Now that this has settled a bit, this sets up the NL East pretty fun all of a sudden. It's been a pretty boring division the last few years. This brings a whole new level of rivalry to Nats-Phillies, the Braves are good, and we're looking pretty good. A 3 horse race to the finish could make for some fun regular seasons the next couple years.
And playoff misses. Wtf is fun about that? If I'm going to watch 130 games on TV, I want to know I'm gonna have a shot to watch them have a chance to advance in the playoffs.
I have a friend that has a favorite team and he just always wants to see good games. Screw that
