Twins suck in NY no matter the roster.

 

Can we just skip to Astros-Indians and Nationals-Dodgers and send everyone else home?

 

I'm anticipating another choke by the Dodgers honestly. And Nats need to get Harper ready. Would honestly suck to watch the Cubs play them without him.

Wouldn't cubs Dodgers be the division series?

 

Unless the Dodgers blow a 3.5 game lead to the Nationals, it will be Nats/Cubs and Dodgers/Wild Card. Divisions don't matter anymore. It changed when they went two wild cards.

 

Mods- can you change thread title so it's more general to both leagues? Thanks.

Well, the Twins and Yankees will be playing a week from Tuesday night. Winner will play the 1 seed.

 

AL 1-Seed:

Cle -

Hou 1.5

Indians hold the tie-breaker, so really 2.5

 

MLB 1-Seed:

LA -

Cle 1

Hou 2.5

 

NL WC2:

Col -

Mil 1

Stl 1.5

 

That's all that's left up in the air for the postseason.

Agreed, and I hope all the teams on the left win. If the Yankees, Red Sox, and Cubs make the LCS, I'll have no interest unless Sale and Quintana faced each other in a WS game...and even then, maybe won't watch.

Yep, except I kinda prefer AZ knocks LA out in the in the division series. I won't b**** if the Dodgers advance though. Should be good either way. I'm with ya on the BoSux, I just can't root for them despite Chris Sale. Ugh, a BoSux vs cubs WS would be the f***ing worst. I would not watch that series. Hoping it looks like this...

 

ALCS

 

Indians vs Astros

 

NLDS

 

Nat's vs AZ

 

That's perfect for me. No cubs or BoSux.

The only teams I have no interest in are the Red Sox and Astros. Also, I can't root for STL.

 

I will be rooting for the Wild card Twins, Brwers (if they make it, or Colorado) and Arizona as my #1 spots.

Next, I wouldn't mind the Yankees or Cubs or Indians.

And I prefer LAD/NATS over the teams I don't want to win :P.

 

As someone who lives less then 2 minutes away from Wrigley, I am ready for the playoffs! Love having my window open and hearing the games.

Looks Harper comes back tomorrow for a series with the Phillies.

 

That's great news. Always want teams to be as full health as possible in the playoffs. Produces the most credible and reputable games. Harper is a player that needs to be healthy.

Agreed. Especially good news since the Nat's will probably play the cubs in the NLDS.
