Just realized how crappy it must be to have your trophy presentation in the locker room.
Not hype at all.
Dont think youll care when you JUST WON THE WORLD SERIES

Obviously.
Just acknowledging it can’t be nearly as hype as celebrating on the field/court with all your fans, confetti, etc.
Def not but i think the only people who notice that are players who won already haha
Royals are gonna be good for a longgggg time, I remember last year’s playoffs where they were sweeping everybody magical stuff.
My favorite team postseason performances i was alive for
- Rocktober, 2007 Colorado Rockies. There will never be another performance by a team like this ever again. The run thru september the one game playoff the mad dash to the world series too bad they got frozen by the schedule delay
- 2002 bonds. I dont think as a position player it was possible to be more automatic and dominant in the post season. The shot against atlanta that made the hitting coach scream the blast into the cove and lets not forget his series home runs including the furthest ball tim salmon had ever seen hit
- 2001 diamondbacks just cause they shitted on the yankees at the height of their powers, starting a decade of misery for the least liked but most bandwagoned team in sports
- 2004 redsox cause that alcs still gives me goosebumps
- Bautista bat flip
Predictions and hopes for next year
ALE
-yankees suck but a-rod keeps raking hope he hits 700 just to piss all the old white baseball ppl off
-redsox also suck, letting the hockey crowd blue jays and the swag machine machado-led orioles fight for the division
ALC
-royals stay pissed off, stay throwing at people, stay getting into fights
-i wouldnt mind seeing another team do well from this divosion…someone…anyone?
ALW
-as long as anyone but the angels win it im cool
NLE
-harper keeps his swag on lock, hits another 40 bombs. Pitchig staff doesnt implode, papelbon is gone letting the team ve the team and they get into the postseason…or do they?
-more hilarity from fartolo
-wouldnt mind seeing the phillies do good too
NLC
-everyone shits on the cardinals
-pirates win the division
-cubs can do well too i guess
-lolbrewers
NLW
-rockies trade cargo to toronto to join tulo and i buy another hat
–padres and giants slap fight over the division meanwhile the dodgers take it
Good shit Royals. Now to wait and see which player the Ms overpay this offseason just to not get the value.

Lincecum. It’s going to be Lincecum.
You can see the exact moment their hearts break.
Them Royals. deGrom seemed like he was really fatigued in G2, he only got 3 swing and misses. It seemed like at that point you knew the series was over.
Those Royal’s bats are fuckin scary though. Good for them.
Sometime within the next couple of seasons CLE-LAND is gonna be legit. Lindor is gonna be great and they have a pretty good rotation. At least I hope so. I actually grew up watching the CC/Lee/Sizemore/PRONK Tribe but moved to pgh this year so they took over. Gonna try and keep up with the Indians next year. Fuck the pgh/cle rivalry it doesn’t exist in baseball.
I’ve said it before but I’m just hoping the pirates are competitive next year because they are going to have some serious young talent in '17. They can do some things in the offseason to stay good but idk what is going to happen. This pirates roster is in some flux: they’re standing to possibly lose: Walker*,Alvarez*,Burnett**, Rami**, Melancon, Watson^, Caminero, Happ*^. Plus Kang’s injury status is still pretty unknown, though be has been seen around the city just using crutches and generally looking pretty good, hope he is in shape to play opening day.
-
- Have prospects in AAA who can probably come up and play next year.
** - Definitely gone.
^ - Guys I really want them to resign.
Neil walker is probably back for next year since they probably don’t want Hansen as starting 2B coming out of spring training.

edit:
If we’re talking predictions, I may as well call upon the ultimate bullshit:
It’s an even year in 2016 so the Giants are going to stay healthy and win the World Series.
Panik didn’t make any errors at 2nd and made that play in Game 7 (glove flip double play)
Pence was crushing it almost as well as Sandoval.
Belt was getting base hits every win and scored in G7.
Morse was the random clutch player in G7.
Crawford/Perez(who?) were clutch for G5.
Bullpen was clutch for G4 after Vogelsong went 2.2+ and allowed all 4R. <3 Petit & Affeldt.
Some oddity. Even though Gregor Blanco and Crawford didn’t do much hitting/walking, they did take a LOT of pitches per PA, along with Belt and Pence.
Nope! Cardinals not winning in an odd year is directly tied to the Giants winning in even years. They sold their soul to the devil and the devil lost.
Article about Mattingly’s new gig starts with the headline “Optimistic Marlins…”
A great use of an oxymoron there.
Dusty baker mustve been really desperate the nats dont pay their managers well at all
Life is so empty now without a game to look forward to
Hey whens the world baseball classic thing again wasnt it sposeta be every two years?
It’s every 4 years. Next one’s in 2017.
This could work but prob wont
Girardu did a great job and couldnt wait to leave to go to the yakees of all places
