MLB Playoff Pool
-
ALCS game one about to begin in about an hour. This should prove to be a fun one to watch!
-
The Show is about to go on, and the field is set. We still have more room in the grid if anyone wants to add their predictions! The Phillies are the NL favorite pick, while the AL is a toss. There should be some great baseball coming up.
-
Not so sure I can agree. There hasn’t been great baseball in the postseason so far.

Maaaaaannnnn, I'm trying to be optimistic for once in my life...

The pool chart has been updated. AL and NL both play tomorrow. The Rangers started out hot by shutting out the Astros. Altuve forgetting to step on 2B when going back was not like him. I was surprised. Carter was awesome in LF tonight.

Btw how about my fellow Tennessean Evan Carter? He made a huge play last night that, had he not done so, well it would’ve hurt them pretty bad. Montgomery looked good in the mound as well. Texas has all the goods….imagine….just imagine had they been able to keep everyone healthy going into the postseason! I know, all teams have suffered untimely injuries but to lose two aces from your staff…ouchie. They’ve done incredibly well but I still say advantage belongs to the astros right now.

I'm anxious to see Evan Carter in action next year. He's too new to evaluate right now (a month in MLB?) but if he keeps going the way he is now, he will be the next superstar. He has everything. Offense, defense, speed, and a smile at the same time. He makes Mike Trout look like a worn-out mare.

He’s fun to watch for sure. Nothing seems to fast for him which is incredible.

Lol ‘she just ain’t what she used to be’ anymore hey? I agree with you completely. I also was simply flabbergasted by the outstanding play/bat of Royce Lewis as well! I know he and the Twins are finished this season but I can’t help but admit that hes coming right long as an incredible blue chip!

Well, I’m wrong a lot but I still say repeat of last year but Philly wins in 7

The chart is being moved to page 11 for quicker reference.

I’m trying not to get myself too awfully spooled up when I think about the prospect of a WS rematch….but I admit I’ve been pulling for this prospect since the trade deadline. Anyone remember the last time we had this? There are several on here that shall - but there are going to be bunches and bunches more who haven’t.
We have to go back to the late 1970’s until we have our last occurrence of this - it’s incredibly special and I’d encourage us all (heck, most were baseball fans long before we started playing it on a console) to pay special attention to this postseason so that, in case this happens to be one of those incredibly special, rare finishes where we get an actual rematch between baseball champions….think of the odds!

But..but...but...I want the Phillies and Rangers in the WS...Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh who am I kidding? I'll watch whomever gets there and if it happens to be a rematch, then I will be there to watch history in the making.

I agree with you 100%! I think the Dbacks vs Rangers would be an awesome WS also, and should it happen I think it has the potential to go 7 as well and be thrilling to watch and i certainly shall watch it no matter who plays and love every minute of it lol!
Still, to have the chances for something special -truly special - and, as you said, rare…well I say bring on the history baby!

Well we got the NL Series opener tonight in Philly and Game 2 of AL (Texas up 1-0) down at Minute Made Park in Houston. Should be a fun night of baseball with Eovaldi on the bump - he’s having a nice post season - against Framber…who is not having too kind of a post season however we all know he can hurl with the best of them. Gonna be fun! Gallen v. Wheeler in the NL so that promises to be fun as well. Got us some Cy Young caliber slingers going tonight fellers!
ALCS game 2 starts in an hour or so (4:37EST), with the NLCS game 1 right after (8:07EST)….see y’all there
-
Astros can't play with their hands around their necks. Its getting ugly
-
Tight game. Let’s see if pressley can get Seager
-
Here we go….bottom 9th rangers up 5-4 with Peña, Diaz, and altuve coming up in bot 9
whiffed with bases loaded earlier maybe he’ll redeem himself…I can think of worse people I’d rather have come to bat in the playoffs with the game on the line lol
-
Ok Rangers sitting pretty at 2-0 headed to their house to play.
7 straight playoff wins for the Rangers…they’re rolling…dang it all
-
What an ending! Wow! Funny thing, I sat down to watch the game towards the of the pregame show and woke up to a 5-1 score. I missed all the exciting runs! But, watching the Astros fight back was something else. Alvarez, man, Alvarez!
