No Yankees, Mets or Red Sox......
Or Cardinals
Or Pirates. I'm sure they should be lumped in with this group somehow.

@BxnnyMxn__PSN said in Playoffs are getting close:
I don’t think there’s anyone on the Oith that will be able to predict this AL side of the bracket. Maybe no until we have a few days left lol. Three days ago we had the Mariners here now we got the Rangers and it’ll prob flip flop every other day until we get to the wire
I had to double check that the Yanks and RedSox are still technically alive but the odds are incredibly slim for them and I expect the plug to be pulled for them officially any day now. Now they’re battling to see who will get last place. What a division the AL East has been this year and how wild will it be to see if it turns out being the first division where everyone finishes above .500
My only prediction is at least 2 of the teams with a bye round will get bounced due to sitting around and not playing for almost a week.

I saw this today on mlb. I’ll link the article below it. I just can’t wait to see who ends up making it. Could this be the year for the Mariners? Will it be the Braves who might just end up being the first club ever to slug .500 as a team (think about that) or perhaps a team that’s about to make an epic run heck who knows I just can’t wait to see

The slugging percentage would be great but in all fairness up until last season for everyone else not in the AL from 1973-1996 pitchers dragged down team slugging percentage.
Here’s the latest

Hope the Dodgers learned a lesson last year on how to avoid getting rusty by not playing for a week.

Here’s the latest
Houston, Atlanta and LA are normal to see leading a division, Baltimore just looks weird though lol and Miami in a playoff position should scare the other teams, the 2 times the Marlins have made the playoffs it was as a wild card team, they won the world series both times.

Miami made it a 3rd time in 2020, lost in the DS round.
I kinda think that it's the Phillies that are being looked at apprehensively,because of last year.( though the braves and fans are probably both dreading and very excited for it) -

Definitely going to be a top contender with that incredible pitching staff and so much talent. I just cannot wait to see how it all pans out

Also wrote that 3 days ago, loses in 6 of there last 7 games have all but sunk the Cubs playoff hopes. Seriously the worst time to go into a slump.

I’m just worried sick the Cubbies are going to mess around and blow it. With my team out of it I decided I’m going to pull for them and the mariners in the post season but really just can’t wait to see…heck last I checked there was the potential for at least one of the wc slots to come down to a single game playoff and possibly even two. Hmmm I should check this again a lot can change (and HAS!) in a week.
Man I wish The Show was this fun to think and talk about once again I just hate how things are going I’ve only played a few hours of conquest since S4 I’m sad to report
