I'm not even betting against them.
The win is not worth it to me.

I am positive Yordons team meeting will inspire then reel off winning finish.

So if we somehow made postseason, looks like we’d face 2nd place in Central (currently ChiSox who are 1 game back) in a 3 game series, then winner of that would play Cleveland in ALDS?
Houston/Texas/ChiSox/Cleveland are all similar caliber of teams so would be a pretty wide open path to the ALCS
As usual, it’ll be whoever gets hot at the right time
Would be gross to see this Rangers team in the ALCS

Originally I was worried they'd get hot, do well in the playoffs and then keep Espada but then I remembered that Crane fired the GM last time they won the World Series.

The bracketing is so stupid. The clear 3 best teams are all on one side and 3 dogshit teams are on the other side. But I don't have a solution as to how to re-seed it.
The NL actually works out ok. It is just one of those things that the 3 best AL teams are all in the same division.
One of the Guardians, Astros, White Sox, or Rangers is guaranteed to be in the ALCS. Scary.

The new playoff system is just dreadful. They’ll add at least one, I can see two, teams per league also when they expand in a few years. It’s fricking stupid
The four teams per league was perfect

They can't help themselves. Gotta chase that next dollar, no matter what.
MLB is the most exclusive postseason of the major leagues and there could easily be a sub .500 team make the playoffs. What a joke.

Yeah, the old format wouldn’t have prevented a Cleveland Texas mediocre division series. This year is also just weird. But their win totals would have also been inflated a bit under the old schedule

Seems that all the big four professional leagues, along with college football, just continue to devalue the regular season. There is zero reason to play 162 games if more than half the teams in the league end up in the playoffs.
Surely MLB is headed in that direction.

Miss the days when only division winners got in. Not old enough to be around when you had to win the league and were in the World Series.
Much better than wild cards and interleague series for contenders in the final week of the season.

I will say this, there is an opportunity to sort of fix some of this with expansion. When they go to 32 teams, you could go to 8 team divisions. I realize they'll still let way too many teams in, but at least it does away with the 3rd division winner that's really just a glorified wild card team.
They won't do this, but I wish they would. It would make the division races a little more intriguing IMO.

All my years as an Astros fan (and I’m up there so it’s a bunch), I can’t imagine not being totally immersed in the last week of the season when we’re only one game out of first. It’s amazing how disinterested I am this year. I’ll check the scores and root for the Stros, but nothing like I think I should.

It's not fun rooting for a ship adrift that needs a hurricane to push it to shore, much less to The Promised Land.
