    Nice clear, Omar.

    Two rebuttals: 1. Both Mexico and Costa Rica can improve their FIFA ranking to get into a better selection pot in the WC draw, which is better than nothing. 2. If the USMNT can't at least draw T&T, they deserve nothing.

    Every team that has tried to get cute with their rotation in the playoffs so far has suffered as a result. The Indians didn't discover a new market inefficiency last year, they just rode an incredible string of fortunate pitching until they ran out of gas midway through the World Series. So far this year: - The Yankees went with Severino with the plan to go bullpen game at the first sign of trouble, and Severino got a single out. - The Astros went with Verlander in relief with runners on up 2-1 in the series and Verlander promptly relinquished the lead. - The Red Sox went with Sale in relief and couldn't make it work. - The Indians decided to hole Kluber to Game 2 and pitch Bauer on short rest in Game 4, and got no success from either plan. - The Diamondbacks decided to piggy back starters for the WC game and Game 1, and they're basically out of pitching midway through game 3 and are about to get swept. The Dodgers, Cubs and Nationals have basically gone business as usual with the 1-4 starters, and they're both the most well rested staffs, and have pitched the best.

    U-17's playing them as we speak. 0-0 in the 70th. At least they're getting better at beating Ghana.

    Well, at least the USMNT won't play Ghana yet again in the 2018 World Cup. Egypt advances over Ghana in CAF qualifying, making the World Cup for the first time since 1990.

    Nice 3-0 victory to kick off the U17 World Cup for the USMNT.

    "I mean...I didn't even know they had a Kyle Hendricks."

    Posit Kyle Hendricks is the most dominant postseason starting pitcher of this era.

    That was way easier than last year's NLDS game 1.

    This is a weird development. I hear Randall Simon is Dusty's top candidate to replace him. Lenny Harris, dude is a professional hitter.

    Good offensive half, they should have 6+ at this point.

    Out with a loss, in with a win, with a draw they need to hope for 3 of 4 outcomes of Paraguay L/T, Peru L, Chile L, and Colombia L by 2+

    The wild card was added to make sure a great team didn't miss out on the postseason just for being in the wrong division. The wild card game was added to make sure winning the division still meant something. It's just the right amount of unfair.

    5-6, 80, 1 TD, Bears run ball 55 times.

    I have my doubts that MLB is just going to allow a case study in salary suppression by just letting him go through FA. EDIT: As Grant Brisbee illustrated: [tweet] [/tweet]

    I'll do it.

    So they're almost as responsive as the boards then.

    The Tigers' Andrew Romine played all 9 positions today: http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/20874283/andrew-romine-detroit-tigers-play-all-9-positions-vs-minnesota-twins?sf118043913=1

    Just call it the Reds Differential.
