Quoted from Maken:That's what people always think, but teams surprise pretty often in MLB. Braves had 88 wins last year, won WS. Nationals were a wild card team in 2019, won WS. Giants did it too in 2014.
Signed, fan of wild card team
This year looks a little different…seems the top teams have both good pitching and hitting. The Astros fell short with not enough strong pitchers against the Nationals and the Braves. Injuries will do that and that’s part of sports. No sour grapes here as any team would be glad to make it to the WS win or lose.
But that’s what makes the playoffs so great…any team can win it.
