As an O's Fan, I can rest easier

[Bahama O's Fan]

The Yanks and now the Sox are doing the same thing as the O's, not playing anymore playoff baseball.

Nor the Rays and Jays. But I know what you mean.

I prefer the Braves of the remaining teams, but can abide any of the possible outcomes now.

Definitely hoping that the Braves can get it done this year. They were kinda my NL team in my younger days.

I really wanna see the Astros lose. I was begrudgingly cheering for Boston in the ALCS.

I was hoping the Giants would have made it rather than the Dodgers. That could have been fun. At this point I guess I prefer to see the Braves win, but none of it really excites me much.

I'm still on team Anarchy hoping the Astros win just to annoy all those folks that made a huge deal out of the sign stealing when all the Astros did was do it better.

You all see this?

I want the Astros to win but will be good with any of them.

Astros beating the Dodgers would be awesome.

Bassitt stated that the Astros were not the only team “doing stuff” to advance their play in that last couple years. The hurler explained how illegal sign-stealing has been an issue league wide as well.

I think the deluge of pitching injuries the Dodgers are suffering would take a bit of the shine off of it.

I wonder if Bauer is up to throwing a few innings?

I like he he just calls out MLB for being behind on every issue.  They knew about steroids, they knew about sign stealing, they knew about spider tack.

I'm willing to bet they knew clubhouse attendants were scoring drugs for players.

Of course they know. Manfred has been there for all of it, too.

I think the issue predates Manfred.

For instance the Black Sox scandal.  I'm sure at least some owners suspected players were taking money from gamblers.

Rooting for the Braves. They were my grandparents team. Even up until their last days on earth, they wanted to watch the games, even staying up late to watch the west coast ones.
