    Unaffiliated in the early 90's, so became a Braves guy by default. Thus, I keep quiet around M's fans. Not fair to talk about my squad, especially since they're only "mine" because of TBS.

    Ahh, that's right. I think there are a couple Braves guys around here. An MLB thread would be nice but that usually gets hammered by soccer trolls upset that baseball is slightly better. This thread should probably even be in the OT thread, but I'm not gonna complain.

    You right. I did forget that yesterday.

    Man it was a fun series though. I'm still rooting for the Os cause it's so much fun to see them succeed.

    I was a cubs fan because of WGN but man were we spoiled in the 90s for only having two stations to have teams. Braves with maybe the greatest 3 pitcher combo in the history of the league (Glavine, Smoltz, Maddux) with their hitting (Pendleton, etc) and the Cubs (Sandberg, Grace, Dawson, etc). Fun times.

    But then I became a die hard Ms fan. I guess I just wasn't sad enough and needed more reasons lmao.

    Man that Royals' manager is cruel as fuck to leave Lyles in there. Must've boned his wife...

    Well now Servais looks like a moron for leaving the rookie in. How many times this year have mariners' defenders been unable to figure out who catches the fly ball? Fuck me. Little league stuff.

    they have a terrible bullpen. Munoz is done

    It was a rollercoaster, but they really needed that one.

    Nothing like a nice little morning game for the series win. Go M's!

    Bobby Witt Jr. sure has shown up. Dude has some skills, no doubt.

    Half game back of TOR. They got the reds in Cincy so TOR may feast. Huge series.

    Screw Toronto... catch Houston. You're only 3.5 back. Win this series and take advantage of the upcoming soft schedule and the M's could be in front of the Astros by the time Labor Day rolls around.

    I believe!

    It's possible, but I only trust them to pass one team so far lol. Would love it though, cause fuck Houston.
