So Pitt vs SF and KC vs OAK. Clearly no starting pitchers have been announced...but Im sure we can try to narrow it down to who it can be. I almost for sure want to go against OAK just to conclude this meltdown since they traded Cespedes. Im not sure about the other game, two Jekyl and Hyde teams IMO.

Fading Oak no matter what. Who are the pitchers for this game?Comment -
Oak: Lester on regular rest + 1 Day
KC: Shields regular rest I believe
just looking at who pitched, I think KC set it up so shields would pitch this game.Comment -
i like pirates in the other game. Losing pagan pretty much eliminates the giants chances of doing anything and they know it. I dont think theyll have as much fire Wednesday because they know they cant beat the good teams without paganComment -
Bumgarner vs Volquez in the NL
Volquez has been pitching VERY well lately and the Pirates are very tough at home... gotta see what the line is thoughComment -
Please tell me you don't live in the Bay Area because if you do you know nothing about baseball or the lineup lol. If you don't live In the Bay Area you no nothing about the rookies we called up or the bullpen. But you should already no MadBum is only 25 and has 2 World Series championships .Comment -
I dont live in the Bay Area but you should know over the last three years what this team has done with pagan and what they have done without him. Its a huge difference. Gregor Blanco isnt bad but he wont come up with the clutch leadoff hits that pagan does. Panik is good but hes a rookie and the playoffs are a whole other battle. And Belt is a mess since his concussion. Can they beat Pitt yes but thats as far as they go this year. But I think you are a blind faith fan the way that you responded so the only way to prove it is for you to watch your team get outclassed. And I have nothing against the Giants either I would much rather see them come out the NL then the other 4 teams but its just not happening this year. I honestly leaned Pitt because I think the giants know they need pagan so I didnt think they would come out with the fire needed. Also MadBum hasnt been as consistent and as shut down as he has been in the pastComment -
as a pittsburgh fan, i feel a lot better about this game with sf being without pagan, as for lines, i only saw the 2 series pricesComment -
Again while your opinion is right about pagan. Blanco has been playing huge filling in for him. Again if you don't see every single ge on a daily bases you have no idea. All you are doing is reading some stats, seeing what espn posts and looking at MLB.com anyone can do that . And this is the best year Bumgarner has ever pitched In his career.... I have no idea how you can say he hasn't been consistent he's a machine on the mound . Panik is clutch as hell. He filled the void almost instantly and made his presence known. You still haven't mentioned other key contributors. The only player anyone in SF gives a shit about is Pablo . If he doesn't show up were
Screwed and that is what I will admit. Obviously I want them to win I have pkayoff tickets for the next series . And we want to play Washington more than LA or St. Louis. The Nationals are who we originally wanted to end up facing. The Pirates will beat the Nationals also in the NLDS . As far as getting outclassed i easily back a team full of championsComment -
Mann, this is pretty tough. I can't get a read on either game. I do lean OAK, believe it or notComment -
