Honestly they should adopt the hockey/basketball format where the top 8 teams make the playoffs with the division winners getting the top 3 seeds. Do a best of 3 for the wild card round, best of 5 for the division round then jump to best of 7 for the last 2.

Absolutely not. Half the league should not be given the opportunity to be rewarded. The regular season should matter.

Just wanted to say that I just bought our first Braves tickets for the 2020 season. YAY!

If you guys watch the May 26th or 27th games against St. Louis I'll be the fan in the Braves jersey....lol

EDIT: And I have NO idea how I convinced my wife to travel to Atlanta and go to 2 games back to back.

The latest excuse for why Jose Altuve clinged to his jersey after the notorious walk-off under scrutiny has changed from not wanting to embarrass his wife, to an unfinished tattoo.

Jose Altuve tattoo excuse should strengthen Yankees’ mentality

TAMPA — Nothing beats spring-training lingo, right? Best shape of my life. Working on a new pitch. Looking forward, not back. Seemingly premeditated retaliation. The last one comes courtesy of new …

Way too many coincidences going on here.

-The mysterious source / now-deleted Twitter account which leaked the buzzer story was 100% spot-on with all other leaks prior relating to the scandal.
-The varying explanations for why he clung to the jersey that particular time, but not other times.
-The prioritized run into the dugout to quickly change. Has any player done this before? Skipped the celebratory dog-pile (as the hero) with such haste to put the championship shirt on first & foremost?

None of which proves guilt, but this will forever remain a mystery in the court of public opinion unless a major bombshell is dropped later down the line.

Astros' Reddick: Kids also targeted in threats

Astros players have gotten threats "every day" since the team's 2017-18 sign-stealing scheme came to light in recent weeks, according to outfielder Josh Reddick, who said Friday that messages he has received also targeted his family.

I get being upset but this is disgusting and proves that fans take crap WAY too seriously.

I've known some guys with some serious gambling problems including betting on baseball. For them to lose on games and find out the Red Sox and Astros were known cheaters it would send them over the edge.

Wear your team gear on would-be opening day, post on social media. Maybe it will put a smile on everyone’s faces.. including the team :)

Yeah, sad times. We have a trip planned for end of May up to Atlanta for 2 games. Games tickets, hotel, and flight all purchased....... :(

Hope for that happening is fading day by day.
