Rooting for the Phillies to take that series I guess cause I have no fear of them and great fear of Pujols/Yadi/Waino storybook devil magic.

Big Mean Jerk: Jan 27, 2009; Well, of course I know him.
He's me.

I desperately need someone to beat the Cards early because Pujols single-handedly destroying the Astros in the final playoff games of his career feels like some kind of cursed destiny otherwise.

Starting late because of the lockout, but yeah, they're also going longer.

It's kinda bullshit that all three wild card games are in the middle of the god drat day.

I swear to god if the mariners get bounced early and I don't even get to do an outdoor prime time post season game on my projector I'm gonna be one hot potato.

Astros finish with 106 wins, 1 short of the 2019 team. Players they've lost from that team include Cole, Springer and Correa. The pitching has really picked up the slack this year

Lester Shy: May 1, 2002; Goodness no, now that wouldn't do at all!

I've paid zero attention to baseball since ~2018, but I love dingers and I'm a Rangers fan so the last few NYY/TEX games sucked me back in. Don't know anything about either team, but I'm rooting for a Padres/Mariners series with Darvish pitching the winning game.

I am a little mad that I may be in AZ for at least one WS game, I might be really mad depending on who is in the series and how long it goes.

Keep in mind that the playoffs are starting like 3 days later than they normally would have due to the lockout. That said, last year's World Series did end November 2 (November 3 would have been game 7) so yeah, it's been bleeding into November a bit.

davecrazy: Nov 25, 2004; I'm an insufferable shitposter who does not deserve to root for such a good team. Also, this is what Matt Harvey thinks of me and my garbage posting.

Mets with a better record then the Yankees. Who saw that in July.

Go Mets.

Wait when did Darvish get traded to the Mariners?

I personally think it would be cool if the Mariners won, but I'll also settle for some of the other outlier teams like the Guardians, Phils, and Dads.
