Welcome to the Padres
@Mr. Radpants. I am pumped for these playoffs. Some really good matchups and possible matchups. I actually think we get the Mets. Darvish, Musgrove and Snell have been better than the Mets big 3 the last month. If they can just get some timely hitting and if Soto would turn it on for the playoffs, it's a wrap. After that, it's game over, though. They can't beat their daddy.
Braves are the best team in baseball right now. They and the Dodgers are on a collision course I believe.
In the AL, I like Cleveland and Seattle to win the first round and then I think the Astros will play Cleveland in the ALCS. I always go with pitching in the playoffs. Some random hitter could get hot and carry a team like Arozarena did that one year for the Rays, but typically the pitching wins out.
I don't hate any teams really. Most of my sports hatred comes from fans and I don't ever get exposed to any baseball fans around here so my hatred is limited.
