As part of the 16-team expanded playoff proposal, the No. 1, 2, 3 seeds in each league— the Division winners— would pick their opponents among the other 5 teams, with a selection show.

Wouldn’t consider Rivera to be a flamethrower by any means. [Reply]
Probably as strong a lineup as they can put out there (Carlson not being there being the notable exception). And if Goldschmidt, Carpenter and Fowler play to some level of their career averages, it's actually a pretty good one.
If they play like they played last year (the far more likely scenario), it's gonna be average on its good days and a complete skid-mark on occasion. [Reply]
