I agree with this. Baseball players arent use to sitting for a week. Its not Detorit needed to rest the pen or starters. BP aint the same thing as live pitching. Rogers has pitched 2 outstanding games in the playoffs. He's a good pitcher but pitching 3 in a row is a tough task. I havent looked but im going to guess the Tigers have been really good with RISP. I dont have facts supporting this, its just what i seem to see. Mets have a great lineup, if Detoit doesnt pitch well they will get ransacked. Detroit starters have been pitching out of their minds, expect a regression. Detroit has an advantage with rogers and roberston being lefties against the mets lefty lineup. Carpenter can win 2 games for the Cardinals alone. After posting this originally I read an article that said historically, teams with as much as the Tigers got win the World Series at a very high % Yeah and then i was reminded of the White Sox 6 days rest last year :lol: But the White Sox won because of their pitching last year and not hitting. I dont think the Tigers have the same rotation as the Sox last year, especially Contreras. Also i was thinking if the Tigers win this will be another high AVG low OBP team to win the WS. Anaheim/White Sox and maybe the Tigers.
