Has their been a division rival that you get tired of watching your team face each season?

That's the feeling I get when I'm watching the Rangers and Mariners. Almost every season the Rangers dominated the Mariners in many of their meetings that I just don't find a lot of joy watching these games knowing that the Rangers are likely gonna win at least 4 of the 6 meetings each year.

This years meetings been a mismatch especially with the Rangers offense and pitching stacked up while the Mariners have been the polar opposite. At the beginning of the season, it seemed like the matchups were stacked pretty evenly but at this point, it's just meaningless for me to watch these series.

Update:

Edit: Btw, good luck in tomorrow's matchup Caity. Should be fun.

    White Sox and Twins.

    The Twins are just so damn good it's hard to even bother watching unless John Danks is pitching. They just have our number. Each and every season they knock us out of the race in the last month of the season

    As a Yankee fan I find that when they have series against the Blue Jays they are usually quite boring. I mean, the Yankees almost always beat them, and the fact that the Jays are never in contention and thus not a real threat to the Yankees' playoff hopes makes me uninterested when both teams play.

  • I don't know if it's so much tired of the Cardinals, just that they beat us too much. They beat us in our only WS in 1982, and they beat the Brewers consistently pretty much every other season.

    Since the Brewers have been in the NL Central (1998) they have only been ahead of the Cardinals 2ce in final standings. Not to mention they have won the NL Central 7 times since then as well.

  • Im going to say the Orioles.

    We beat them almost everytime we play them, I mean the games are so boring to watch unless it's a close game. They have just been so horrible this season so I get bored easily when we watch them. I would say the Bluejays, but they are a decent team to play and fun to watch,

    I think we face the Rangers too much. Then it turns out we only face each other x amount of times and it blows my mind because it seems we face each other almost every month!

    I'm sick of seeing the Yankees play the Rays. Tampa Bay is a great team that kills you with their speed, and they can be really annoying with their great fundamentals. And we still have 7 games against them...

    EDIT: oh yeah, I forgot about the Blue Jays. It seems like we can never beat them. They always hit and pitch dominantly against us.

    Used to be the Angels. They would win the season series quite often, and the first 2 ALDS series, but now the Yankees figured out the Angels.

    St. Louis vs. Houston

    Its SO annoying how the 'Stros are the bottom of the NL Central, but we just can't seem to beat them.

    nationals, for some reason the braves can't figure them out every year, they have winning records against every other team in the NL, but the nationals are their bug team

    The Arizona DiamondBacks. For the past couple of years they have been at the bottom of the NL West Standings, and everytime the Padres play them, we can't seem to beat them.
