I hate it, Hate it, HATE IT. The Twins are in the postseason hunt but it doesn't make me believe they're a good team. I certainly don't have the same level of excitement I had in 2006. Adding the first set of wild cards ruined pennant races for the most part (with a few exceptions). Adding the second makes it even worse. I don't care that the Royals and Giants made the World Series last year as play in teams. You could put the Phillies in the playoffs and they would win a series occasionally. The thing I used to like about baseball was that it was special to make the postseason. Now it is approaching every other sport where all you need to do is be slightly above .500. I don't believe the second wild card was added because Selig saw how exciting the Game 163s were. They were added as a money grab and an attempt to make sure Boston and New York were in the playoffs every year, which has failed. I realize they'll never drop the number of teams that reach the postseason but it doesn't mean I have to like it.
