I do like that they’re keeping the AL in NL stadiums and NL in AL stadiums. Only way a team gets a true home field advantage is if the a Rangers make the a World Series (which they won’t as they won’t even qualify for the postseason). And, if it’s anything like the NHL bubble, home and away will still alternate during the series. They’re not going to have the Dodgers get to be the home team for their entire playoff run and never have to bat first. They’ll still rotate the home and away team during the 7 game series like they normally do.Absolutely.
They get to wear the home uniforms and call the stadium "our place".
Was interesting to watch Snitker during his interview with Mad Dog today. Russo kept badgering him about the rotation (like every other reporter has for weeks), and he almost looked like he was smirking. Almost got the feeling that they're not unhappy at all to have given Fried a little break to help him be fresher and that he knows something that everyone else doesn't.
Not saying we're getting first-half 2018 Hamels and September 2018 Folty back this week, but it almost felt like that while he was answering. Had that cat that ate the canary look and just grinned the whole time.
