After two thrilling wild-card games the 2016 MLB postseason kicks into high gear, starting Thursday with the two American League Division Series and continuing Friday with the NLDS. Here's what to expect in all four matchups.
Rangers vs. Blue Jays
The Narrative: Baseball in the octagon. This is the rematch of not only the hotly contested 2015 ALDS, but also the Rougned Odor vs. Jose Bautista one-sided fight at second base in May, when Odor pounded Bautista with a fist to the jaw. Bautista told me shortly after the incident that Odor, while turning a double play, “tried 100% to hit me in the face” with his throw.
