frick a ratings idk why anyone cares. Watch what you want to don’t watch what you don’t want. Why would anyone care that not as many people are watching something?

This is a great matchup. Contrasting styles, big time position players, pitchers that are great looking to introduce themselves to the rest of the world two big cities that are going to pack their stadiums out. Can’t wait to watch

This is going to be a fun series. Tons of young talent on both sides.

Who gives a shite about ratings or big markets

These teams took radically different paths from 100 losses to the World Series. Rangers spent a half billion on free agents, Dbacks did it organically with a roster of mostly home growns that got hot at the right time.


Their highest paid player is....Madison Bumgarner who they released months ago


On the current roster it's Marte at 11 million.

I’m sure MLB cares given, you know, it’s a business.

No one is saying don’t watch the series just because it will (likely) draw relatively little national interest. No one is saying it can’t be a great series (1991 was a classic WS between two, at the time, relatively small market teams with little championship history) They are just pointing out that the matchup likely won’t generate much national interest. It’s not a personal attack against you.

I don’t necessarily want to see a Yankees v Dodgers WS. But you can’t deny that would be a dream matchup for the business of MLB.

Amen. I heard the same shite before the Stanley Cup Finals last year. It makes no difference to me what others watch or don't watch. What the frick else is on TV that is must watch that can't be seen 360 other nights a year? If you want the game to grow, it can't be the big market teams that win every year. I actually like the unpredictability. I already know the Chiefs will likely be in the Super Bowl again. Or the Warriors in the NBA Finals again. Yawn.
