MLB Playoffs

Figured it needed to be started... I love any baseball, especially October baseball.

Boston outscored the Angels by 80 runs during the season -- and by 43 runs just in the past two months, after the Red Sox subtracted Manny and the Angels added Teixeira.

That stat surprised me.

Yet another concern about the Angels, said one NL executive, is that, in October, "it's no longer about your best 25 players, which is the way you win a lot of games from April to September. October is about your best 16 or 18 players." And it's the Red Sox who have more game-changers in that top 16 to 18, assuming they're all healthy."

Oh no, the Cubs are doomed. People are picking them to win it.

Thanks for the link anyway.

I'm a Yovani Gallardo fan. Not even entirely sure why, but i think he'll be good if he can avoid more injury.

Oh this would cap the year off for me. If the Cubs would go out in the first round, and the Mets sitting at home.

Man that ball had a motor on it, I thought the CF would bring it in about the warning track but it just kept sailing.

I wouldn't care to see the Cubs win it. Maybe then the media won't salivate all over them every year waiting on them to do so.
