"If MLB and the Mets and Braves want to avoid a doubleheader on Monday an extreme solution would be to move to a neutral site such as Houston and play two games Thursday. The Florida stadiums would be better but both cities are under a tropical storm warning"

"@quack_attack22 @3boyzdad Well they won the [----] World Series by hitting a lot of homers. And they lost in [----] and [----] because they allowed a lot of homers. Last year they were out-homered 11-3. History has shown that the team with the most homers in a playoff series usually wins"

"@3boyzdad @quack_attack22 I understand that impulse but in the postseason it's really hard to string together hits because you're usually facing some of the best pitchers in the league. So you need to be able to hit homers when you're able to get guys on. Manufacturing runs can be really hard in October"
