9 hours ago9 hr It just amazes me that we got through this season with all but basically 2 AL teams being somewhere between garbage and mediocre at best. Usually even if it a slow start, some teams break out. It's pretty much Tampa, NYY, and Springfield's Tire Fire.
8 hours ago8 hr Phillies last two weeks of the season have been insane Atlanta, Milwaukee and now TampaThe cubs catching the mets, phillies, and padres all at the right time and now Boston is insane luck. They also had 2 10 game winning streaks and a 10 game losing streak.
7 hours ago7 hr heard this in the morning sports talk in Phoenix which is what we are doing now. It's about rooting for a team you hate to help you out for the post season.

I'm content that they got there otherwise it would be a great failure. I don't want them to enter the next season that way. I imagine it will be a great time at the Cell.

3 hours ago3 hr I'm now happy with Boston for at least beating the Cubs. Want to see them have to go on the road to San Diego, or even Atlanta, which seems possible if they lose out.

They don't like resting. If they are doing well at the plate they don't want a break.Interesting the Cubs and Red Sox had these extreme winning streaks. Either one could go into invincibility mode next week.

I’ve seen it, at least in lower (collegiate) levels in other sports.“Perform anyways” just means not choking or crumbling under the pressure.
