(7) The Wild Card Game: Genius Innovation or the Root of All Evil?

The New York Yankees might win 100 games in 2018, but are likely to get into the playoffs only if they win a sudden death Wild Card Game. The Cleveland Indians almost certainly will win fewer than 100 games, and they’re virtually a lock for a playoff spot. Is this as unfair as it sounds? Join Baseball Rabbi Pesach Wolicki and Scott Kahn for a discussion about the MLB playoff system – both in 2018 and throughout history – in order to answer the pressing question, once and for all, of whether Yankee fans have a serious argument, or are just a bunch of whiners. Also – why Cleveland, even with a terrific run differential, isn’t nearly as good as they seem.
