I'm hearing 1:30 start time Tuesday and Wednesday. Expected it, but it still sucks.


If that's what it is, I wouldn't be able to watch a single pitch of game 1 and I would miss most of game 2.


Sorry bud

Yeah I'll miss all of them. Life of a teacher in a fine arts program that has after school rehearsals.

This happens every year with the opening round (usually ALDS). You'd think we earned a night game by now

I hope it ends up as the same **** as every year for the last 7 years...ALCS appearance.

Yep. Nothing at all from game 1 or 3 and probably just the last 3 innings of game 2.

Thanks America for not giving a **** about the best team in baseball for the LAST 8 ****ING YEARS.

Alright… let's hear some predictions.

How does each series go for the Astros (winner and how many games)

Wild Card: Astros in 2
ALDS: Astros in 4
ALCS: Astros over Yankees in 7 (head says yanks, but I can't pick them)
World Series: Phillies over Astros in 6


WC: Astros in 3
ALDS: Astros in 5
ALCS: Yankees in 6 and I expect at least 2 head shaking calls in favor of the Yankees.

My memory may be way off... but didn't the Braves get similar treatment back during their run in the 90's?

Question - would tigers have home field if they had a better record despite not winning their division?

Or does the division winner always rank higher than a team that doesn't win their division?


Division winner gets the 3 seed regardless of record I believe.

Division winners will have home field over wild card all the way through I believe. So if we are the 3 seed in the AL and face the 4 seed padres, we'd get homefield (I'm pretty sure). At least through the ALCS division winners do

They certainly did when they played us.

Since I can't watch the games I may as well get the playoff party started now.

It's playoff baseball. May the good luck titties work their magic. And may those of you who flag this get incurable wiener warts.

Definitely don't want to turn the announcers against us anymore than they already will be, but it would be awesome to include this clip in a playoff montage.

So. Call your shots.

Does Yordan make the WC roster?
Does Chas make the WC roster?
Does JV make the WC roster?

Yes.
No.
Yes. Not because he will play but just because.

Politics. On the WNC flooding thread. Guy was basically saying folks had plenty of warning and is everyone's fault. I pointed out how storm track predictions were wrong and changed and he became argumentative. So I just said I have realized that even some Aggies can be know it all, argumentative xxxxxx and I hoped he learned compassion one day.

28-29 in day games. MLB really looking for an early Astros departure from the playoffs.

No, yes, no.

We've seen this song and dance before with injured players, and I'm afraid it'll play out the same with yordan. I think that's part of why they brought up dezenzo was to get him some big league ABs to play in the wild card series.

JV serves no purpose in the WC series. He would have to pitch in short rest unless it's game 3 and I don't want him anywhere close to the field in an elimination game.

Baseball needs to fire all of its executives. Young people in general do not watch baseball. Then there's me, I really like it but I won't watch one moment of my team in the playoffs because of the archaic scheduling.

Wild card series History

2022:
Phillies over Cardinals 2-0
Padres over Mets 2-1
Guardians over rays 2-0
Mariners over Blue Jays 2-0

2023:
Twins over blue Jays 2-0
Rangers over rays 2-0
Phillies over Marlins 2-0
Dbacks over brewers 2-0

The message? Whoever wins game 1 wins the series.
So far no game 1 loser has won a wild card series. Framber better be laser focused

Do not understand non-weekend day playoff games in any sport.

MLB can't stagger games with multiple off days like the NBA and NHL to play all prime time games. Teams would be able to use fewer starters.

I guess the question is, what leads to more viewership overall? Afternoon games or playing games at the same time?
