I guess that's right, but with all the fabulous teams how did we end up Texas and Arizona?

I believe in early June or maybe June 1 give or take Texas was first in their division and Arizona was first in their, and these 2 teams (were behind only Tampa Bay who was red hot out of the gate) had the 2nd and 3rd best records in all of baseball, then they cooled off.......but they picked the perfect time to heat back up....but both were very good teams this year.

Phillies & Astros may have been a little too cocky.

But yah who would have guessed the Phillies will knock out the Braves, but the D-Backs will then knock out the Phillies. If this was a college basketball tourney pool EVERYONE would be out. THUS.....THE MOST UNPREDICTABLE PLAYOFFS EVER!!!!

So who gets a ring deGrom or Bumgarner?

With no interest in either team, I'll root for Scherzer I guess always liked him.

Bryce Harper still bringing championships to Washington (aka Texas).

It is a reach, but I’m good with it. He’ll be watching from afar.

I am happy both Philly and Houston are not in the World Series. I am not sure that the Networks airing the Games are not getting some bigger Market and/or story line teams for ratings.

It is good to see 2 teams that have not been there in a while in the Series. I do not care who wins it although funny that Degrom and Scherzer may win a championship.

I just hope that Scherzer chokes and gets smacked around even if his team wins it all. I just want to see him fail.

That might be one of my main reasons to watch when he pitches

I'm also glad Texas put out Houston and is off to the WS. I like former Jay Marcus Semien so I'm real happy for him.

Last night I was really hoping for an Arizona win. Not because I dislike the Phillies, but rather I was hoping Gurriel and Moreno, who the Jay's traded away, would be able to rub it in Shapiro's and Atkin's faces, like they did.

Now, concerning the WS, I'm in a real pickle as, like I mentioned above, I'd love to see those 3 win a WS, but, of course, that isn't going to happen.
On paper, I'd say Texas should win but with Arizona now having a ton of confidence, who knows?

Regardless, I'm just real happy the 3 I mentioned, former Jays, are going to the big dance as it proves, once again, Shapiro and Atkin's should not be involved in anything to do with baseball.
