Message: [QUOTE="HooperScooper, post: 5352655, member: 10"] 7-7 their last 14. I think that was more due to them clinching the division so early (they ended up with a 13 game advantage on the Mets). Obviously home field throughout the playoffs was still in play since they only ended up 1 game ahead of the Phillies and 4 ahead of the Dodgers. I think Milwaukee's biggest problem is they just didn't have established stars. Typically established stars rise to the occasion in the playoffs. Well except the Yankees since they can't seem to get out of their own way 😀. Billy Beane always said he could get the A's to the playoffs with analytics but in the playoffs it didn't work as well since they didn't typically have established stars. [/QUOTE]
