This has been over for a while now. Horton has 10 wins and a sub-3 ERA for a high-profile team that’s going to the postseason. He is getting the most votes.
Correct. If anyone is seriously emotionally invested in the Falcons, that's on them. Quite literally before the game, I texted a group thread, "Happy first Sunday of second and third quarter napping and waking up to watch the Falcons screw it up in entertaining fashion to all who celebrate."
16 straight coming up against the Phillies, Cubs, Mariners, and Astros. Throw in three with the Tigers. And we've been bad against bad teams. I think we'll be ok.
MLB just continues to cut itself below the knees. Dodgers-Padres going back and forth. The one competitive division race. Two teams that thorougly dislike each other. And their Sunday game isn't being nationally televised.
Hate that for Wheeler. He's an outstanding pitcher who we should have signed years ago. Of course if we had, this probably would have happened to him right away.
The AL/NL concept has already been neutered by interleague play and every team playing every team. That said - a bunch of teams would still have to play a couple time zones away to balance the leagues.
