Rays have 0 respect for the Yankees, walk Judge to face Stanton who has been hot


Leave the DP and chance for a K but you get the chance for a K with Judge as well

Devers may have saved the Red Sox season there. I know I wouldn’t want a one game playoff with the Jays.

As a Rays fan I’d rather face one of the Yankees or Red Sox anyways

Jays are scary hot and the rays are 1-6 against the Mariners on the season

Cash out here playing 4D chess to avoid embarrassment

Every time Seager gets hot, Trea Turner 1-ups him. Gonna be hard for the Dodgers to justify keeping Seager over Turner, all though I'm sure they could survive with either one lol

4 of the most iconic brands in sports will be in the league wild card round. The TV execs are ecstatic.

My picks:

Yankees
Dodgers

Also just a reminder to Padres fans. You will not be participating in the playoffs on account of being the 4th best team in California.

Trea Turner
.328/.375/.532/.902


Austin Riley
.302/.366/.529/.895


All of the #'s are compatible except for .BA and that's b/c Austin got off to a slow start. Plus people put too much stock in batting average. OPS and OPS+ is a much better indicator of a hitter's value.

Are we seeing maximum rig right now from Manfred to ensure the WC is Yankees vs Red Sox?

the dumping has been enjoyable

yankees have 2nd and 3rd, 1 out, and Rays don't walk the next batter to make home a force, and DP in order. They leave it 2nd and 3rd, 1 out and pitch to judge who has an infield single. game over

LOL they really want yankees in the playoffs, zero respect for them.



Jesus Christ.

Austin still meant more to his team's success than Turner. The Dodgers are fricking stacked everywhere and have better depth than some NFL teams.

The Braves lost their #1 starter, cleanup hitter, #5 hitter(D'arnaud), and their leadoff hitter who also happens to be arguably the best player in baseball and was leading the MVP race when he got hurt in Acuna. And Riley carried them for the bulk of the summer and kept them treading water until the rest of the offense caught up and we see the results.

Riley is the MVP.

The Dodgers win 106 games and are in the WC game against a team who is white-hot due to the Giants winning the most games in the over 100 year history of their franchise and may not make it to the divisional round.

Holy Christ.

Rooting like hell for them to get knocked out of the Wild Card game and whine about how unfair it is for them to have the 2nd most wins in the majors and only get 1 playoff game and the format needs to be changed.

9-10 vs the Giants and they lost the division by 1 game. Your Trolley Dodgers earned their fate.
