MLB 2020: We'll Play Ball, I Guess.

[JF_Gophers]

Totally inaccurate predictions.

Dodgers over Cardinals
Braves over Brewers
Giants over Dodgers
Giants over Braves

Red Sox over Yankees
Astros over White Sox
Rays over Red Sox
Rays over Astros

Giants over Rays


The places I could see additonal so called upsets are:

Cards over Dodgers (1 game)
Yankees over Red Sox (1 game)
Dodgers over Giants
White Sox over Astros

I want the Brewers to go farther, but they haven't been all that great lately.

[Bronco]

I don't completely dislike the Braves. So there's that.

[MinnesotaNorthStar]

Go Rays/National League…

I would rank the NL

1) Giants
2) Brewers
3) Braves
4) Dodgers
5) Cardinals

Rays/Giants or Rays/Brewers is about all I can root for.

The Rays are definitely the "best" of the awful options on the AL side. I would rather eat tar than see the White Sox back in the World Series. The Yankees and Red Sox are about as boring as it gets, and the Astros are cheaters. So, by default, I will be cheering on Tampa...but I certainly won't have any good feelings if they do advance.

On the NL side, my least favorite NL team is in it (Atlanta). Dodgers fans are horrendous. I could easily say the same thing about the Cardinals...but I have to bite my tongue, as my wife is from St. Louis and they are all Cards fans. I don't have really strong feelings one way or the other for the Giants, but they do have 3 recent titles. While the Brewers are the Twins interleague "rival," I would be just fine with them winning a a title.

So yes, Rays/Brewers, with Milwaukee taking the title.

Yuck. Go Brewers.

I've been a Giants fan for over 50 years and if it should turn out to be a Bost/San Fran WS I will be at one on those games at Fenway.

Well, the Yankees walk off the Rays, and then the Red Sox storm back from a 4-run deficit to take a 7-5 lead in the 9th.

So we'll have Red Sox - Yankees for about the 9 millionth time. : (

From a Twins' fan's perspective, this is about the worst AL Playoff field as humanly possible.

[SonofSouthie]

Giants up 11-1 top of the 8th.

[Fighting Sioux 23]

We have no reason to complain. We have two titles. One happened to be compromised on one timeline out of 14 million.

Sweet. How many Vikings' Super Bowls can we claim now? We are the absolute kings of losing on a 1/14,000,000 type situation.

Midway through the games today, and pretty much everyone holding up their end of the bargain to create a 4-team tie for the 2 Wild Card spots...well, almost everyone. : - p

Muncy removed for injury by LA. Yikes.

Honestly, it’s weird seeing a Seattle team being embraced.

The Mariners were America's team the year we came back and beat the Yankees (97?).

Edit: 95.

[Jimjamesak]

The Seahawks fans have made me weary of ever cheering for a Seattle team again.

I’m not sure what the process actually used to be for four team scenarios, but my guess it was drawing lots to place teams into slots A-D.

I very vaguely remember this as correct.
