I have zero confidence in the Phillies beating the Mets in the NLDS

I wanted nothing more than to play any team but the Mets going into yesterday and like the way everything has gone in the past two days, it's like I have zero confidence in that series.

Max's lack of confidence was justified as the Mets defeated the Phillies in the NLDS 3-1.

The New York Mets might be a team of destiny

The New York Mets might be a team of destiny. They have the omg that they're running around the rallying cry they have... the Mets might be a team of destiny.

The Mets made a deep postseason run to the NLCS, defying expectations after a poor start to the season, confirming the 'destiny' narrative for most of October.

Small ball wins in the baseball postseason

Small ball. Mike Socialism. Yeah, bring it back. It's great. Pete Rose would be disgusted by the Baltimore Orioles. Yeah. Swing down at the ball line drives ground balls. Those can be hits. Pop flies can't.

Whether small ball specifically wins more than power in the modern era is subjective and statistically debated, but it's a staple of PFT's sports philosophy.

Daryl Morey is a good talent evaluator but a bad team builder

Daryl Morey has done a lot of good things for the future of the 76ers... He is a very good drafter... He's very good at evaluating talent. He's not very good at putting a team together, which is probably pretty important for a GM.

This is a subjective assessment of a GM's career tenure.

The Bucks would be idiotic not to trade Giannis Antetokounmpo now

You gotta turn the page and this is the best way to do it. 'Cause you can get real, you get real [picks] and like jumpstart your next chapter. You gotta trade him. You have to, it would be idiotic not to trade him at this point.

Subjective team-building philosophy.
