    *** OFFICIAL *** 2017 MLB Playoffs Thread

    Let's do this.

    As I write the thread, Houston is up 2-0 in their series against Boston, Cleveland is up 1-0 and tied in the 10th inning agaist NY.

    Cubs/Nationals tied 0-0 in the 6th in Game 1.

    Dodgers starting tonight at 7:30pm.

    I have a live bet on the Indians and really need them to get out of this jam...

    This is such a weird game.

    First an Indians batter is awarded second on a bad throw due to the cameraman blocking it, and then a Yankees runner makes 2nd on a horrible Indians overthrow, but gets picked off 2nd in a super-close and initially-ruled-safe play.

    Nationals are banged up and will probably fold to the Cubs.

    Diamondbacks thrown out of sync by having to use a million pitchers in wildcard game, and it already shows. Who will they even start tomorrow? Their top 4 starters have all been used either Wednesday or today.

    Who starts tomorrow? Pat Corbin? Yeah, good luck with that.




    Provided Dodgers/Cubs rematch in NLCS, Dodgers will pound them this time. 2017 Cubs are not the 2016 Cubs.

    So tired of Grandal/Granderson being automatic outs, though.

    Good thing Taylor/Seager/Turner/Bellinger/Puig seem to be on point.

    Also Astros/Indians is gonna be a pretty epic series.

    Two excellent teams.

    Nobody talking about Astros because all of the AL attention is on the Indians.

    Dodgers got this game tonight in the bag pending a miracle comeback but what a pickup the Dbacks got landing JD Martinez. He's good for a homer like every other game.

    Boy Kershaw and these HR is really worrying me.

    They probably hold on to win this game, but giving up 4 HR in his first postseason outing of 2017 isn't good.

    People starting to boo Granderson and Grandal. They both failed to get Puig in from 3rd with 0 out.

    What is with all of these garbage commercials on TBS during the game?

    I feel like I'm watching a local station at 3am. They can't get any real sponsors? Or is this what kicks in late at night? So odd.

    Are you kidding me?

    Hendricks was inconsistent this year. Good overall numbers, but not nearly as good as last year, and he wasn't at all dominant. He tended to skate through 5-6 innings, strike out maybe 4, and then get the hook.

    especially with what we know about kershaw in the past, I have to agree here. shout out to the yankees blowing it too but I dunno who I hate more between the two so didn't watch it.

    I won a lottery from the astros to buy playoff tickets, Thinking about scalping the weekday games and going on the weekend.

    If the astros make the series I hope I get a shot.

    Same old playoff Kershaw. Same 7th inning playoff Kershaw too.

    Give him credit for not allowing more men on base. Bushel of solo homers. I guess that's something

    He'll have another playoff outing but no one has any reason to expect anything different from the planet's greatest pitcher.

    Picture playoff Bumgarner if you are visually oriented.

    Weathered a lot of regular season nonsense to be proven right again.
