Brewers? Seattle Mariners: Never. Milwaukee Brewers: 1982. The Brewers' first and most recent appearance in the World Series was in 1982 when they fell to the St. ... San Diego Padres: 1998. ... Colorado Rockies: 2007. ... Texas Rangers: 2011. ...one out away

I wonder when Jerry made the comments, that when he attends the owner meetings, he thought some of them were so dumb and couldn't believe they ever were successful enough to buy a team, I wonder if Tom Ricketts was one of them. LOL! I could see where that would bother Jerry if the Cubs won it all again before the Sox. The Sox could have built a stadium immersed in the neighborhood but instead demanded all the surrounding areas nuked like Nagasaki, whereas the Cubs are generating a lot of revenue beyond the ballpark. Not a huge Ricketts fan, but they hire baseball people and get out if the way, don’t micromanage, and don’t leech off of Chicago taxpayers. Back to the topic at hand, I’ve listed the three teams I want to win in the postseason in another thread, but here they are: Marlins - Burger, Kim Angels - Lucas, Lopez, Ohtani & Trout Astros - Abreu & Alvarez Baltimore, Cincinnati and Tampa for their die hard fans. Contending teams I do not want to win the World Series = Arizona, Atlanta, Boston, Cubs, Dodgers, Minnesota, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Texas, Toronto, Yankees.

Anyone else in the playoff picture I don’t like and wouldn’t root for. The Brewers aren’t going anywhere (nobody from either Central division is worth a crap). The Padres and Rockies are clearly not making the playoffs.
August 4, 20232 yr Angels, Orioles Cannonballers, Dash, Knights Got big into the Bulls last couple years after never watching basketball most of my life. That may have been a mistake however knowing who's at the top.

August 4, 20232 yr I've been cheering for Max Chaos all year and I see no reason to stop now. Max has had a hell of a year.
August 5, 20232 yr I'm cheering for a big last 2 months from Grandal, Andrus and Thompson. They need to show that they can lead us to contention next season. As Pedro said this morning, the last 2 months are not for player development.

Not sure about that if the Padres can actually get some momentum against Dodgers... https://www.fangraphs.com/standings/playoff-odds/fg/wc Musgrove out at least three weeks now for shoulder...

Possibly. But I also don’t want to see them do well either. There was a time I’d absolutely pull for them, but now they seem like a bunch of cocky assholes.
