Check out the new Marlins logo...
The '70s called. They want their LSD-induced horrors back.
Check out the new Marlins logo...
This makes me sad.
Not a bad corporate logo though.

Looks like something from a Mario Bros video game cover.
Oh my gods... that is atrocious.

The fuck is that supposed to be. Shouldn't there be something fishlike? Also, with the exception of the A's (for obvious reasons since I don't think anyone called them primarily as the Athletics since Connie Mack died), isn't the Letter supposed to be the location, not the team name?
ETA: I suppose that's supposed to be a Marlin in the corner? Probably shouldn't be orange in that case.
^ I hope those aren't the new team colors.
In this case, it's both, since the team is changing its name to the Miami Marlins.
Is it? Fair enough, I'll withdraw that complaint and just leave the color scheme and how it doesn't seem fish-like enough.
Way to go Yankees...actually underdogs when they started the season to the Bosox, they not only win the AL East title, but no team is even 5 games close to the Yanks win total for home field advantage in the playoffs with 7 games left to play! They have the AL MVP, two solid starters, and the 3 best relievers in the game going into the playoffs!
RAMA
RAMA
And the Yankees take the AL East
Welcome to the world of apathy. With nothing to play for, the Phils have lost five straight.
Jose Bautista was traded to the Yankees? Since when?
And they were never underdogs...ever. You can't be a 210 million dollar team and be underdogs. They are just another good team in the division.
Meanwhile, the Red Sox descent in to hell continues. This month has been a perfect storm of bad luck, injuries, and bad performance from some of their most reliable guys. While its not necessary their faults, I am starting to wonder, that if they complete the collapse (they are 5-16 this month, holy shit), if Francona, or Theo goes? Not necessarily fired, but moving on to another position, or in Tito's case retirement. The poor guy has seem completely and utterly distraught for the past week. Hopefully they can back into to playoffs and regroup from there. There is not a dominant team this year in the playoffs (cept maybe the Phils), so hopefully they can catch a few breaks.
Well, for what it's worth I hope they pull it together 
Yankees against Rays in the post season is "meh". Yankees vs Red Sox for the chance to make it into the World Series has been and always will be epic

espn in particular was big on giving the Division and the World Series to the Red Sox You can even see that mindset in this thread if you turn back the pages a bit.

They certainly weren't the medias favorites to win the Division at the beginning of the season...or even to make it into the post season, as this pre-season article shows
