Maybe MLB should just reduce the number of teams and leave only the ones that you deem "worthy" of being in the World Series. Problem solved.
The Dodgers had a mediocre year in a mediocre division and got beat by a better team in the playoffs. The Cubs... well they are just the Cubs.
Tampa had a great year in a tough division and beat Goliath (Boston) in the regular season AND the playoffs.
Philly started off hot and really stalled over the rest of the season. They have had 1 or 2 players that get hot at a time and win the games for them. They STILL won 92 games and beat (get this) the Dodgers in the playoffs.
To say that these 2 teams shouldn't be in the WS is just wrong. They earned their spot there. If you don't care about the games then all I can say is tune out until next year.
Hopefully these 2 young teams will see each other again next year in the WS and then you can have the story that you need so bad... or not.
