    Astros still look like the team to beat.  Their pitching is unmatched and the hitting speaks for itself.

    No drama.  Lots of uneven games.  Brewers and astros swept, Los angeles won pretty convincingly.  If boston wins tonight without drama, id say that series was/is a colossal disappointment.

    The DS over the past few years have been really strong.

    Gotcha.  I'd agree with that.

    Yanks win tonight.

    Astros are the team to beat right now.  They have 4 all-stars on that team in Bregman, Altuve, Correa and Springer.  Riddick and Gurriel aren't bad by any means either.

    The other All-stars in their pitching staff are pretty damn good too.

    I actually want hem to  be 7 games but doing it this way changes the way the game is played and I appreciate that.  It makes the teams have to change things up.

    Agreed.  These 5 game series are ridiculous.  The season is already way too long...what's another couple games in the 1st round of the playoffs??

      not that you'd want to copy the interminable NBA playoffs, but they do three 7 gamers to even get to the Finals.

    5 game divisional round ftw. No need to drag the playoffs out more. Get the first round over with and get it down to the real contenders.

    The NBA season isn’t worth a crap til the conference finals anyway, sp who care what their postseason schedule looks like.

    I get it, but the defending champions should be in prime time. Just my $0.02.

    You mean the Dbacks title where they outscored the Yankees 37-14?  And does that mean the Giants title in 2014 is fraudulent?
  • How does MLB continue to let Angel Hernandez call playoff games???  The guy is a horrible umpire.  He filed that absurd lawsuit last year that he was getting passed over for a crew chief spot and postseason games because of race and then suddenly he is in the playoffs last year and again this year.  What a joke.

    did they? I'm bitter about that one. d-bags were going bankrupt and smilin' bud selig loaned them $25M so they could get schilling.

    didn't brenley win the WS in his first year as manager and then get canned? I know their  korean(?) closer blew ever save opportunity he had. johnson and schilling were the only reason they won.

    That's 2001 world series is one of the best world series ever.  That closer Kim blew 2 games in a row in the 9th in new york.  It was wild

    They were Co-MVPs but I wouldn't say they were the only reason.  Their bats had a lot to do with it.  If it weren't for Kim, it would've been a 4-1 series.

    and if Torre didn't have the infield in with Mariano on the mound the Yankees would have won g7

    If Mariano didn't sail that ball over second base into the outfield it would have been over too...

    That is a damn shame.  Pretty cool that he is switching to outfield though.

    He's good enough to be up now and his spots in the IF are blocked.  Would be fine with them trading one of the other guys for SP, but that is at a premium
