

[darkside31337]

GO ANGELS

 

[Branduil]

Ron Washington is the worst person on earth.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Al Leiter is completely shredding Ron Washington on MLB Network for lifting Darvish

 

[Branduil]

Al Leiter is completely shredding Ron Washington on MLB Network for lifting Darvish

He deserves it. Stupidest manager in the league and it isn't even close. Multiple retard bunts today, pulling his ace after 85 pitches in the 6th inning. No non-player costs their team more wins than Ron Washington.

 

[cashman]

Season on the line and Washington wants Cotts pitching instead of Darvish.

 

[Dominican Power]

Rangers don't deserve to make the playoffs.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Soto just saved Ron Washington.

For now.

 

[Branduil]

Season on the line and Washington wants Cotts pitching instead of Darvish.

Ron Washington boners today:

1) Leonys bunting into a double play

2) Elvis leadoff bunt out

3) TAKING OUT YOUR STARTING PITCHER IN THE 6TH AT 84 PITCHES

Man I wish AJP wasn't such a slow ass.

 

[darkside31337]

Fucking Angels are useless.

 

[lazybones18]

Get that fucking pitcher off the mound, Angels!

 

[Lee Chaolan]

The Indians are in the Playoffs! DD

 

[Branduil]

The Rangers leave multiple runs on base again. They're just going to blow this lead in the next inning.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Off to the playoffs.

 

[BertramCooper]

WINDIANS

 

[alr1ght]

Hooray Indians!

(don't lose on Weds please)

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Thank you, Terry Francona! He's gotta be AL Manager of the year. from 68 wins to 92.

10 wins in a row to end the season! and they needed every single W!

 

[Branduil]

Evan "Michael Young MVP" Grant.

 

[newjeruse]

Dodgers vs. Braves will be glorious. I hope Puig hits a HR and walks around the bases.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Evan "Michael Young MVP" Grant.

Someone should Tweet him and asks if that means Darvish can't count on his MVP vote this year.

 

[KidA Seven]

Dodgers vs. Braves will be glorious. I hope Puig hits a HR and walks around the bases.

The potential for a brawl is very high.

 

[newjeruse]

Play-in game in Cleveland is sold out. Good.

Hey hey hey hey. That's it for 2013, and while it would've been nice to sneak into the playoffs, we can't complain too much.

The Royals finished ten over .500, best bullpen ERA in the AL since 1990, Holland set a new franchise record with 47 saves, Hosmer and Moose turned their offense around in the latter half and the Royals won 43 after the ASB, the most in MLB. AND we didn't get eliminated until the final week! If that disastrous month of May had just been a touch less so, we'd easily have made it.

So, even though this is it, it's tough not to see 2013 as a big success, and when the Royals return in the spring, they'll be a force to be reckoned with. Playoffs or bust!!

Now, who to root for in the playoffs? I suppose the Tribe is probably our next of kin, but I sure have a soft spot for the Pirates, too. I'd say those are my preference on each side.

 

[newjeruse]

Ranking the series based on which games will get prime time billing/network interest:

1. Dodgers/ Braves
2. AL Wild Card/ Red Sox
3. NL Wild Card/ Cardinals
4. Tigers/ Oakland

Cleveland and Pittsburgh World Series. #Believe

Also congrats on your first winning season in a long time. Would have loved if the AL Central could have had another WC team. You guys are dangerous, the division is going to be hell next year!

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Who is making the postseason thread this year?

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Who is making the postseason thread this year?

think someone from Pirates land

 

[Malvingt2]

are the Dodgers good on the road?

 

[Mr. Enigma]

are the Dodgers good on the road?

They had an amazing road winning streak this season. I think they won 14 or 15 straight on the road this year. 45-36 overall on the road. 7-9 in road games in September.

I see, thanks.

Medlen better be ready. War is coming to Atlanta.

 

[TheSadRanger]

Craig Gentry is really underrated. Would love to see him go full time before he's to old.

 

[lazybones18]

Welp, Angels gonna lose. Pulling for Tampa Bay to put the kibosh on Texas tomorrow

 

[Branduil]

Craig Gentry is really underrated. Would love to see him go full time before he's to old.

He's certainly a million times better than David Murphy.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

So the Yankees never put Mariano in CF during a game?

He said he didn't want to with his knees like they are.

This was the most exciting year of baseball I've witnessed in this city. Can't wait until next year. We just have to play it smart in the off-season, and we'll be looking at our first post-season since '85.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

So the Yankees never put Mariano in CF during a game?

Rivera requested not to play because he thought he couldn't play CF effectively. He also asked not to pitch because his elbow has been sore all month.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

He said he didn't want to with his knees like they are.

Ah, bummer. Would've been cool to see even if it was for a single inning.

 

[newjeruse]

Astros don't want dream season to end.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Yay, Texas! Looking like that tie-breaker game's gonna happen.

 

[weekend_warrior]

Astros don't want dream season to end.

This game could easily go to 25 innings before one of these teams score a run.

 

[Dominican Power]

Beltre with a last fuck you to The Angels.

 

[jakncoke]

The Pirates won 94 games this year. The Pittsburgh Pirates won 94 games. So surreal

 

[weekend_warrior]

Reynolds told me to STFU.

 

[Branduil]

I fricking love Ernesto Frieri.
