Braves are the same as the Cleveland Indians, ever since the 1990s when they only won 1 World Series with Sid Justice, and then never won with Chipper Jones, they are the chokers. Now, with Freddie Freeman, they can't win, like last yr against the Cardd😭😭😭

Dodgers will have a talk task beating the Devil Rays, the AL is bigger and stronger than the NL, but the DH is enacted for all 7 games😆😆😆

Cali teams are the best 49ers and Rams went to Superbowl, Rams lost due to no Cooper Kupp, Lakers won and Dodgers are on the brink. When Verlander is injured they like se, they are owned by Nolan Ryan

The Rays may be the third team this century without a Hall of Famer to win a title after just 1 (maybe 2) last century. (Blake Snell has an ok shot, hard to say so early with pitchers. Angels had Lackey and K-Rod and you just can't count on it. Glasnow will need to be a very late bloomer.) To do so, they will need to beat a third superteam with at least 4-5 likely Hall of Famers. Can't say they wouldn't have earned it!

ByteDance the Chinese company has a 15% stake in the Astros, so if you wanna find suspicion there it is.

I could argue each of the Rays last three general managers (including the current one) are likely going to end up in the Hall of Fame if the Rays keep doing what they are doing with so little payroll.

If you want to make an argument on a technicality (and make a very, very long-term bet), Wander Franco is in the 40-man player pool they submitted for the playoffs, even though he probably won't play. Hasn't played above Class A, but if you're picking a future Hall of Famer off this roster...

Remaining states that have title contenders

Lakers and Lightning already clinched and Dodgers are favored
Rams, Chiefs, Saints, Bears Packers, Bucs, Ravens and Seahawks remain in football

That's as goofy as saying Pete Buttigieg will win in a landslide in 2048.

Great graphic, my friend. Arrowhead Stadium for Chiefs is in Missouri fyi! Pittsburgh and Tennessee look good too as undefeated, could challenge Lamar Jackson again but Mahomes is too good!!! Derrick Henry almost won last year.

Don't underestimate the NFC every team that Bears, Graham, Bucs Gronk, Rams Kupper Cupp have great tight ends that can beat Kelce. The Niners Kittle lost to Kelce, his shoulder is injured and still is, that's why he wears a pad on his shoulder

It's probably Chiefs v Bucs with Kelce v Gronk but who knows. That's why the Packers lost to Bucs due to Gronk.

But the Rams have Kupper Cupp and Bears have Graham

Mookie Betts know the Rays fully well, that's why he stole bases on them last night, he was in the AL Red Sox, and Cory Seagar didn't play in playoffs last year

Dual title for Cali, this is important just in case Bucs with Brady win the title in Football. Gronk is not Kittle, he can beat Kelce

Lakers
Dodgers Dual Champs


Lightning ⚡
Bucs Dual Champs in Football, everyone else are probably done


My map stands correct

Rays were the weaker team for Dodgers, Astros which beat us, or the Yanks could have beaten us

That was probably the most wonderful play of baseball I've seen in some years.

Absolutely beautiful.

The Rays only tied the Series let's put things in perspective, but Will Smith suddenly has controversy now. They should play Barnes the rest of the Series, this is only Smith's second yr, he is a minor league catcher. Barnes would have saved that run


This is how the AL plays they have the DH and they aren't totally out of it, that's why they have won the title in 3/4 yrs. The only team to beat the AL with Hunter Pence were the Giants and he stole bases

Probably the map of the rooting interests of Dodgers v Rays, and Mark Pryor is a Cub, pitching coach of Dodgers
