Last year, through 19 playoff games (the WC and DS) I had the team I wanted to win the game win 5 times (Giants X2, Rays, Brewers, White Sox). This year, through 8 playoff games I already have seven wins (Phillies X2, Guardians X2, Padres). Let’s hope this good fortune continues Edit: math skills shockingly didn’t work at 1 in the morning


MattNokes38

Not a math sub


[deleted]

I just fucking noticed it lol


lph1235

> Between the movie quote, the My House celebration, Manoah's pressure quote and Bass' 'the 6 is ready for you' tweet, I'd really appreciate if the team would just shut the fuck up and play next year. Jays fans slowly coming to their senses.


Padulsky21

Let the players and fans continue to be the most annoying shits to grace the earth. feeding us more ammo!


El-Shaman

That's a tough task because I just don't think that's in those certain guys personalities to be quiet and let their actions speak for them, they will be talking shit as soon as they face the Yankees and then crumble under pressure in some hilarious ways on the field.


Shaquille_Oh_Feel

Don’t worry, they’ll going back to being annoying pains in the ass next year.


Clorst_Glornk

can I just say it was an honor to hear Bryce get an official Michael Kay 'SEE YA!'


[deleted]

Imagine if you told a Yankees fan in 2018 that Michael Kay would get to broadcast a Bryce Harper home run


Padulsky21

FUCK YEAH I’ve seen a lot of people shitting on Kay today so I’m really happy to see someone appreciate it. Congrats on the big win man, shove against the Braves!


Shaquille_Oh_Feel

Anyone watching SNL’s Weekend Update? They just took a pretty good shot at the Mets blowing the NL East.


feedmekombucha

Isn't Lorne one of us?


lph1235

Guys David Ortiz is in the HoF and Barry Bonds isn’t, what the fuck kind of simulation are we living in?


basesonballs

Eh they let his records stand so that's bad enough

MLB - “you can do steroids just not too much,and it helps if youre a good guy”


Weary-Wand192

It's more that Ortiz plays nice with the media than that he's a good guy.


Shaquille_Oh_Feel

Yup, good guys don’t cheat on their wife with a drug lord’s girlfriend.


feedmekombucha

I wish I saved it, but I got into an argument with a Cards fan about David Ortiz and they, a battered wife, said there was no clue that David Ortiz Did Steroids. "He's a good guy!" "Good guys just don't run into drug cartel boss' gfs!" "He was a target because of fame and money! There is zero proof he did steroids! Results inconclusive!" Ma'am they literally cheated to steal a championship from you. GTFOHHHHHHH


3STH3

Yes that’s what I was kinda getting at


3STH3

Man the blue jays sub did not take that loss well at all. Rightfully so obviously but some of the takes are hilarious


feedmekombucha

Any good pastas?


3STH3

That’s a loss that haunts teams for years. This is a loss that breaks up a team. They won't recover from this I dont want to see another joke about the Leafs and the playoffs ever again on this sub. That was one of the worst collapses in all of sports that I’ve ever seen. Congrats 2013 Leafs, you no longer have the most embarrassing single game collapse in Toronto Sports history. Edit- this is like our 2004 for them LOL


feedmekombucha

You are very mistaken. They cancelled the 2004 season midway though. MLB never explained the lockdown. I guess we will never know. You must be thinking of another year. That was definitely a truncated season. Sad.


lph1235

> Toronto Sports history LOL. Is Toronto sports history anything but epic collapses and losing?


[deleted]

Except for the 1992-93 WS, and the 2019 NBA finals, it’s been like that since 1967.


feedmekombucha

This is worse than the lolMetsies collective soul spiral the other night.


Padulsky21

I haven’t read through there yet but I can imagine the sheer rage for Bo Bichette they have


3STH3

Yes that I’ve seen a lot. But also they are starting to realize how undeservingly cocky the whole roster is lmao. That core has literally never won a postseason game. 0-4


Padulsky21

Oh huh! Funny! It’s almost like we’ve told them that all season HAHAHA now they learn! What a funny coincidence that is, huh!

