When we were 3-0 to start the awful 2021 season.  So much hope after that sweep in Boston LOL 

Ah yes, those days when Adam Plutko was the steal of the offseason and Cesar Valdez was the next Mariano Rivera.

Adam Plutko. I got a shiver of terror down my spine reading that.  Those days do seem like a while ago.

Making the playoffs is not much an accomplishment now. Why did they add 2 more teams when too many teams already make it?

 

And IMO the play in game is not the playoffs. It's a game to get into the playoffs

It's the playoffs, because 9 other teams don't even get the chance to play that game

I do think expansion of the playoffs was a bad idea… but I will take it if we make it lol

I could be wrong but I thought it's a best of 3 now.

Tampa lost, Toronto is down late, and the Yankees are losing 1-0 in St Louis

There's not a play in game anymore. 3 plays 6, 4 plays 5. Both 3 games series and I believe all 3 games are hosted by the higher seed.

[Roll Tide]

Just 1 game behind Tampa

The Orioles were up to 41% odds to make the playoffs before today's games. That should tick up a little more after today.

Unfortunately the Mariners won the 1st game of their DH. Hopefully they will lose game 2.

You like that name, what if I whispered "Aaron Brooks"

What sort of feelings does that give you?

Pride.

I made the fantasy football playoffs 2 years in a row and drafted Aaron Brooks in the 8th round both years as my starting QB.
