Welcome to Episode 108 of Tablesetters, a live special edition devoted to the theater of October baseball. The Wild Card round delivered everything that makes this game irresistible — drama, heartbreak, and the sudden swing of fortune that only a short series can bring. The Yankees shut out the Red Sox to punch their ticket. The Dodgers swept past the Reds to set up a heavyweight showdown. The Cubs outlasted the Padres in a tense decider at Wrigley, while the Tigers endured a familiar divisional foe in Cleveland to keep their dream alive. With the chaos of the Wild Card behind us, the stage is now set for the Division Series — where the stakes climb higher and every mistake, every moment of brilliance, lingers longer. The Yankees and Blue Jays meet in their first-ever postseason clash, an AL East rivalry sharpened by Toronto's defensive mastery and New York's reliance on overwhelming power. In Seattle, the Mariners' long-awaited division crown is tested by a Tigers club leaning on Tarik Skubal's ace-level dominance. The Phillies and Dodgers bring star power on a scale rarely seen in a Division Series — Harper, Ohtani, Schwarber, Freeman, Yamamoto, and more — a matchup destined to echo beyond October. And then there's Brewers–Cubs, a postseason rivalry finally realized, where speed, bullpen arms, and one timely swing could tilt the balance of history. This weekend promises tension, legacy, and the defining moments of the postseason's middle act. We'll walk through the fallout of the Wild Card round, preview every Division Series matchup, spotlight the players poised to shape the story, and consider what each battle means on the long road to the pennant. Join us live on Twitter and YouTube, and catch the full episode on all audio platforms after the fact. And don't forget to follow along on Instagram and X @TablesettersPod for exclusive postseason coverage.

It wasn't easy, it wasn't without drama, and it wasn't without a whole bunch of things going unexpectedly right—and wrong—over the course of the entire season, but your 2025 Toronto Blue Jays are winners of 94 games, the AL East crown, and the right to wait for the Yankees and Red Sox to duke it out in deciding who will be their ALDS opponent.What a world! What a ride! What a team! And, before the story of these Jays gets rewritten by whatever happens next, we wanted to take a few moments to appreciate what an accomplishment it's been to even get this far.FOR AN AD-FREE VERSION OF THIS EPISODE AND WEEKLY BONUS SHOWS, SUPPORT US AT patreon.com/BJHH Hosted on Acast.
