Didn't see one yet. Place your bets on lowest rated series. Can we get Rays vs Marlins!

Hope for some great games, I am predicting a Astros vs Braves World Series again

PejaD · 10-01-2023, 04:15 PM

I foresee a Hank Aaron NLCS (Braves-Brewers).

I want to see a Rays-Twins ALCS (the Rocco Baldelli reunion series?).

JRX · 10-01-2023, 05:59 PM

So are the mets and marlins not finishing the suspended game?

Do they need to for playoff reasons?

I thought they did for seeding but mlb app has all matchups so I guess not.

I doubt it. Why exert the effort? Either the Brewers or Phillies… I don’t see too much if a difference. It’ll be a tough series for the Marlins either way.

Probably the two best starting rotations in the NL. Milwaukee I'd say has the top staff overall

hxcmilkshake · 10-01-2023, 06:27 PM

Deja vu here we go with Houston again. Down year we thought, Altuve hurt, Verlander gone, but Verlander comes back, they still get swept by KC but no matter the Rangers are hungover and now will not get out of the 1st round...and ya look up and its Houston with a 2 seed, and I get to watch Verlanders face AGAIN in the playoffs. Basically my version of hell.

Yeah, I agree. The Fish will have their work cut out for them. To be honest though, I’m just happy to be here. Anything beyond this is a bonus.

JRX · 10-01-2023, 06:36 PM

I guess phillies will be the primetime matchup? There's really no great choices

As a Braves fan, I'm glad LA gets to deal with Milwaukee first

Looks like it. Texas Tampa is probably the best series from a pure baseball stand point

NYBBFAN · 10-01-2023, 06:53 PM

I would love to see the Jays go far, but their bats are anemic sometimes. I’m predicting an Orioles/Braves WS. Not exactly a revolutionary idea, I know.

JRX · 10-02-2023, 08:04 PM

So chiefs jets averaged 27m viewers. Will the entire wild card rd get anywhere close to that? I'd guess not.

With Woodruff's emotions at today's press conference, I have a feeling he is not just missing the Wild Card round and might be lost for the remainder of 2023 or possibly longer. Definitely a bummer

coltsnsox07 · 10-02-2023, 10:18 PM

Who's the stiff the Dbacks are starting game one vs Corbin Burnes?...

Pfaadt. Hitters have a .316 BABIP and 44% hard hit! In other words, hitters turn into Mookie Betts when they face him.

I understand the Astros hate but why Verlander? Cause of the Astros or just not a fan?

slogue2 · 10-03-2023, 01:10 PM

Braves vs Rays WS. Braves winning.

I'd like to see the D'Backs make some noise in the NL and think it would be awesome to see the Orioles do the same in the AL field. Only an hour away!

theredmenace · 10-03-2023, 02:01 PM

Rangers really needed hfa to make a splash in the playoffs. I'll be surprised if they manage to win 1 in the Rays series.

ALCS picks are BAL v HOU

NLCS picks are ATL v LAD

I'd love to see LAD v BAL in the WS but I'd put money on ATL v HOU.

JRX · 10-03-2023, 02:03 PM

I want Rays vs Marlins so we can get the first world series where both teams tarp off the upper deck to make it look more crowded.

A Heat preseason game may outdraw them
