Good morning, Birdland!

The LCS matchups in the respective leagues couldn’t be more different.

On the NL side, we have two wild cards that both slayed their in-division dragons to get to this point. The Phillies took down the defending champion Braves, and the Padres knocked off the juggernaut Dodgers. Regardless of who ends up getting a spot in the World Series, it will be a fresh face.

On the AL side, it’s the Astros...again. They have been in every ALCS since 2017. In some ways, that is encouraging as an Orioles fan who currently has an Astros alum calling the shots.
