I'm enjoying it as a M's fan. Like how the Jays and Yanks will beat each other up for the next few days which should help the M's.
If they can keep beating Oakland they should be in good shape. Really this is like the playoffs coming a week early.

Like the Red Sox and Yankees last series?

We definitely had the A's number this season!

I don't like the Yanks, but them and the O's can really help out the M's.

I think we can safely say that the MLB playoffs start tonight because that's what the next week will be is playoff level baseball. Teams like the O's will want to play hard as their world series would be to eliminate a team. They did it to Boston in 2011.

The last week of the season has been the M's playoffs for the past 20 years!

The Dodgers have the 2nd best record in MLB and it is ridiculous that their entire season may come down to a single playoff game. Playoff seeding should be based on record, not division standing.

Well, it used to be second place teams didn't have a chance in playoffs regardless of records!

The M's always seem to surprise, I did not expect this team to compete for another 2/3 years so whatever happens this week it's a win for them in my opinion. The team in 2001 that won 116 with no superstars other then Ichiro who was a rookie is another example.

2016 was fun, until they lost game #163!

It used to be only the two teams with the best record in in the AL vs. NL. So I think divisions are important. Plus, that’s mostly who you play.

Padres collapse has greatly affected my mental health
You and me both. We went from one of the better records in the league, to now just hoping we can finish the season above .500. Been a very disappointing couple of months.

Yes, before 1995. It is the addition of a second Wild Card team added in 2012, that makes them only be able to have one game. Without that additional WC team, they would at least have a five game series, which would be more appropriate.

The A's second half collapse has killed my interest in watching baseball for the year. I'm fully focused on football, where the 49ers hopefully won't be so disappointing.

Losing Scherzer and then seeing the Dodgers get both him and Turner seemed to deflate them and they never really recovered. All the injuries to Tatis didn't help.

There's only one kind of drama that I love and need in my life... BASEBALL DRAMA!

Then perhaps you need to visit with my friend Bill.
Bill effing Shakespeare.

Yeah, I hear that. What a depressing and pathetic end to what started as a great season.
Let's hope Jayce Tingler is gone and there is some overhaul in staff. There is no excuse for them playing this badly.

Niner fan as well brotha. Do you hate the Packers as much as I do?

Today was a good day for M's fans! BoSox, Jays, and A's lose! M's now a 1/2 game behind the BoSox for the second AL WC spot with 4 games left! A's all but mathematically eliminated (3.5 behind BoSox with 4 games left and BoSox has 5 games left)!
