Almost Cooperstown
We're a father & son who love to talk and argue about baseball! Baseball is the professional sport that has the longest history so there is a lot to talk about. We launched Almost Cooperstown noting that baseball contains a long history of players that, for whatever reasons, have been shunned by the electors of the Hall of Fame. Consequently here are many 'Almost' players still waiting their turn for induction. With less than 1.5% of the now more than 23,000 players in the HOF, we feel there should be more players included. In these podcasts we also discuss current seasons & trends. Please send any messages to almostcooperstown@gmail.com.

TWIB 10.1.23 - MLB Playoffs preview - Ep. 435
And suddenly the 2023 season is all over. Pitch clocks, larger bases, limits to shifting the infield all proved to be welcome and significant changes in MLB. The 2023 Braves have reason to claim they are the greatest hitting team of all time. The Marlins & D'Backs are back in the playoffs and somehow the Astros managed to win the AL West after all.
The Wild Card Series being Tuesday and will end no later than Thursday with the NL and AL Division Series both starting on Saturday. This might he the most exciting week of the baseball year!
We recap the week that was, preview what's to come, and predict who we think will move on in the playoffs.
