2025 Quarter Finals | Playoffs Week 2 Recap + How Do Teams Lose in the Playoffs?

2 weeks down, 2 to go. We recap the Quarter Finals before breaking down the Semi Final matchups. With the defending champion, Coach Mehtab, officially out of the running, there is now just one former champ left in the playoffs.

Nate or Show? In our IRL Baseball segment we explore the reasons fans typically give for their teams losing in the playoffs, and discuss which of those are the most, well, reasonable. ---------------- We’re back for the 2025 season with a whole new format.

2025 Matchup 19 | It All Comes Down to This + What Qualifies as a Bullpen Choke?

It all comes down to this. One more matchup to decide who makes it into the playoffs. We break down the possible playoff scenarios, including the battles for the #2 seed, the #5 seed, and the #7 seed. Right now, only Coach Nick can feel confident in his final standing, and even he technically isn’t guaranteed the #1 seed. After wrapping our heads around the standings madness, we pivot to IRL baseball to chat about our thoughts on bullpens. What type of bullpen failure hurts the most? Do we mind when position players pitch during blowouts?

2025 Matchup 12 | Standings Chaos! When to Accept That Your Team is Mid

Standings chaos! We discuss one of the weirder standings you’ll ever see as we have 4 teams well over .500, and then every other team sitting below .500 but within range of a playoff spot. We try to identify ways to see through the noise and determine what can make an under .500 team a legitimate postseason threat, checking some things CBS offers such as the points behind stat and teams’ week-to-week scoring. We then have a similar discussion for IRL baseball.