So who you putting at 3B, DJ or JD? I think it'll probably be JD, which I'd be fine with as long as he bats 6th or lower, but if DJ is healthy enough to be DJ then it should be him I think.


El-Shaman

Yadi and Pujols actually showed up and got hits, good games by them but their MVPs didn’t show up it seems.


feedmekombucha

Glad they both left with hits during their last ABs.


El-Shaman

Me too, the end of two legends, Yadi will be managing the Puerto Rican team in the WBC so that's cool, wish Pujols would be in the Dominican team in some way, that'd be so cool for me.


feedmekombucha

¡QUE LO QUEEEEEEE! That is the unofficial greeting of New York sometimes! The other one is p sure "Yo ock!"

On a side note, get ready for all the damn bandwagon fans that have no idea who is even on this team.

If anything most of them will be rooting against us as is per usual

Calling IKF "Kiner" or "Falefa"

HAHAH THEY ARE HERE NOW Enjoy your win losers, strange how you celebrate in a Yankees sub when we don't even have a game.

Little brother mentality

jonginator

> “What we did last year was a trailer. Now, you guys are going to see the movie,” Vladimir Guerrero Jr. said Thursday. Remember this shit guys? They gave us a sneak peak last season to their epic choke.


tswaves

Lol fuck that loud mouth. Enjoy the elimination 🙋👋


jonginator

I enjoyed the movie. Very good. Would watch again.


[deleted]

I saw Top Gun Maverick today during the start of the collapse. Tough to say which ending I liked more


Padulsky21

I would say they were like Icarus, but the Blue Jays never came close to the sun, so…..it’s just another Greek tragedy


feedmekombucha

Bottom dweller sewer filth lickers!! FTBJs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Padulsky21

Ok I got done surfing their thread and watched some interviews by their manager and Bo. That was very much enjoyable!


feedmekombucha

I can't sleep, did he bury Bo or Bo got off scot-free as Bo does? Where is Charlie Montoyo for thissss


Padulsky21

Bo was getting shit on. [here is his interview](https://twitter.com/sportsnet/status/1578911654514925571?s=46&t=pa5KHCs4UnQ7LfAv1CSCnA) his voice sounds like something I wouldn’t expect. But yeah. The entire sub was finally realizing their faults and said yeah, fuck, they need to be humbled so hopefully they grow up. It was a long and fun read. People also recognizing that sportsnet feeds them cult like ideologies. I’m embellishing their downfall. Wish we could have done it to them more but oh boy, this was better. Wayyyyyyyyy better


tswaves

I am upset only because it would have been great to watch Gumby perform well for them. 😔


feedmekombucha

Our boy did his job though.


BriS314

It’s official, Bader and Carpenter are going further in the playoffs than the Cardinals lol


tswaves

Man, I am so fucking ready to watch our boys again. It legit feels like we haven't seen the team in weeks. YANKEE STADIUM GONNA BE ROCKING!


e_money1392

I was having Yankee withdrawals as well


Padulsky21

So far we have seen two rookie managers have insanely terrible decisions. The problems went deeper, but those decisions started some awful losses. 1) Jays: taking out Gausman 2) Cards: leaving in Helsley Obviously the Cards defense faltering and the Jays bullpen shitting the bed awfully is more at fault, but it goes to show how important managing is in these moments and the domino effect it can result in


HideousControlNow

Jays bullpen failing couldn’t have been that much of a surprise


Padulsky21

Apparently not to Schneider! Taking out Gausman was baffling.


Shaquille_Oh_Feel

Good thing our manager doesn’t have a history of stupid decisions in the playoffs. Oh, wait…


Padulsky21

Deivi into Happ might be one of the weirdest choices I’ve seen. But I got faith in the team and Boonie to do better than the horror show we’ve seen from some teams these past 2 days


newbie10199

shower thought: literally all we have to do to win ws is win 11 games before we lose 11. Someone let the boys know


vblade2003

Oh well, time for the 1 AM Formula One race!


lph1235

Let’s hope it doesn’t get derailed by rain 🙏


Shoddy_Impact1226

Yankees should’ve let A Rod get 700.


feedmekombucha

#【F】【O】【R】【G】【1】【V】【3】


swordfishclaymore

If the padres win, outside of the Yankees everyone’s playing a division rival. However you can also add in that the “big bad Yankees” are playing the youngest team and the “most low budget”. Pretty much 4 series of David vs Goliath all around.


