These playoffs have been weird, huh? For my money, I’ll be glad never to see another best-of-three series in the MLB again. It’s just too quick—it feels like a sucker punch.
Another thing—if you like upsets and big-market behemoths getting their comeuppance, this has not been not a playoff season for you. The Rays, Yankees, and the Dodgers skated into the division series easily, with three teams knocked out on Wednesday: the Twins (poor Twins), the Blue Jays (heh), and the Indians (sad face). Yesterday, three more bit the dust: the Brewers, the White Sox, and the Reds.
