The MLB should move back to a one-game Wild Card and make the Division Series a best-of-seven
I want to mix up the Playoff format again. I want to go back to the one-game Playoff for the Wild Card, and then I want to make the Division Series best-of-seven. I think it rewards teams with more depth. Something specific to the Braves-Philly series... this deserves to be seven games.

View episodeThe Braves are soft and complainers after their playoff exit
This series [we learned] Braves kind of soft, kind of complainers. If you're a Braves fan, you won a World Series a couple years ago, you'd be happy with that. But now you seem pretty soft. This postseason between the complaining about a reporter tweeting out an accurate statement from the clubhouse... gimme a fucking break.
The Diamondbacks are scary and should not be taken lightly
The [Diamondbacks] are scary. The Diamondbacks are scary. They're very scary. I'm not—Zac Gallen is for real. I'm not looking at that team lightly at all.

I'm so jealous of Philly fans because you got a player that is a superstar potential Hall of Famer someday. And he's such a dirtbag—like Phillies fans. He is one of them. When he signed his deal, he was like 13 years, I don't want any opt-outs, I want to die here. Bury me in Philly. He embodies everything that fan base is all about.
The Astros have proven they never needed to cheat to be successful
What they've proven to me—and should be to a lot of people—is that they never had to cheat in the first place. Whether or not they would've won in 2017, that remains to be seen... but as far as getting there seven straight [ALCSs], I don't think that they needed to cheat to do that. They were talented all along.
Winning in the MLB Playoffs is almost entirely about hitting home runs
The formula for Playoff success: good pitching, good defense, hit homers. And the D-backs are hitting homers. It's not about grinding out at-bats and wearing down the pitcher. It's: can you hit homers at a rate that you can out-homer the other team? The Playoffs is all about hitting home runs.