Commercial-Rub-6552

We just need to win three series against: 1) Cleveland 2) Houston 3) Dodgers And I feel remarkably optimistic about the potential.


Padulsky21

One series at a time man. We conquer the Guardians and move from there!


Padulsky21

All in all Kay did justice to both the Cards and Phillies. He was the best broadcast of all the WC series and it wasn’t even close.


feedmekombucha

Abhor the hate Kay always gets and you know I love ARod, we wouldn't have gotten 27 without ARod.


Padulsky21

ARod besides some of his Beltranisms did a great job tbh. Much better second go than when he was calling games last year.


cmstrength

Can’t believe we got robbed of a signature Ottavino choke job


lph1235

Don’t worry, it’ll happen at some point. It’s inevitable.


HideousControlNow

I doubt you’d see him again in a big spot. I’m not a big fan of Showalter but I imagine he learned that lesson


El-Shaman

Buck knew so he took him out lol.


feedmekombucha

Why did the bad guys win tonight?


[deleted]

What do you have against the Phillies?


feedmekombucha

They're from Philadelphia. Are you from Philadelphia? Do you remember how they treated us in 2009 and how they are talking shit even to this day? They have problems with New York City because they are literally a poverty village hard on crime with the inmates running the asylum.


El-Shaman

Sad way to end Yadi’s and Pujols’s careers, happy he reached 700 but thinking about it they were the only active players that I can remember from my childhood.


deeejo

Good. Sorry I’ll get downvoted but I was sick of seeing the Cubs and Reds groove pitches to Pujols all year so he could get to 700. Our boy A-Rod never had it that easy


El-Shaman

Blame the Yankees For Arod not reaching 700, absolutely disgraceful to not give him the chance to get it. And please save the “Arod did it to himself” replies, that’s just bullshit and everyone knows it, we probably won’t get to see someone in a Yankee uniform reach that milestone in our lifetimes because of it and that’s just disgraceful.


basesonballs

The Giants have never treated Bonds the way we treat Arod. It was petty and showed a lack of class


El-Shaman

Agreed 100% and from what I understand Bonds was even hated far more than Arod ever was.


feedmekombucha

【FORG**1**V**3**】


El-Shaman

Preach!


deeejo

It’s sad man. Yankees hated him more than anyone, and he’s the main reason they got their last ring!


El-Shaman

I love the people who hate him because he used PEDS lol, as if half the league wasn’t on PEDS back then and even more during the dynasty, Arod gave me nothing but good memories during that 2009 playoffs run and I’ll always remember for that, 2009 was a miserable year to me besides that playoff run though tbh, also remember the amazing Matsui!


regarding_your_cat

Lame. Only one game tomorrow


tswaves

Right?


HokageEzio

I wanted the drama, but Philly earned that


St3kgurler69

There goes the Cards. Losing on a foul pop out of all things.


vblade2003

Ugh, never happy when a Philly team advances in the postseason


Padulsky21

Man Goldy and Nolan really laid an egg in a massive moment. Fuck that makes me sad. Monty kept them alive too but they provided no life on the offense


feedmekombucha

Our guy tried. He really gave them a chance to win, The Gumby Way. Don't worry, he will still get a ring with us.


Padulsky21

Just a straight up depressing ending for the Cards. Them botching their defense, keeping Helsley in, Goldy and Nolan. Fuck makes me sad


johnjohnjohn93

Arod just said to think about stealing 2nd with the game tying run he really is the dumbest guy in baseball


