OT: Wildcard roster loophole

Anyone else think that the Wildcard Roster should carry over to the Division Series, just to close the the loophole.

I don't have a problem with this loophole at all.... though it seems useless, so even if it was banned, I wouldn't care. In or Out, no difference.

I like it as in, its a 1 game take it all. Let the teams throw everything they have out there...... though, does anyone ever do that?
Its 1 game. they are not gonna use 10 relievers. Plsu they have 4 other starters on the bench you might as well use if your that desperate for pitching help at that stage.

Useless dicussion.

Flip a Coin and resolve the issue. ..... Heads or Tails? :evil:

Meh if a team actually wants to micromanage to the point they use 10 relievers in a single game, so be it, I don't see how it's that beneficial anyway. Would you really want to use relievers from the bottom of the barrel anyway?

Game goes to extra innings like the Royals/A's slobberknocker last year, micromanagement becomes a necessity.

Unless of course, you have the winneryness of the goddamn Royals.
