Well I'm hoping for a Astros vs Nationals Workd Series, why because BOTH of their Spring Training are held here in West Palm Beach about a mile walk to the 12 fields from my house.
Now that the Nationals are in the World Series....here's a bit of trivia for you baseball nuts.
Name the ONLY team left in MLB that has NOT made it to the WS?

Juan Soto AJ Puk, I'll have to wait for next year now... Victor Robles Gleyber Torres Gavin Lux Cody Bellinger Corey Seager Kershaw Scherzer Strausberg Fernando Rodney, yes I like him, lol. Andrew Miller and see if he still has some magic. Everyone's favorite Molina Altuve Albies Acuna Jr Bregman Freeman Swanson Buehler Meadows Glasnow Verlander And that kid Alvarez
Play em and I'll watch. Gavin Lux is the one I'm curious the most about though.
So far on my list all the National guys are doing good. Can't believe I left of Kieboom and Turner... Don't think boom made the roster though? Astros guys are doing good too.

We are going to Astros ST next year and can’t wait!
Well do tell which games you’ll attend, I’ll try and be there as well. I’m so close on Friday’s or Sunday’s I think it is, they do fireworks and I can see them from my patio yard. When I’m there I’ll be wearing my ‘04 RedSox World Series #24 Manny Ramirez jersey or some other Boston jersey. It’s a fun place right in my backyard.

What bothers me also is an opposing fan being abused at a game...
So the Nats pulled it together. Is this because Bryce Harper is gone? Says a lot about him and the talent that the Phillies had and couldn't reach the playoffs.
Dave Martinez was probably a few more losses earlier in the season from being fired. Now they're this close to a WS appearance
The team had injuries early and the team really wasn't hitting.
Robles didn't hit all that great in the begining, Rendon turned it on later, Turner was hurt.
The whole team finally came around and started to play. I would expect the team to do much better next year.
Turner, Robles, Soto and Kieboom should be fun to watch next year w Rendon.
When has injuries and team not hitting save a manager's job. Rarely. Especially when he missed the playoffs with a playoff team.
You think they re-sign Rendon and Strasburg(When he opts out)?
Why on earth would you let the pitcher you drafted, played all his life for your team and will get in the HOF go when he's pitching great?
Same goes for Rendon.
I'd sign them both for another 5 years.
$$$ Rendon is going to get upwards of $200 million. Be interesting to see what Strasburg pulls in
They aren't paying Harper and if they lock in Rendon for another 5 years they still have Soto and Turner on the cheap for a few more too so it shouldn't be that bad.
Strasburg might get more than Rendon, lol.
Lol rendon is getting a whole lot more than 5 years
He'll be 31 come starting next season not 21.
He might get 7 but no way he gets offered 10. Those days are over for 30 YO's now.
Both Strasburg and Rendon are over 30.
He will get 5 to 7 years too. He's not 21.
Again, no one gets 10 year deals in their 30's... I haven't changed my position on age and contracts.

When I was a kid I wore my California Angels hat to a Yankees game and thought nothing of it. No one game me any grief for it either. I'm sure a CA hat today in the ballpark would be fine I mean it's not Boston right, LOL?!?

What's even dumber is when I said 5-7 to clarify and then clarified that 7 is closer to 5 and no one offers long term deals like that to a 31 yo anymore...
Pujols ruined it for everyone then the Cano deal was even worse than that, which is exactly why the Mets did the trade w Seattle because they are FANTASTIC at the art of negotiations, think Bonilla every July 1st.
I think there is much to be said about the common sense of deal length vs. age....and then about the reality of teams willing to overpay to have the first 1/2 or so of that player's deal @ high performance level.

We see it over and over...
Not anymore, see my examples.
All the 30YO that still have something to give get 3y deals now.
Howie Kendrick since turning 30 hasn't signed more than a 4 year deal.
Kershaw? 31 yo pitcher didn't want to see FA and signed a 3 year deal.
30 yo's aren't bad players but overpaying in the long run can prove drastically bad.

Though, could it be a combination of good pitching and cooler weather? I think so.
