2016 MLB Postseason Thread

And if you want to get really nerdy about it, with an overall winning percentage against teams .500 or better of 65.9%, their expected number of wins vs. a .500+ team they play 19 times would be 12.5, and they beat the Astros 15 times. Without doing the math, it can't be THAT many deviations away from the mean

Also, you can't just remove outliers, that's not statistically pure or safe.

Hopefully tonight is a slugfest
Should be

Is there a chance Verlander wins the Cy? That almost seems unheard of based on where he was two years ago.

would be awesome but doubt it

 

[Mexi]

My boy Hyun Soo Kim is gonna go yard tonight 

 

[CameronCrazy06]

I don't know how he became your boy, but I approve of that message.

 

[elcheato]

there's an extensive process, i don't even know all the details 
 
although if you're from Korea, it expedites that process. 

 

[elcheato]

Bourn is starting, the Orioles are doomed 

 

[Phil The Thrill]

I want a jays and rangers rematch so bad just for the potential entertainment value.

 

[elcheato]

And the Jays are starting Carrera? 
 
Employing former Indians outfielders is a losing strategy imo 

 

[Teagz]

If there was a prop on Zeke Carrera making a game altering error tonight I would be on that shit so fast. I can't believe he's still in the majors.

TBS getting half of the playoffs every year is a travesty. They show like 10 games during the regular season and their announcers always suck.

ron darling is the mets regular announcer
Last year in the dodgers mets series he was such a homer

 

[Mexi]

Stroman sucks but the O's do to

Lets go

 

[elcheato]

I mean, the alternatives are ESPN, and then Joe Buck on Fox. 
 
I do like Dan Shulman tho
