    Yordan is on fire!!!!!
    I should have bought a bunch of his cards... Now I'll regret it...
    I have one of his rookie cards. 

    Game 3 in Seattle will be nuts. Their crowd is going to be amped up big time & it should be a blast to watch.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    I did quite a few games in the Kingdome back in the day, fun place to see a game.  I know it's different now...

    I don’t think a few ALDS HRs are going to make him mickey mantle. I don’t think Cody Ross cards skyrocketed.

    Well comparing Cody Ross to Alvarez is not even a close comparison.  In the card world when someone gets hot the masses take notice.  It's not like Alvarez is a chump.  Dude can play.

    His prices have already started to creep up.  I understand the market Wobbs.

    Alvarez & Ross aren't the same player at all.

    Congrats to the teams that have won. Not sure how much sense baseball makes, with a season double the length of the other ‘daily’ sports and teams get bounced in shorter series than the other team sports, in best of threes and fives, when hockey and basketball you need four wins to bounce out the top teams.

    With all the 100 win teams out in the NL, what is the point of such a long season besides selling a few more tickets? If MLB wants an expanded playoff then do it right.

     I say go back to 154 games and make all playoff advancement at least a best of seven. Not sure it’d matter with teams getting hot like SD and Philly, but it’s right now a very bizarre system. (Yes my team won 100 but we all know they s^ck!)

    Braves won 101 games this year. Everyone seems to forget they only won 88 last year, when they actually won a title. And baseball is still the hardest sport to make the playoffs. Getting a bye from playing the WC is a pretty big payoff. But I'd say the reward of being the best (specifically the #1 seed) isn't good enough.

    There's no way the format changes, especially if they want more teams in the playoffs. Parity keeps the overall sport more engaged. But I'll say if they add anymore teams I don't think logistically there's anyway they can do so without shortening the season. 

    I do think the LDS should be 7 games though.

    I like what they did this year and adding 2 games to LDS would be better.

    here’s who I want to win the WS, from most wanted to least:

    guardians, - last won one in 1948. I like their pudgy slugger. francona is a good dude.

    astros - yes, bregman is annoying but dusty deserves one. plus, I’ll always have a soft spot in my heart for what they did to the d**gers.

    blue jays - other than bichette’s kid, I like them.

    mariners - good story but I do get tired of the “we KNOW griffey was clean.” you don’t KNOW shit.

    rays - I guess….but they have no fans and TB really doesn’t need another title.

    braves - just to see freddie cry some more. but I really do hate their tomahawk chopping fans and an organization that moves to the suburbs just because their fanbase might be a little too “urban.”

    phillies - nothing against them but, oh, our “philly guys.”

    mets - like the team; can’t stand their “smartest guy in the room” manager. he’s right up there with maddon and TLR.

    cardinals - don’t think I can take any more poo holes slurpage.

    yankees - cliffy is a cool dude but they can stay at “27, bro.” plus, boone is annoying.

    padres - fuck that paid for team.

    LA cocksuckers - where do I start? they’ve been trying to buy a ring since 1988. it’s the LA way (rams, lakers). a totally hateable lineup, with the exception of kershaw. j. turner, t. turner, muncy, taylor, bellinger, kimbrel, may are all assholes. mookie and freddie are only OK because they didn’t come up in the system. speaking of mookie, a special “FUCK YOU!” to the red sox for continually sending your stars to LA. shitty, bandwagon fanbase. please, please, please let the 34 year drought continue.
    time to re-seed:

    from most wanted to least:

    guardians

    phillies

    astros

    padres

    yankees

    did I see kershaw crying? I sure hope so. maybe ernie has a meme for that.

    7 game LDS makes sense to me.

    Not true, at least for me.  7 games is what I always think of for a proper series....and I don't care about the so called best teams winning.  F the Dodgers, big time!  :)
