    Yankees. I feel the hate already!! Been an interesting season so far across MLB. Some major powerhouses, Yanks, Sox, and Astros... And some really really, really bad teams, tanking, Marlins, Mets, Etc.

    I'm still suffering from this miserable weekend when the Sox, who are having an epic season, swept my Yanks. Sox are playing insane baseball right now.

    I'm a big Reds fan for better or for worse.

    I was a kid when they won the series in 90. Those memories run deep.

    Boston is unbelievable this year. I don't think they are slowing down one bit either. Betts is having a monstrous season, one of the best I've seen in in 30+ years of watching baseball. But, playoff time is different. Especially facing Houston's starting rotation. Frightening.

    Alas, Marlins fan here. Given yet another offseason firesale, however, I opted for free agency and signed a one year deal with the Brew Crew.

    I'm glad we have a baseball thread on here now.

    Talk about injuries...my God, Yanks are decimated. I don't know how they will recover, they are really torn up. Perfect timing too, end of season is coming, and Sox on their worst losing streak of their season, at 3 games lol. Looks like we will stumble into the post season...

    Reviving this thread for the postseason.

    I pick the Brewers to win the NL, although the Dodgers give me pause. If the Braves manage to win their NLDS, it will be a Pyrrhic victory.

    I pick the Astros or the Indians for the AL. Whoever wins that division series will beat the Sox or the Yankees in the ALCS.

    In the WS, I pick the Brewers. They have a Team of Destiny feel right now. Of course, I'm also biased.

    (I still think the Stros are the favorite to take the whole thing.)

    I grew up as an expos fan as my mom's friend's dad was the GM of them (1980s) and she used to give me some memorabilia and apparel. After they moved, I didn't really have a team. I mostly root against teams like the cubs, yankees, braves, and a few others. I follow the rangers, but don't watch all of their games. I was an assistant coach for the high school team that joey gallo played on so he's my favorite mlb player. Or I'll root on any player from the university I graduated from in the playoffs.
