Yes. I have said since the day I signed up on this forum that baseball playoffs are much different than other sports..... Any team has a chance. Teams go cold quite a bit in the playoffs. Granted Houston beat the Yankees, their offense hasn't exactly been explosive and now it's catching up to them against the Nats who are underdogs in this series. Yankees were the Twins kryptonite all year, hence why I was hoping Oakland would advance (I still hold true to my word that Oakland would have given the Yankees a very good series) All that matters in baseball is making the playoffs and you have a chance to beat anyone. (hence Cardinals beating the Braves) Nats beating the Dodgers.
In the NFL if a Wild Card team like the Texans, Colts, Bills take out a top seed like the Pats it's a MASSIVE upset that nobody saw coming (07 Giants run) Baseball in my opinion isn't the same. Yes it's a massive upset but once the playoffs hit I kind of expect anyone to compete.
