Can we all put our differences aside and agree that it is just fricking terrible?

Agree but Cleveland can at least compete in the playoffs with a couple solid starters.

The AL West isn't much better. I miss the Astros playing in the NL Central and am looking forward to the new scheduling format.

They will. A 3 game series is a 3 game series whether you’re the 3 seed Cardinals or the 4 seed Braves. But yes, the AL central is horrific

you are aware that under the new playoff set up there is no difference between the wild card and worst division winner right?

Yeah Bieber and McKenzie are pretty solid starters to toss out in a 3 game wild card series





Can’t believe how shitty the white Sox have been. Have assumed all season they’d eventually get it together and make a run to win the division

Cleveland is young and scrappy and Ramirez just flat out LOVES the game.

Cal Quantrill is a legit ace as well. The Guardians are the youngest team in MLB. There are 8 minor league teams that have an average age thats older than the Guardians. Nobody...and i mean nobody...has a 7th, 8th and 9th rotation bullpen like the Guardians. If it gets to the 7th and the Tribe is winning...book it!! Nobody wants to play them in the post season. Steven Kwan should be AL rookie of the year. Francona is building something special with this team for the future!!

I would not want to run into Cleveland in a 3-game or 5-game series. They have enough pitching and Jose Ramirez is a bad man.

Let's pump the brakes now. He's a nice 3/4 starter that might be a 1/2 on a bad team. He's in there with guys like Jose Urquidy, Eric Lauer, Pablo Lopez, Joe Ryan.

Only difference in 3 seed champ v wc is they get all 3 games at home, in baseball I don't think Hf matters as much but of course you would rather have home games.

Cleveland like others have stated has pitching to win in a short series and one of the best pens in baseball.

Cal Quantrill is 12-0 in his last 12 starts at home. He is turning into a legit top end of the rotation guy. He has NASTY stuff!! Let me say this again...Steven Kwan should be AL rookie of the year. He is one of the best lead off hitters in ALL of MLB. His ability to get on base is incredible. This team is dangerous as any!!
