Doesnt anyone care about baseball anymore?

Hope to god that Los Angeles doesnt get it. I played Florida +300 and Philly +125 last week. I figured the only other team that could get it was Los Angeles. They have gone 7-2 since I made the plays.

Olympic Had Florida to get Wild Card at +300, and then quickly dropped it to +275 only about a week ago.

Would like to see Seattle get in instead of Boston and would be good for the country.

Who does the team with the best record play in the first round of the playoffs ?

Do they play the wild care team automatically or the team with the worst record ?

In both leagues, the wild card team will have a better record than the central division winner.

If Atlanta finishes with the best record in the national league do they play the wild card team or the central division winner ?

YEAH RIGHT!

 

[DannyMay]

Boston is going to get it. They have a much much easier scheduke the rest of the way. 7 games with Tampa Bay, while Seattle has 7 games with Oakland.

 

[Fishhead]

Tampa will not go down lightly.

 

[jjgold]

Boston chokes down the stretch, they have done it before and will do it again, what a shame.

Danny - about who plays who, this is what I read. The wildcard can not play the division winner in their own division. So Atlanta can not play Florida in the first round if Marlins win wildcard, they would play the division winner with the worst record. Florida as the wildcard would play the team with the best record (other than their own division).

Hope this is correct.

I believe if fla or philly get in, they play san fran in first round, and atl plays central.

if la gets it they should play atl, and sf plays central.

I think that is right , but not 100 sure.

A team can't play a team in their division in the first round, I know that for sure.
