MLB 2024
- Thread starter calodo2003
- Start date
I will be watching baseball for the first time tonight. All Chiefs fans I know are proper hyped for these games against the Yankees. And I'm seeing all these George Brett going crazy videos on YouTube so I'm also now hyped. It's a great underdog story too.
Also clowns. Woo hoo, won a wild card round.
I'm quite enjoying this Royals Yankees game.
Kinda thought Detroit might ride their late season mo into a long run, but Cleveland may be too strong.
Looks like the Mets may do so on the other side.

Phillies won an absolute classic
Fireworks in the Padres/Dodgers game, maybe we'll get some handbags in the next game.
Apparently, Machado threw a ball into the Dodgers dugout but won't be punished according to some. MLB is seeking video footage of the incident. Just imagine a scenario of a player getting away with something that dangerous yet if you charge the mound to confront a pitcher you get an instant suspension.
Gwan Patrick.
Dodgers survive the Padres and will face the Mets in the championship game. Yankees await the winner of the Detroit/Cleveland series.
Will be an interesting matchup - dominant roster vs hottest team since 1 June in the NL, though only by 2 full games over LAD in that span. Those trends change when the date variable is applied. Dodgers are best since 1 August, by 3.5 games over Mets.
Similar in the AL if Detroit advances, hottest team over the last 40 games vs arguably the best roster in the AL.

Not the Mets night
Perfect start
Stanton is post-season clutch, if Soto and Judge get going like we know they can, look out.

World series baby
Great World Series matchup.
Hard to predict, it's going to be billed as Ohtani vs Judge but as always it will come down to pitching/bullpens. I'm just hoping Stanton stays hot and Soto does his thing, Yankees in 6.

I'm picking Dodgers in six.
That is a stat above stats. Insane.
He really is the best baseball player in my lifetime (and probably the best baseball player of all-time).
Yankees really need Judge to find a bit of form again. Think Dodgers are the better team but can see it going to 6/7 games
Heard something the other day, before game 5 or 6 and think it was a graph, that he was nearly the opposite with no runners on base. It was astonishing the difference, perhaps pitchers giving him more hittable pitches with runners on.
With runners on they're more likely to pitch around him, empty bases they will likely to be more aggressive, I can see him being walked a lot this series
The dodgers have hitters throught the lineup and will score runs. Cole is going to be the key for the Yankees. If he can give them 2 or 3 big games then the Yankees have a chance. The dodgers are just more talented for me though, Dodgers in 7.
Surprised no talk in here tonight
- Mets − $305,624,274
- Yankees − $303,322,047
- Dodgers − $249,823,654 (And this number is horseshit)
We got a new Steve Bartman. Feel kind of bad for him, he left with his kid straight away
schadenfreude?
I finally tuned in around the 6th inning. It's been a good chess match but I'm so meh about this series, I'll probably turn off if LAD do not win this in the 9th. I don't see me getting vested in this regardless of the starpower and storylines. I was far more invested last year but that was also my hometown club finally winning something.
Turned out just fine but he was smart to leave in case it didn't.
One of them has to win, so yeah… that’s out. Really wanted the Guardians to make the WS.
Well, at least the Mets did what the Mets do.
True… but they actually made the playoffs and won a series, so progress!
What's this about?
Yanks go up 3-2 in the tenth.
Fair
