Any Reds fans here? My Pirates are now 1-819 when losing by 9 runs or more. We'll take any accomplishment at all...

According to my highly accurate franchise the Dodgers will defeat the Blue Jays in 4.

Was trying that 6TB Willie Stargell moment and got an inside the parker with him (only counted as 2 bases) on my second AB lol. I was thinking to myself of all the homers….massive, majestic Stargell homers….I bet he NEVER got one that way lol.
PS yes I have video proof haha

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

None at all! One things for certain if they happen not to make it after all it certainly won’t be from lack of opportunities! Going head to head against the very team(s) that they’re neck and neck with should make for a great finish and will leave the odd team out with ZERO excuses

I got a feeling it may change again….Marlins play a double header against my hapless Mets while the Cubbies play a set against the Braves…Mariners look to have something else to say as well!
I seriously eat this stuff up! Baseball woooooooo! Gimme some PLAYOFFS BABY
PS anyone see EDC’s first career multi-homer game yesterday? He absolutely destroyed that second one! He made up for going a month without one with that sucker

Wow. That Cubs v Braves was incredible last night. Acuña got his 40/70 and showed why he’s the true MVP of 2023 with his incredibly clutch performance.
I still would rather see the Cubs make it than the Marlins but that’s not for me to decide. I love this stuff.
@Ericulous1_PSN we’re getting close to our official pool post, of which I hope you will author for us when the time comes buddy
PS Lindor hit 30/30 club last night and Senga notched his 200th K….not too shabby for a rookie huh lol!
PSS Sunday is Oct 1 - last day of the reg season

Holy mother of pearl did anyone catch the 9th inning of the Mariners v Rangers tonight? Win or go home for the M’s and looks like they ain’t ready to lie down just yet! WHAT a finish!
The playoffs this year are going to be dynamite!

Well mark my words, that will be a tops now moment for sure.
Also of note Houston/Toronto could still be eliminated before the playoffs, highly unlikely but i've seen stranger things happen.
If Toronto survives they may need to play Tampa Bay at most 8 times in a row, 3 games to close out the season and then a best of 5 series.... crazy
Edit... my bad wild card is only a 3 game series so 6 times not 8. Sorry about that.

Indeed! Heck I even heard wild a scenario tonight where the Mariners could still clinch their division haha it’s still up in the air. Texas sure can score runs but I believe they’ll crash and burn VERY early with that completely nonexistent bullpen I mean they are atrocious! I’d like to see the Ms make it I truly would but I’d rather have the Cubs in the playoffs as the Marlins as well.
We shall wait and see hey?

3 games to go, hang on this is where the fun starts lol. This may sound weird but i would be happy if the Cubs miss the playoffs this year, it's less stressful when your team is out and i don't want to be let down if say they somehow beat the Brewers just to lose to the Braves/Dodgers. Next year though watch out, these young Cubs have had a taste of what fall baseball could be like.

Right you are, my bad i jumped the gun there, i was probably thinking of the division series sorry about that. So they would only have to face Tampa a totaly of 6 times if that goes the distance.

It’s so exciting, ain’t it Sam my friend! I mean talk about scheduling wizardry! It’s going to make for such a weekend that I’m playing hookie from work today just to start my 3 day weekend of baseball ambrosia off properly! Heck I might have to play me some Show this morning to get ready….yeah…think I shall!

Hey all I just noticed that the MLB free game of the day is the Rangers v Seattle set for 10pm approx and let’s not forget about Friday Night Baseball on the Apple+ app if you have that also….I’ve not seen which games they’re covering (it’s usually 2 games) but with sooo many incredibly important games going on tonight (and the weekend!) I believe they would actually have to TRY to pick something crappy…hey sorta like what SDS has been pulling with these S4 land mines they’re placing for us all to step on/in
