    Will Shohei Ohtani's Los Angeles Dodgers meet Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees in a World Series rematch? Is this the year the Seattle Mariners and Milwaukee Brewersfinally get to the Fall Classic? Will the Philadelphia Phillies make another deep run after a strong regular season? Or will the chaos that ruled September continue to reign?

    MLB experts Jorge Castillo, Bradford Doolittle, Alden Gonzalez, Jeff Passan and David Schoenfield get you ready with odds for every round, why every team could win it all -- or go home early -- and a name to watch for on all 12 World Series hopefuls.

    Lost in my glee that Soto will be watching the playoffs on television was the Asstros missing out.

    Alonso's 'chef's kiss' homer strut makes me want to punch him in his cracka-ass puss.

    yeah i don't know anything about him but he just carries himself like one of those guys
    sure he thought he was being spontaneous and outrageous but should have just shut up
    not really much to trip on either way though is there?

    I didn't see it as that big an affront. Not a Matt Barnes fan at all. There's a reason he played for every team in the NBA.

    Well handled by Strawberry, though.

    I started my intense dislike for him in the HR Derby some years ago. When, in an attempt to look cool and unaffected, he was bobbing his head to the music violently like a toy German Shepherd in the back window of a car...

    Pads might consider hitting it anywhere but at Swanson.

    I think it will, just based on the passing of time, and Busch's age. ..but how do you move FF off first ?
    Is Busch capable of playing anywhere else ? OF? There's a guy in RF...

    Love seeing Machado and Tatis combine 0-7 in their most important game of the year!

    You don't. Busch was buried and Dodgers did him a favor.

    Yeah, that strike three on Boegarts (I don't want to look up the spelling) was bad, but Machado got a gift walk earlier on what should've been strike 3. Point is it balances out and the Padres blaming their failures on one call is comical.

    That said, I'm ready for the ABS. Maybe when specific umps are constantly overturned either they or the league will do something about it.

    As a side note, I usually listen to games on the radio feed while doing work around the house, so not necessarily watching, but I did sit and watch the two against the Reds, and I thought those umps were excellent.

    Good idea there... after a year to "refresh" the "skills" of certain inept, bottom- dwelling umps who come in as the dregs before they continue on unabated in the following season...like armed police and agents with firing range minimums, so they can kill more efficiently.
    With ABS next year, the fact that if you get it right and validated by asking for a replay does not use up that challenge is a stroke of fine thinking.
    Certainly better than waiting for arguably the greatest baseball player ever to be dead first for allowing him enshrinement in the HOF, where so many lesser players have been for years already.
