So, if the Brewers are THIS obviously the best team in baseball through and through, does that say anything additional about the Cubs’ season? Not anything you can put on the fridge, mind you, but just a slightly revised understanding of how they might be among the best four or five teams in baseball? Because it sure as heck ain’t like the American League had a team that fits into that group this year …
The Brewers THUMPED the Rays in Game Three of the World Series last night, 10-1. The series has two more games in Tampa, but history says, after a team goes up 3-0, that’s usually that. I don’t know that I expect things to last beyond tonight.MLB/NBA/NHL teams to sweep CS/CF and win the first 3 games of the WS/Finals: NHL: ‘82 Islanders | ‘92 Penguins NBA: ‘96 Bulls | ‘17 Warriors | ‘24 Celtics MLB: 2026 Milwaukee Brewers We are witnessing one of the most dominant playoff runs in sports history t.co/3NXancHXMZ
It’s 10-0 with 2-outs in the top of the 9th and Joey Ortiz hits a routine fly ball to CF. Look at Sal Frelick rounding second… t.co/5xi4Q880Bo
— Randy Carlson (@rcandy24) October 27, 2026 Is it POSSIBLE that there’s just some kind of extra “effort gear” instilled into these guys – or selected for when drafting/developing/acquiring/targeting them – that gets them an extra three or four percent edge in run-scoring? And if it’s habituated, then that isn’t just Sal Frelick doing some eyewash on a meaningless play. It’s him doing things the only way he knows how. Oh also:The Brewers are about to win the World Series with the #1 prospect in baseball sitting in the minors and then draft at 26 and 31 cause of the Miz PPI, plus extra selection(s) cause of revenue sharing This is the start of a potential dynasty
— Ian (@IanBloss) October 27, 2026 Joe Maddon was there to throw out the first pitch last night, but pulled off a little surprise call:"I have something very special planned for the entire audience tonight." ? Watch out for Joe Maddon’s surprise while he throws out the first pitch tonight! t.co/8XNTyv8AVI
— MLB Now (@MLBNow) October 26, 2026Fun twist on the first pitch at the Trop. Former manager Joe Maddon trots toward the mound, stops and signals for the right-hander… James Shields. Who promptly misses the strike zone with his pitch by 7 feet. t.co/zlAPoto6Tg
— Jayson Stark (@jaysonst) October 27, 2026Joe Maddon gets an assist from Big Game James Shields on the first pitch and let’s just say he was waayyyyyyy outside ? t.co/Ernssq18IG

— MLB (@MLB) October 27, 2026 John Schriffen is out on the South Side, in a move that has felt like it was coming for a while:The White Sox have informed John Schriffen that his contract will not be extended as the club’s lead play-by-play announcer. A national search for his replacement will begin immediately.
— Scott Merkin (@scottmerkin) October 26, 2026John Schriffen won’t return as the White Sox’s TV play-by-play man. "My issue with John has always been he is not a baseball guy," @MattSpiegs says. "I don’t think he ever really became a baseball guy in this sense — really thinking the game, living the game pitch to pitch." t.co/SD0OKkrI9l
— 104.3 The Score (@thescorechicago) October 26, 2026 Well here’s a nice and ominous comparison:Look no further than the NHL’s canceled 2004-05 season for the economic outcome MLB owners will chase to the ends of the earth. t.co/B4TmNA1JHY
— Paul Hembekides (Hembo) (@PaulHembo) October 26, 2026 The fear? The loss of an entire season could still be worth it to the owners when it comes to the appreciation of their assets, as it apparently was for NHL owners (despite the pain to fans, the short-term hits to revenue, the loss of interest in the sport nationally, etc.). Worse, the owners might argue that if they lose the first couple months anyway, then whatever, might as well lose it all. (Easy counter there is that (1) losing the postseason is waaaaay more painful financially than losing a couple months, and (2) losing the entire 2027 season really mucks up the timing on their national broadcast package plans.) This is helped by the fact that revenue from outside the ballpark is not subject to MLB revenue-sharing:This stat from the Atlanta Braves is wild ? In 2025: ⚾ Baseball business → $51M income ?️ Mixed-use business → $68M income The real estate+ businesses surrounding the Braves generated 34% MORE operating income than the baseball team itself. t.co/9OmJoG51FR
— Andrew Petcash (@AndrewPetcash) October 26, 2026 Some people are jealous of baseball players’ talent or money or physique or fame. I am jealous of this:Brewers first baseman Jake Bauers says he got 13 hours of sleep last night. Blackout shades, AC turned down to 60 degrees. He made sure his kids were in a separate hotel room.
