Now that Tampa, Toronto, St. Louis and the Mets have been eliminated, it's time to get the postseason really rolling.

And let's see who ya like.

San Diego vs. Los Angeles
Philadelphia vs. Atlanta
Seattle vs. Houston
Cleveland vs. NY Yankees

I like the favorites but wouldn't be surprised if Seattle upsets Houston.

It’s interesting so see the fervency of the Padres crowds in San Diego. I think part of this is a byproduct of partially losing the Chargers.

Congrats JPM.

What I find interesting is over the last week or so, I read two stories about the current Dodgers 'dynasty' and how the Braves were built to sustain success. But it begs to question is there a difference between sustained success and championships?

IMHO, the current domination by the Dodgers is the same as the domination of that 'team of the decade' back in the 90's. Not the Yankees, who won 3 titles but the Braves who won one (and lost to the Yankees twice!!).

Their success makes a nice story but one championship in 10 years doesn't make a dynasty. Dynasties dominate as Champions. Remember the Bills dynasty of the early 90's? Right, what dynasty.
