    Kinda feels like Mets just laid down their bats for game 2.

    It's over for the Dbacks.

    Shitty situation for them.

    The Astros are something this time of year, but this Skubal kid is the biggest thing out of Kingman, Az since Michael Fortier. Kid seems tough as nails, but we will see in playoffs. I have a feeling he will show up. Feels like some type of first 5 game.

    r.i.p. Pete Rose - (Charlie Hustle) a truly great player who has a checkered legacy who died yesterday

    from the article:

    "For millions of baseball fans, Rose will be known mainly for a number, 4,256, his total of hits, the most for any player in the history of the game. But he was a deeply compromised champion."

    he was banned from the MLB in 1989 for illegal gambling including on baseball - he is also ineligible for the Hall of Fame

    Rose later admitted he bet on MLB games but never against his own team

    These SGP profit boosts are the devil, but they don't have high limits, so just fun sweats. Just a bet that Astros get to the bullpen.

    Run Line: HOU Astros -1.5
    DET Tigers @ HOU Astros
    Total Hits by the Player - Including Extra Innings (Listed player must be in starting lineup for bets to stand): Altuve, Jose - Over 0.5
    DET Tigers @ HOU Astros
    Odds:
    +294

    Clearly making it through the gauntlet of the AL Central produced battle-hardened teams that these weaker divisions can't compete with.

    I’m cheering for all 3. Clearly Tribe is the dream, but there are no enemies in the welfare division. We hate the rich.

    I bet so much baseball today. All little shit but I lost every inning bet and was down like $500. Was pissed and fired $500 on o.5 8th inning in Mets/Brewers and closed my app with like a 1-20 record for the day and, I kid you not, up .52 cents. Felt better than the winning days.

    Can I say again that the wildcard series is just plain weird?

    Why have the lower seeded team play 0 games at home and 3 on the road? What's the point? If the travel for 1-1-1 is too burdensome, why not make it 1-2 or 2-1? Bizarre.

    Even more bizarre is the fact that both visiting AL teams swept it 2-0, and the Mets were on the way to doing the same until blowing the lead late.

    The only higher seeded home team to dominate was the Padres, but that was mainly because the Braves were injured and tired.

    Took a gander at game 1 NLDS tickets for the Dodgers. Expensive!

    Right now the seats I like to buy are about $350/each. No thanks. But I'll wait this out... perhaps 6-24 hours before the game, it will crash. I'll have Ben on alert.

    Said it before.

    Season is too long.

    Too many playoff teams

    Playoff format get increasing longer. November baseball is idiotic. Kids dialed out of baseball months ago.

    Players have a rhythm and players benefit from play not going cold for a week plus. Dumb

    The Glasnow and Musgrove blow ups right at the finish line speaks volumes but everyone is deaf. THE RESULT IS NOT ENTERTAINING AND THEREFORE NOT GOOD FOR BASEBALL.

    Ploppies will be knee deep in football and I’ll be glued to hockey in November. tgull will be watching the Trump Super Bowl

    Milwaukee probably going to pull it out despite almost getting swept 2-0 in the series. 0-0 game, back-to-back homers in the 7th.

    Would've been unfair to the Dodgers if the Mets won, as they'd be facing the team with the better record in the NLDS, despite finishing with the best record. Remember when the Dodgers and Giants faced each other in the FIRST ROUND despite Dodgers having 106 wins and Giants 107? Rdiciulous.

    As it stands, the Brewers and Padres finished with the same record. Padres better though.

    I figured out why Dodgers NLDS tickets so expensive, though. It's because they made the playoffs for 12 straight seasons... but something is different this time. So people were bored of the NLDS through 2023, but.... there's a certain player on the team who wasn't there in prior years.

    Look around sports in general, ticket prices are way up, even on the resale market. For all the talk of money being tight and inflation people are buying sports tickets. NFL prices are crazy especially for the teams that have larger fan bases and travel well.

    In your case you also have SD a short drive away so both fan bases are buying tickets. Phillies tickets for this weekend are over $300 to just stand in the outfield. Add in the fees and you see the money people are willing to spend.

    LAD Flaherty pulled game one for Yamamoto

    The Sinking of Battleship Yamato is one of the most significant events in the history of naval warfare.

    Looks like I jinxed the Brewers, who are becoming the new Dodgers of the postseason.


    I want to see the Mets lose just to put an end to the annoying orange OMG thing.

    With that said, Dodgers match up better against the Mets than the Phillies. But they gotta beat the Padres for me to even think about that.

    Road teams so far are 6-3 in the 2024 postseason, and all 6 wins have been as dogs.

    Gotta love the Minnesota Twins completely crashing their season in order to help make this happen.
