    If the Dodgers, Astros or Yankees win it all, no it does not count. Anyone else it counts though

    Thats like saying if Trout doesn’t get MVP whoever else wins it doesn’t count.

    I actually agree. Trout is the MVP every year. Same as Michael Jordan was every year. They can go ahead and give someone else the award, but in the words of Rob Manfred.....”it’s just a piece of metal”.

    The teams that lose will say it doesn't count

    The team that wins will say it does count.

    I'm going to guess your either a fan of the Nats, or a team that probably won't win.

    Nats fan.

    But come on, last year lowest point for Nats was 19-31 (not far from mark now) and it took a full season of games for them to fight to even get to WC. Short season now and a team can be hot for a few weeks and that could be enough to reach PS. Feel like this has all the markings to be an asterisk season.

    ..........also, want Nats to be proper WS champs 2 years running

    Ok, but all teams have the same footing, you could say that about any team that hasn't started hot.

    Yes it's a different season and it should be treated somewhat differently, but saying it doesn't count or that there is an asterisk on it is not the right way to treat it.

    You can acknowledge the circumstances without pooing on whatever team wins. If the Cardinals win (they won't), I'll be just as happy as if it was a regular season

    How would you propose it be treated? Would suggesting the trophy be smaller be too petty?

    Shortened season = shortened trophy

    You would have to go back to 1981 for a division winner that played less than 100 games. They split the season in two due to the strike, so you had two winners of each division.

    MLB has never played a regular season of less than 111 games so it does feel different for sure, no "dog days of summer" for the teams to go through.

    It is definitely unique but not sure how they could recognize that without seeming insulting.

    This season doesn’t really count right? WS champs are still Nats until next year.

    That’s a pretty dumb assessment....

    Meh, both MLBPA + owners had opportunity to have a longer season but wasted that on contract terms back-and-forth. You’ve got how many guys out right opting out of the season which is unprecedented.

    Then you start and stop and restart a spring training interrupting the standard flow of the players + teams and then jam as many games as possible into an accelerated schedule and god forbid teams miss games due to COVID then rescheduling and stacking even more games.

    I love baseball but this has just been pushed out for the purposes of revenue and the risk of personal health for countless seems unnecessary.

    I think reasonably they should have just scrapped the season and tried again next year.

    People are saying it’s totally rigged. So much corruption. There should be an armed rebellion. Unless I win, of course.

    It’s definitely a unique achievement/season, but it counts, regardless. Plus, SOMEONE has to go out and win it, right?

    I’m a homer that wants my Stros to win it all, of course. Haters be darned, but guarantee I’d humbly enjoy and accept another championship. 😉

    But if I were at the Las Vegas sportsbook, I’d def roll the dice with Slam Diego. (I’d still put money on my Stros, but I’d def drop some coinage on the Padres. Dark horse: CWS).

    The season will count, just cannot say a 60 game season will be respected. And as for the Nationals still champs? No, they will lose that after this year for sure. Pathetic showing. Got to be embarrassed. Maybe that shouldnt count lol. If they werent the former Expos I would be all for that.

    Really? I cannot even keep up woth who is playing for the Astros this year. So many rookies that arent ready because of other players injuries. Not to mention their best starter, best closer and best hitter are, and have been out for the season. Plus Brantley missed 2 weeks, Bregman was out forever, and Altuve out. All rookie bulpen at one point, lol. I wouldnt bet on them making the playoffs.

    If the Houston Asteriks can still keep the title after cheating. Surely, playing a 60 game season counts.

    Whoever wins this year is the 2020 is legit. In some respects it will be harder to win it. Best of 3, best of 5, best of 7, best of 7 after a 60 game sprint. You could almost flip a coin for the best of 3 and best of 5. Also, there are pretty much no off days until you clinch. So, you need more than 2 pitchers to win it and can’t just hang your hat on a couple bullpen arms.

    If you make it through that still standing, you get to fly that banner and deserve to.

    Edit: I originally thought there was a play in wx game. So edited my post. Still insane, though.

    It counts, but it just doesn't seem quite right. Just like the career HR record, and we all know how that went down.

    There are teams playing 3 double headers in a 2 weeks and 2 of those games being on the road but counting as home games. Just saying. Its crazy.

    Don't worry about the Astros. They're not winning anything if they don't know what pitch is coming. Yankees can't stay healthy. Stanton is getting tons of money to be on IL constantly. They will pay Judge which is a big mistake. Of course he is really good when healthy but he is never healthy either.

    Dodgers are really good. My pick to win the WS this year.
