they will absolutely have to pick the start times before wild cards winners are determined.

if not, it would give fans 36 hours to make arrangements to go to an early afternoon game.

there is precedent for this. they did this last year.

there is NO CHANCE they will slot a chance of a west coast team ( SF could be at Was) in the early slot on a weekday.

we are playing the first game on Friday.

deal with it.

No they don't, they can do as they want to, as they will.

On Friday Major League Baseball announced game times for the NLDS and ALDS through Tuesday of next week, which will cover up to Game 3 of the National League Divisional Series.

The postseason kicks off on Friday with the Braves and Cardinals playing the first ever play-in wild-card game at 2:07 p.m. PT. The Braves are favored, but know this: if the final game of Chipper Jones career is a one-game playoff loss, it would be both sad and fitting. The Rangers host the Orioles at 5:37 p.m. PT. No, "Orioles" is not a typo. Both games are on TBS.

The dates were already known. Now, we officially have start times for Games 1 and 2.

The Red Sox will begin their ALDS series versus the AL wild card winner at Fenway Park on Friday and Saturday. Friday’s Game 1 is scheduled for 3:07 p.m. ET, and Saturday’s Game 2 is scheduled for 5:37 p.m. ET.

do you really expect baseball to troll their fans who followed all year long, and give them what, 24 hour notice that, "game 1 is at 1:30 PM, i hope you can find someone to cover your shift, lol"

Are you always this angry?

You could end up being right about it being the early game on Friday, but tone down the attitude a little bit. Is it REALLY that big of a deal to get this worked up about?

    • I picked the over with the caveat he stays up all season of course and plays regularly as he should.
    • The season is exactly 1/9 over, so you can just multiply any cumulative stat by 9 to see how it projects over a full season.  That results in the O’s protecting to 108 wins, scoring 936 runs (+129 over last year) while allowing 693 (+15 over last year).    On an individual level: Gunnar 117 runs, 135 RBI, 54 HR, 8.1 rWAR Westburg 99 runs, 126 RBI, 36 HR, 9.0 rWAR Mullins 126 runs, 135 RBI, 45 HR, 8.1 rWAR Santander 99 runs, 135 RBI, 36 HR, -0.9 rWAR (!) Cowser 72 runs, 135 RBI, 36 HR, 9.9 rWAR Mountcastle and O’Hearn also are projecting out to 6.3 rWAR, and Adley 4.5. Some folks may remember that last year I posted a thread where I was tracking WAR and other stats every 18 games.  Going back, we never had an offensive segment last season with as many good performances as this last one.  (I am planning a similar thread this season, but in 27 game segments, as 18 just seemed a little too frequent.)
    • Pitchers have them all Tide up at the moment.
    • CBS sports of all outlets has a great article with heat maps and supporting data that just came out an hour ago.  https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/jackson-holliday-has-struggled-in-mlb-debut-so-far-but-here-are-three-reasons-to-believe-in-orioles-prospect/    
    • Love the sound of that write up. Thank you. Sounds a bit like Trace Bright. Or McDermott with a better changeup instead of a curve. Or a number of the arms the Orioles drafted last year. They definitely have displayed a type that they like for pitchers similar to the “power + swing decisions + athleticism, but questionable hit tool” type for hitters. Good fastball qualities, ability for spin, and hope we can get them to throw strikes. 
    • This.  I brought this up before. Sure he has some bad 0-1 calls go against him and next thing you know he is 0-2 just swinging away. But look at the pitches thrown to him at #9 and then go look at the pitches thrown to Gunnar, and it's a joke.  He is getting painted on every corner.
