MLB Wildcard

jms62 · #1 10-06-2016, 05:10 AM

Start off by prefacing I am a Yankees fan and any true Yankee or Met fan despises the other team. This is not sour grapes. MLB really needs to make these Wild Card games 2 of 3. Start on Monday after the season and have every game at the site of the higher seeded team as a reward for being the highest seeded team. Then start the playoffs on Friday with every team playing which would give it the feel of opening 2 days of NCAA where you have non stop games.

Bumgarner is the Lebron of MLB. Living legend.

Don't ever embarrass a man by comparing him to Madison Bumgarner, Who could take it to the hole against Queen JAmes in his own sport.

Bruno Sammartino was the living legend , not Lee Bron James

On a side note , Buck Greywater is the stupidest manager around. Imagine having Britton in the bullpen waiting and trotting that hump Jimenez out there ? What was he waiting for an invitation ? The players were even scratching their heads.
It's Papi vs the Cubs. That what the powers that be want . Can't you see Big Popcorn knocking one out of Wrigley to dash their hopes again ?

I dont kill Showalter for not starting Britton in the inning. That being said, he needed to have him warmed up and ready to go, once Travis got the single. Once Donaldson got on base, he needed to go to him.

Great thread!

The wild card game is a tough call..without it I wouldn't have see Sunday games that were incredible...

Coach...Premier is fun but they have their issues too...and you know them...

As a Sox fan...Go Giants

Yes, let's reward the teams that didn't win their division but made the wildcard.

Best night in Baseball ever.

I don't like the second wildcard at all. All it equates to is a play-in game for the real playoffs, where you are now at a disadvantage cause you needed your ace to get through.

How bout ending the season after 152 games this way you can play the 2 out of 3 like Jim mentioned and scrap this ridiculous one game format.

Major League Baseball.

Hope the Cubs don't win just for the safety of innocents stuck in Chicago.

I hope they don't win because the Ricketts family are garbage sub-humans.

Haven't watched a complete game since the 90's.

Haven't watched an NFL game this season.

I don't like the entitlement of the players and the greed of the owners.

Looks like I won't be watching the NBA either.

It's getting to the point that all I'll have left is Premier League.

One game sucks. Its a big advantage to the team that plays the winner as they most likely the best pitcher wont be out there til game 3.

truth be told, SF is gonna push them as far as they can go, if they can get through them without getting beat up too much i believe they'll run through the Nats or the dodgers no problem. And i say this as a Nats fan.

the dude-bros will be out in full force fo'sho in wrigley, nevermind the thousands flocking in from all over the country.

ticket prices are ridiculous, parking near the field which is already tight as it is on non-game days is going for $100+. Been kicking around the idea of Air BnB'ing my place if they MAKE IT. With ticket prices where they're at my only option to see a game would be the rooftops, which the vast majority of have limited to no view of the field, but..... OPEN BAR DUDE!!!
