    I missed the Detroit game and it looks like a good thing, I'll pick it up for game 2 though. On the M's, and SF but skipping Baltimore.

      I don't know about M's tonight as Stros hit lefties better.
      And M's haven't been hitting much.
      Steep price for that one.
      I think O's are best play for 1st games of series

        O's have been struggling lately, they were winning all their games in double digits last week. WTF happened? And the tigers getting swept by The Indians is crazy. it's hard enough following team stats and then you got pitcher match-ups to follow too like shuld pitcher match-ups be more the focus than the overall team play?

                  How about the Dodgers @ home against the Reds?

                  You got Ryu, Grienke, Kershaw lined up.

                      The Brewers just found a new way to lose a game. Unbelievable.

                        What a night. MIL and STL blew the game in extra innings. And the GIANTS just made the Cubs look like a HoF team.

                        Let's get it done tonight! BOL

                          I'm only on 2 series to start the week, Giants and LAD, Dodgers won still on the chase with the Giants.

                              Wow. This is a good chase guys. Only one I've done so far is Brewers. Did Series price for Cards...thinking this chase may have been a better option but have gone 3 for 3 in series this year.

                                I see another tricky weekend coming up. Out of the top 7 in the power rankings you've got the A's playing the Angels, Cards playing the Giants and the Tigers and Braves on the road. Brewers vs Cubs is a no-brainer but past that I'm going to have to do some digging, post up your plays when you have them.

                                  From the power rankings I use, two 4-game series starting Thursday: LaD(8) over Pitt(25) and Tor(4) over KC(20). Like the pitching matchups in both of those for a chase.

                                    whtsox...what power-rankings do you use (i'm sure u've vetted many in your day...curious what you've settled down with)...

                                    any chance you continue to post these little "heads ups" (just like you did...no need for the follow-up hand-holding/record-keeping stuff...just a "word to the wise" about mismatched series you see on the horizon)...would fit the spirit of this thread perfectly, i think

                                      ^^ That's the kind of further digging I'm talking about. Great follow up guys, thanks for the input.

                                                  I will play Jays until they lose.
                                                  Dodgers chase...Cards too.
                                                  I like their chances to win the first 2 games.
                                                  Garcia tonight has been great vs Giants and Vogelsong has gotten rocked by Cards...still think it's a close game, but Cards win 75% of their games following a loss.

                                                          Thank you Jose Reyes. What a way to lose a game. Disgusting.

                                                            It is a weird week with a bunch of 2 game series. I stay away from those entirely. The only series i'm really sold on to start the week is

                                                              4-game series (2 home 2 road) Brewers over Twins. Considering Dodgers over Whitesox as Chris Sale wont pitch in that series, also A's on the road at Yankees but don't like having Tanaka going the final game. (edit: only chasing Brewers)
                                                              Good luck, gents!
