10/2 Rockies (LHP Kyle Freeland 17-7, 2.85, 202.1 IP, 173K:70BB) @ Cubs (LHP Jon Lester 18-6, 3.32, 181.2 IP, 149K:64BB) 8:00 pm ET, ESPN 10/3 Athletics (TBA) @ Yankees (TBA) 8:00 pm ET, TBS MLB StandingsMLB ScoreboardMLB TransactionsA note regarding moderating of the gameday threads in 2018: As the disclaimer has always said, in the past, we have been very liberal in moderating the Gameday threads. They're meant to be a lot less formal than other threads on the forum, so to moderate them the same way would be silly. However, we do ask posters to maintain a certain level of decorum in these threads, and we plan on moderating the Gameday threads a little more actively this season. In particular, we ask that posters refrain from being overly repetitive with their posts (if you've made your point, let it go), refrain from monopolizing the discussion (if you are making more than a couple posts in a row, you probably need to slow down a little bit), and of course, follow the Ground Rules ( link). The point is to make these threads worth participating in and fun for all posters, from our long-time fixtures to people just signing up today. -The Management

Getting ahead of myself in the thread, but I guess one upside of possibly playing the Yankees is the prime TV viewing spots.

Glad Arenado hit a sac fly, I would have hated to see the game altered by a bad ump decision.

Thank god it's TBS and not Fox or ESPN. ESPN2 stats broadcast is certainly different. Kinda the exact opposite of Jonny Gomes.

Old man Matt Holliday with the double. He’s also a lot slower than 2007 Holliday.

Jon Lester is sharp. Miss having a known postseason stud.

And then Freeland is all "shake it off Dahl, I'll just throw the double play pitch."

Imagine if the Cubs and Yankees both lost the wild card game?

MLB just screwed up another replay challenge in one of the biggest elimination games of the year. Buterra looked clearly safe.

Don’t understand why he’s going to Davis now?? A batter too late.

I was wrong about Happ starting the wild card game. The Yankees are going with Severino.
