I kinda wish the DBacks weren't playing the Brewers NLDS. Would like to see them fight for a spot in the WS.

Matt Moore is starting game 1 for the Rays, awesome.

I thought Jeff Niemann was starting Game 1?

Either way, the Rays are just going to have to deal with how their rotation is set up right now. If they didn't pitch their best guys that might not have even made it here.

Well, I don't think it's that bad that Moore is starting game 1. He hasn't pitched much in the MLB but he can shut down an offense. Shields game 2, and I assume Price for game 3.

I wish the NL was flip-flopped. I wanted to see D-Back and Brewers do well. Makes that a little hard to do.

Got my countdown to 8:30 going. I'm hoping for big things.

Kind of crazy that all three teams from that 2009 deal benefited and have key players on the team in the playoffs.(Yankees, Tigers, DBacks)

I think I would rather have Ian Kennedy than Grandy but I still love the deal.

Man I really dont want the Phillies to win, but they have such a stacked staff that I cant go against them. How can you go against Halladay and Lee and win?

And then if you lose both Games 1 and 2, its such a confidence deflater because now your done 0-2 and Hamels is great as well. And then you get Halladay or Lee in Game 5. It just doesnt stop.

don't forget that Oswalt can be a stud on any given day lmao. I wouldn't be surprised if they used a 4-man rotation tbh. Also don't forget how much the Yankees can hit off any pitcher (not me saying Yankees will win WS, but I sure hope they do lol). I would love to see a Yankees-Phillies WS Rematch, but with the same results as last time :x

Lol, I love how Leyland is putting Inge in over Betemit and hitting Raburn before Peralta.
Love it.

We also put Penny on the roster over David Pauley.
Doesn't bother me that Penny made it, since he won't start, but why the fuck is Perry in there over Pauley?
