The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Is there a team you're rooting for now that the Jays are out? Or do you feel rooting for another team would be like cheating on your girlfriend when you're away on vacation. I made the poll anonymous so the Bluejays don't get jealous.
Laika Community Moderator Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Guardians for sure. Underdog + Quantrill and Naylor + nerds need a big WS victory
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 The Tribe! Would love to see them knock out the Yankees. Love their rotation of Bieber, McKenzie, Quantrill and their deep bullpen. They don't have a scary lineup on paper, though they can cause havoc by racking up opposing pitchers pitch counts, put the ball in play, and run the bases well. Also, they pay good odds in Vegas!
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Author Posted October 13, 2022 I'm torn between the Padres and Guardians. Padres have yet to win one.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 I'm torn between the Padres and Guardians. Padres have yet to win one. Just remember A. J. Preller is the GM and President of Baseball Operations for the Padres. That should make your decision easier.
Laika Community Moderator Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 I'm torn between the Padres and Guardians. Padres have yet to win one. Padres are hard to like though. Just a motley crew of acquisitions you don't even think of in a Padres uniform when their names are first mentioned.

That should make your decision easier. I like seeing teams win eventually though. They've been around since 1969 and still haven't won. It would have been the Mariners if it wasn't for them knocking the Jays out.

Terminator Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Guardians or Astros for me. The former because they are the plucky underdogs. The latter because I think the whole cheating scandal is way overblown and the enemy of our enemy (the Yankees) is our friend.
Krylian Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 None of them. If my team can't win, they can all burn in hell.
mphenhef Verified Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 I need a "Anybody but the Yankees" option please.
Pendleton Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Padres because they've never won and I appreciate their complete balls to the wall effort to change that.
John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 I dont really have a preference from a team likability standpoint, but Id say Houston just so all the whiney crybabies who still carry on about their cheating a few years ago... their salty tears would be tasty.
Brownie19 Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Braves for me. Just love that team and B2B winners would be cool for a franchise I followed a lot as a kid that just couldn't put it together in the playoffs year after year. Astros to shut up the whiners. I'd love to say Seattle because they've never won, but I don't think that's going to happen. And f*** the Padres.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 I would like to see the Braves come out of the NL. Love their team and gotta show AA some support! He's done a fantastic job with that organization!
Jimcanuck Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Mariners for me. I want to see J-Rod take them to a championship. What a kid

glory Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Guardians shouldn't be rewarded for not spending money/trying to field the cheapest team possible. I like the players on the team, but not the org. I'll go with Seattle.
Terminator Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Anyone choosing Seattle after what just happened should not only be banned from the board but you could even argue that they should be stripped of their citizenship and deported.
wilko Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Want to see the Mariners/Padres WS.
John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Want to see the Mariners/Padres WS. You just want to watch the world burn...
Jays333 Verified Member Posted October 13, 2022 Posted October 13, 2022 Braves so that whoever at Rogers is making decisions keeps feeling the pain of letting AA go, while we have a couple dufuses running the show who dont know that pitching wins in this league not 34 right handed power bats.

leaffie Verified Member Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Mariners. Before you kick me out of the country, it was not the Mariners fault the Jays screwed up. I see a lot of Mariners games and they have loyal fans that have supported them for just as long as Jays fans. The fans deserve it.

I see a lot of Mariners games and they have loyal fans that have supported them for just as long as Jays fans. The fans deserve it. This. I’ve been following the Ms as my “second team” since like 2014 when they had Cano, Felix, Seager, Segura, Cruz, etc. They have a lot of fun young guys and some solid vet players now, they are a fun team. I’m not too upset we lost to them… would have been fuming if we lost the WC to Tampa Bay
Jonn Old-Timey Member Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 None of them. If my team can't win, they can all burn in hell. This. I don’t give a f*** what team wins if its not the Blue Jays. Padres vs Guardians would be cool though.

I'm from the Pacific NW so the Mariners have always been my second team. And yes, all of this, the Jays f***ed up. Can't fault the Mariners for taking advantage (and generally have a likable team). I hated the Royals in 2015 because I hated the Royals period. f*** Ned Yost and a number of the players on that team.