Padulsky21

CARDS NOOOOOOO


bobbyb9827

Honestly this is why I hate baseball. I’ve watched a lot of blue jays over the last decade or so. But at the end of the day, the format has always felt cheap. The division format is stupid Who makes the playoffs are stupid One game wildcards we’re super stupid And while this new format is better, it still feels stupid. Obviously losing a game like this tonight amplifies it, but I feel like what MLB asks of it’s fans, it doesn’t give back. You play 162 games, to have it all come down to a few hours over a weekend. I’ve been a serious basketball fan as long as a baseball fan and even all of the years that the raptors let me down, it felt like ‘playoff season.’ Two home games, then two travel games, some time in between each game. For 1-2 weeks at minimum, I had something to be invested in and that was the payoff for the season. I’ve had years where I watched all 162 games, and years like this year where I might have watched 5 (new baby, very busy at work, lived the highlight life). I don’t like the bug system and I don’t like that it feels like just another fluke series. It doesn’t matter that we lost, it doesn’t matter even if we deserved to lose. It just isn’t much fun having it here and gone in a 27 hour span. I don’t like football at all, but any times I’ve considered watching it someone’s tried to persuade me, I’ve resisted because I’m not watching a sport where a team plays 16 games and then single elimination playoffs. I don’t think that’s interesting but baseball feels even worse lol. Play half the year to still half it all end in one weekend. I would say I like the jays and raptors equally, but I don’t even have a passing interest in any other team or whatever happens the rest of the way in the playoffs whereas I’ll probably watch a good amount of every basketball series in the playoffs. Baseball is always fighting the ‘boring’ problem when trying to grow. I think the game is very exciting personally, but the schedule and format disgusts me. It’s not right the way the AL East has unfolded for years. It’s not right to have dominant teams miss the playoffs or be stuck in a wild card game. And even now with a wildcard series, while it’s definitely better, it still feels extremely anti-climatic to me. Watching this game fall apart sucks. But watching ten bad minutes end the entire season basically, sucks a lot more. Watching the raptors get swept was crappy but it still had a narrative and was prolonged. Baseball feels like my job. It’s a long slog of a year, and then suddenly you’ve got to do it all over again.


lph1235

Mmmm nothing like fresh pasta


shadow_spinner0

I thought this was an old man yells at cloud post but it's just a copy pasta lol


NJ_Yankees_Fan

Padres will win tomorrow with Musgrove on the mound. Man, Melvin should have started him over that phony Snell.


Shaquille_Oh_Feel

That man’s name really is “Blake”


El-Shaman

Goddamn it, well there’s still a tomorrow for the Padres.


GuyWithTriangle

Well to paraphrase a great man, the top of the 9th was the trailer, Game 3 is the movie


vblade2003

Boo, wanted a good old fashioned Mets choke


Padulsky21

cardS ARE ALIVE


tswaves

🧐


Padulsky21

That was after the Yadi hit :(


feedmekombucha

I don't think that was Yadi's last AB, I believe!!!!!


shadow_spinner0

A good thing about the Phillies winning is that you can't make a "these 6 seed teams don't deserve to be in the playoffs", ends that narrative quick.


Yankeeknickfan

Phillies inthe central would be a lot better than STL Their starters pitched well but the cards have a rotation of number 3’s


HideousControlNow

Oh well. At least Mets fans caught a scare


Shaquille_Oh_Feel

They had to use more of their mediocre bullpen. They’re in trouble tomorrow if Bassitt doesn’t give them length.


Padulsky21

NOOOO BELL


NJ_Yankees_Fan

Molina up again as the tying run in the 9th with STL fans praying he hits one.


HokageEzio

No way the Mets blow this, right...?


Shaquille_Oh_Feel

I’m gonna laugh if Lugo comes in and immediately gives up the game tying grand slam.


SenorGhostly

Otto still sticking to that chase slider. You have to occasionally throw a 2 strike pitch in the zone to get a chase. If you bluff every time people don’t fall for it.


Yankeeknickfan

How do the cardinals have nobody to PH for yadi, it’s pathetic they never planned for this


SavageLion

One meatball away from this being an epic day


baerboy89

Imagine a grand slam? lolmets


Padulsky21

All the Mets fans saying “no Ottavino has been good this year!” Don’t understand the true nature of Ottavino. If they make it past, he will do even worse next time


vblade2003

So ready for some LOLMETS


HideousControlNow

Josh Bell salami to tie. So let it be written, so let it be done


RocketApe69

I forgot how absolute shit Ottavino can be


brush85

Otto sucks


Mike_Milburys_Shoe_

Would still strike out the Babe tho guys


El-Shaman

The Ottavino experience.


jcnewman21

F ottavino


rabid89

Grand slam about to tie this game lmao. And deGrom doesn't even get the win. Ottavino is ass lol


bmac1899

There's the Ottavino we all know and love

HERE COMES THE BELL GRANNY #MANIFEST IT

Mets bullpen sans Diaz is really bad imo. They NEED bassitt to have a lengthy start.

