Happy MLB playoffs Opening Day! All totals have been reset to zero, and this week’s FanPulse question is about the Wild Card:
Personally I’m split. I love the high-stakes drama of the play-in game, but I’m also often most interested in the teams who are in the Wild Card, who tend to be “outsiders,” and those are the teams I’d like to see more of in the playoffs. I also wonder if playing for a Wild Card spot would be more attractive to teams deciding between competing and rebuilding if it was a three or five-game series rather than just one game.
