There's Only One Postseason (in 2018)

Did ESPN ever used a good song for their postseason montages?

Cubs clearly not the team of destiny

uhhh that was a really bad call

Vasgerz mentioned Dave Roberts b4 i could

terrance gore is fun

too bad for such loathsome teams

gonna be interesting if this goes to extra innings with no rizzo

hi guys

go anyone but the Dodgers

Someone tell Rodriguez about Yelich and deGrom.

The Baez MVP talk is embarrassing at this point.

predicting:
NL Wild Card - Cubs (Rockies can't beat the Dodgers)
AL Wild Card - Yankees (hope I'm wrong)
NL LDS - Dodgers - Brewers
AL LDS - Red Sox - Astros
NL LCS - Brewers
AL LCS - Astros
WS - Astros

wish we did a thread for every round but whatever...

Parra a brutal reminder how thin the Rockies bench is.

after the Osuna move, HOU can fuck right off

Matt V and A-Rod pretty blatantly Cubs-obsessed

I don't think I can handle Cubs nation if Schwarber walks it off.

Oh please yes please Maddon burn your 34 year old ace.

lol Murphy chased right after A-Rod said he wdn't

You guys are right, ESPN is making me root for the Rockies

Not a bad thing, like them

Looked good

Ugh

Drink every time Arod says less is more!

Haha. It's Tuesday night can't do that

Extra in a sudden death game, like it

A-rod is kind of ridiculously silly sometimes

I'll risk the wrath of ILB but here we go.

To be fair, Arod is often way better than he is tonight. He is at his best when his explains basic hitting and fielding stuff for noobs. At all times though he gets excited in a way that only Arod would appreciate.

love a rod calling games.

Did we lose everyone in the East?

Fun game

Did you know they also playing this game on ESPN2 with a different crew?

Wow

Should have thrown to first

Rockies have really had a ton of chances here huh

barely hangin in here

Rockies really need another bat beyond Arenado/Story/Blackmon/Dahl.

Cubs have this in the bag now

Yeah, unfortunately

Really excited for that OH double play to get to the 12th.

lmao heads up play by Baez hugging Arenado to break up the DP

Wtf

Is that legal?

If the Cubs score here it would be so unfair

I'm not sure Arenado has a play, seems like it could become a tactic?

at the end of the day it works out for the Rockies - Hamels is out and the Cubs are all out of players

Really, only one guy?

Maddon burning potentially three starters is him understanding his squad won’t get past the Brewers right?

it's already the point where we curse Tony LaRussa's invention of the 8-man bullpen

u SOB

yeah this works out nice for us

ok surely THIS will be the Cubs' inning

hey VHS, u gotta get to tomorrow

and Oakland has hardly any starters

6th largest payroll, 100m plus than the Oakland A's.

It's not like we aren't consistent, most of us here cheered against the Cubs last night.

6th largest payroll is frugal by Yankees standards

It is still more than the double the ressources of the Oakland A's.

In any case I hope you are excited for the retirement of Yankee legend Luke Voit next July.

number retirement** ha

Yikes, Yankees are good

I guess y’all are gonna root for the Yankees against #1 payroll-havers Boston

dahmer vs gacy