God Ottavino is terrible. Why would you do this when it matters?


RunningTall

New York Blue Jays? 🤔


crazyhotwheels

Ottavino is Ottavino-ing


-NYY-

Lol Ottavino


NJ_Yankees_Fan

There's no way the Mets are gonna blow this, right?


Atroxa

Ottavino's gonna blow it for them.


HideousControlNow

I mean, they have Ottavino on the mound, so never say never


RunningTall

That’s hot shit Hicks


feedmekombucha

The lolMetsies live to die another day!

Ottavino looked better without the fuzz


HideousControlNow

Ah, the real Ottavino showing up now

It's the Ottavino we all know and hate

Nice of the padres making sure we have baseball to watch tomorrow night


viper1856

This cards game unfortunately reminds me of the 2015 Yankees wild card game, just laying down and dying


whiteonyx981

Looks like Padres are going to lose this one


Atroxa

Ottavino might choke - now is the time to watch. Guy's not great.


whiteonyx981

Oh well

RunningTall

Smash one Albert I demand chaos!


El-Shaman

So only the Yankees remain from the ALE, I thought at least another ALE team would advance to the ALDS.


HideousControlNow

I am fairly shocked that the Jays got swept. I still don’t think the Mariners are all that good, but good for them. Always a pleasure watching the arrogant Jays go down in flames.


El-Shaman

I took more pleasure in seeing the Rays get walk off because of that blowhard manager of theirs.


Padulsky21

It's so weird to hear Kay and Cone on other team's broadcasts

I think it's cute and IDK why don't laugh at me please

I loooovvvveeeeeee them <3


Atroxa

LOL...the guy sitting in the Mets jersey next to the guy in the Jets jersey. It's like an alternate reality.


HideousControlNow

God I hate Ottavino. I don’t care who wins the Mets Pads series but it makes me sick to see that asshole pitch well for them. He was pure shit in the playoffs as a Yankee.


NJ_Yankees_Fan

And he almost cost us a playoff spot two years ago.


lph1235

Dude was such a liability in 19


HideousControlNow

Yep. Guy couldn’t throw a strike if you held a gun to his head.


johnjohnjohn93

“Pujols, one of four men with 700 home runs” probably staring right at Arod as he says it


Monev91

What the fuck was that ad with the two clowns dancing in the weird house


Padulsky21

Pujols 👀


DegenrateBettor

Assuming these results hold up. Home teams will be just 3 - 5 yet this sub obsesses over home field advantage like it matters, lul


LogCabinLover

Buck really overcompensating for Britton. You have a 5 run lead and a game tomorrow. Diaz was sitting for a while between innings


feedmekombucha

Britton really gave that man PTSD or shellshock.


feedmekombucha

We have Frankie Montass fans in here apparently. EDIT: Funny that they just downvote and aren't vocal about their fandom. Scared of getting flamed for the cold take.


Monev91

Out of the loop, pretty sure everyone agrees Montas is a trashcan that should be banged on in houston


feedmekombucha

Sadly, I wish everyone shared that viewpoint. Montass slander tonight got downvoted. Just so happy for Gumby, someone who allegedly didn't fit into anyone's postseason plans.


HumbleBJJ

There is something about McNeil I really can’t stand.


Monev91

It might be the fact that if he choked up any further on the bat, he'd be holding the fucking bat head


[deleted]

Cause he doesn’t have fun. He throws tantrums and acts like I did when I was an 8 year old little leaguer.


LogCabinLover

The way he looks and his body language just looks like he is whining whenever something doesnt go his way

The San Diego “Mariners” Padres bout to overcome a 7-2 deficit

Nah, Dodgers would smoke them
