Good call. Both teams are scary but the lefty situation (pitching and hitting) definitely favors us. Also how is San Diego 29th in the league in HRs? I know Petco is a big pitchers park but they seem like a team that should have more dongs.
Seems like barring collapse we’ll either be WC1 or WC2 and playing the Dodgers or Padres, small chance of Mets. Which team would you rather see in a short series?
With the Reds loss last night, the Cubs playoff odds are up to 99.2%. There are 7 teams with playoff odds above 99% already.
Vaunted Brewers - 100.0%
Tigers - 99.9%
Blue Jays - 99.7%
Phillies - 99.7%
Dodgers - 99.7%
Cubs - 99.2%
Padres - 99.1%
also im not one of those "the manager should go out and scream at the umpire" people in general but Craig should have at least had some words with the ump after Seiya's BS checked swing situation. I have never seen an appeal to 1st with the 1st base ump saying no swing with the home plate ump overriding him. That's at least worth a heated conversation imo.
