I'm sure this has come up before, but come September, why don't away NL teams list the previous days SP as that days SP? That way if a team bats around top 1, they can throw up one of the 18 hitters that are on the bench and not give up an easy out in the first. Not really losing much but doing so imo

I just took a look at the win totals and odds from the OP. It was a little disappointing the Brewers choked in that recent three-game losing streak, but man, that would've been a nice sweat to put a few bucks on them winning the NL (+2000) or WS (+5000).

Their predicted win total was 69.5. At 83 wins right now - it's been a fun season, regardless of how this week turns out.

Just saw this one. I'm sure the 'rotation so good you can't even buy it' will be epic next year.

At some point you have to realize the ****ty scouting and development is the problem.

I'm ready for next week already!

It's so lame that with as tightly bunched as the AL Wild Card race was for months that it was settled with a week to go.

Oops

This is quite a stretch for a “stat”! Also I cannot for the life of me figure out what the 5-letter censored word you used is.

Oops they'll just do it today. Bummer. Still in stl. Stretch? The last 5 WS Champs failed to make the post season. Your salt is showing

your jealousy of anything STL related is showing

Fun Stats from last 100 years:

2012 made playoffs
2007 missed
1983 missed
1968 made
1965 missed
1947 missed
1945 missed
1943 made
1935 missed
1932 missed
1927 missed

vs

2017 made

3/11 vs 1/1

I think I'll take the former

Last edited by xnbomb; 09-27-2017 at 10:13 AM. Reason: 3/11 seems really low, even if a lot were before 50% of teams make playoffs

I mean, it's mildly interesting, but bragging about is lol. Good for you guys though! Not sure why I would be salty, the Cardinals last won the WS in 2011 and most definitely made the playoffs the next year. And yes, you will almost certainly clinch the division in St. Louis, congrats on being unable to win this godawful division until (at least) September 27. Let's not pretend it's been a good season for either team thus far. Only the Brewers should feel good about themselves in the NL Central.
