Wow Nashie
2 in a row with the Brew Crew
Seems like you are seeing the NL very clear
Please continue with your thoughts and analysis
Points to you
Thanks. Brewers have made all the right moves all year.
They stole a potential MVP in Yellich from Miami.
Got Moose and Cain from my beloved Royals, Cain is so clutch and smooth, and destroys lefties.
Agulliar is has beastly power. Old man Braun still getting ti done.
Sound bullpen, starting pitching (like Oakland in the American League) is the question mark.
Pitching usually wins, that's why I love Cleveland, (power, defense and starting pitching)
But you have a sound bullpen, you can get creative.

Nice work Nash, the Under hit too.
I needed that one. Now I need Seattle to win and hopefully keep it Under, maybe get out of this day alive.
Nice work with this one, you really undressed this game.

Love my Royals, they piss you off for years, then BOOM !
2015 was the greatest baseball season of my life.
There were dozens of memories I'll take to my grave.
Hosmer's mad dash home from third.
Game 4 against the Astros is my all time favorite.
KC down 6-2 in the 8th, elimination game if they lose, in game odds have Astoro's at 98 percent.
KC gets five consecutive hits, then comes the Correa error, my favorite, ball comes up on him.
That's all she wrote
And let's not forget that 2 hit masterpiece from Johnny Cueto.
I'm crying as I write this.
Tears of joy.
Mr. Glass planned that team starting 2009.
You forgot maybe the biggest play of all. Alex Gordon homerun of Familia in the bottom of the 9th in Game 1. They lose game 1 at home probably a completely different series.

That's another team to fear.
Rox mash the ball at Coors, this team is now built to win on the road as well.
44-37 record (tied for third best in the majors)
The pitching staff no longer a laughing stock.
Look at what starters Marquez and Freeland have done so far this season.
Especially Freeland at Coors, the numbers are staggering.
I'm not going into Mr. Database but look at what Freeland has done at Coors this year has to be an all time best.
At home he's 9 and 2, ERA of 2.36 and a WH/IP ratio of 1.12. Are you freaking kidding me. No pitcher has had a better season at Coors!!!
Both pitchers are dependable, made every start, and for the most part keeps the ball in the park, especially Freeland.
And I'm comfortable with their #3 starter either Anderson or Gray.
Bullpen is their weakest link however Wade Davis has had a monster September and is finally living up to his elite closer status.
Ottavino and Oberg have been solid, everybody else in that 'pen has been horse shit. If I was Buddy Black (who knows a thing or two about pitching) I would not even consider using the rest of that bullpen staff.
Rockies lineup is lethal, you all know the names, half that line up has over 20 homers, and they play good defense led by gold glover Arenado.
Bud Black is a quality manager too.
Tonight the Rockies are -172 (too pricey) and I'm not fading Arrieta)
Jake and the Phils might be the play tonight, but passing you just can't fade Colorado right now.
You a gambling man?
You can get Rockies to win the National League pennant at +615. Mighty tempting.
