lordsketor Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Didn't even watched the ALWC, I saw this coming from a mile away. The yankee offense these past 3 weeks was nowhere to be found. I can thank Cashman for not doing anything remotely impactful this past trade deadline, He better do something this free agency period this Winter. Many thanks to Discrimihater for making the sig.

rams80 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I think it may be time for the New York Yankees to make a change at the GM position. Cashman has been there for a long time. They need fresh blood. When the Yankees don't do well in the playoffs, baseball doesn't do well. A Yankees / Cardinals World Series would have been what this country needs to heal it's soul. Regal. Class. Grace. Excellence.

Fishplatter Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I feel bad for Carlos Beltran. It's sad. Only one WS appearance (2013). He should be respected more in this league. He really needs a World Championship. I want championships! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HedleyLamarr Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 If a few things fall a certain way, it could be a really interesting playoff route for the Astros. Should they get past the Royals, there's the possibility of an all-Texas ALCS, then face one of their old NL Central division rivals (or their older NL West division foe in the Dodgers) in the World Series.

TrueYankee26 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 The least deserving postseason team is gone. Played thru the motions the last 2 months. Routinely lost series they should have won. Only clinched homefield in the WC game because the Diamondbacks beat Houston. Old, ancient players who certainly showed their age. Hank and Hal better start looking like their father, and fast before we become the Phillies of the AL. Season's over, but who knows if thiis team will ever be a true World SSeries contender for a long, long time. trueyankee26.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubsfan2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 ,I haven't been on these parts for two months.Oh what the heck.After yesterday's amazing game (yet shocking),I decieded to post my biased and un-biased predictions for the 2015 playoffs.Let me say this:the Cubs and the Astros have done some of the greatest season turnarounds in history.They both have young stars looking to be the next great in the MLB.And if that's Kris Bryant or Jose Altuve,the future for baseball is bright.But now,here are my predictions for the 2015 MLB playoffs.MY BIASED PREDICTONSAL:ALDS:Astros 3Royals 1Blue Jays 3Rangers 0ALCS:Astros 4Blue Jays 1NL:WILD CARD:Cubs 3PiratesNLDS:Cubs 3Cardnials 2Mets 3Dodgers 2NLCS:Cubs 4Mets 3WORLD SERIESCubs 4Astros 0UN-BIASEDAL:ALDS:Royals 3Astros 1Blue Jays 3Rangers 1ALCS:Royals 4Blue Jays 3NL:WILD CARD:Cubs 6Pirates 5NLDS:Cardinals 3Cubs 1Mets 3Dodgers 2NLCS:Cardnials 4Mets 2WORLD SERIES:Royals 4Cardinals 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Prediction: the Cubs eliminate the Pirates, then face the Cardinals in the NLDS who beat them in extra innings of game 5 because the Cardinals are awful people who have murdered more narratives than George RR Martin.

Kramerica Industries Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Objectively, it would be pretty cool if, 30 years later, we saw another postseason with Kansas City facing Toronto in the ALCS and then St. Louis in the World Series. Objectively, it would also be pretty cool in general if Kansas City or Toronto, on the AL side, or Pittsburgh on the NL side won the World Series, or at least got there. If I weren't a raging sado-masochist, that would be the World Series matchup I'm rooting for. People who enjoy stories are satisfied; people who enjoy quality are satisfied; people who enjoy both are really satisfied. Alas. I am a raging sado-masochist, so an all-Texas ALCS is a bare minimum to satisfy me this postseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS85 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 It would seriously be so awful if the Cardinals eliminated the Cubs, should they win. I just hate everything about them. Everybody hates their fan base.Just.... off. For a decade. Begone. Fade into baseball obscurity and cease polluting things with your bullcrap.

The_Admiral Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Very disappointing season for the 2015 New York Yankees. When you don't win the World Series,it's a FAILURE. Win a ring, or nothing was won. It was a classic, though. The Astros are legit.I found the game both epic and iconic. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnPheitseog Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I wish we could see a Astros rangers WS, personally.that said, hoping PIrates jays, and failing that anyone besides the rangers astros or royals, and failing that anyone but the cards Formerly known as DiePerske Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmoehrin Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Thoughts on the Cubs/Pirates game tonight.Simply put I don't see how you can pick against the Cubs with the way Jake Arrieta has been pitching. I don't know if there's been a pitcher this hot coming into the playoffs since Orel Hershiser in '88.The Pirates will be at home, so they at least have the home field advantage, but if the Cubs could have sent Jake Arrieta to the mound every game this year, they probably would have won 130 games, so I don't know if that's going to make any bit of difference.The biggest concern I would have with Chicago is how are they going to win games where Jake Arrieta doesn't start. I'm alright with sending Lester out there to start a playoff game, but when it comes to Kyle Hendricks and Jason Hammel I'm nowhere near as confident. I would be happy with any outing where they could gave me five innings and facing a team with as much pitching depth as the Cardinals have, that's not good.After tonight, they're going to have to find a way of stealing at least one if not two games each series in order to win the World Series. Not impossible, but there's not going to be a single starting pitching matchup that favors them in any of these games and if anything is going to do the Cubs in its that.Game one of the LDS they will almost certainly go with Jon Lester and that might be a must a win for them, because if they don't win that, where are the other two non Arrieta wins coming from?For the Pirates, I'd say its just hope that Jake Arrieta pitches the worst game he's had over the last two months, which should give Gerrit Cole three runs to work with. I think they have a much better chance at taking down the Cards then Chicago does. They don't have nearly the starting depth issues that Chicago has. Both Liriano and Burnett are pretty solid and J.A. Happ has been lights out since coming over from Seattle, so there's no game they're not capable of winning, expect maybe this one.The Pirates are not facing the Cubs tonight so much as they're facing Jake Arrieta. The Cubs I know are beatable, but I'm not so sure Arrieta is right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 When Arrieta gets chased in an eight-run second inning, I'm coming after you with an Oakland-grade stabbing knife. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tp49 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Even though given the Mets' offensive woes the past couple of weeks of the teams left I'd like to see an '86 NLCS matchup in the World Series. Mets Astros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
