Default Baseball Playoffs

Tonight, the Rays are starting rookie, Matt Moore. It will be his second major league start of his career. Texas counters with CJ Wilson who is 5-0 with a 1.94 ERA vs Rays.

The Rays 4 man rotation for the series will be 50% rookies.

Texas is going to crush the Rays. Congrats, in advance, to the Rangers.

Matt Moore is going to be a great pitcher. Do you guys understand now why I wanted the Tigers to finish with the two seed?

I meant to post the article last night, but there's a story on ESPN about the biggest defensive liabilities in the postseason. The worst fielder in this year's postseason shouldn't be a surprise to anybody who's followed defensive metrics over the last, well, 15 years:

Derek Jeter

Give me NYY, Texas, Philly and Milwaukee

If Detroit wins game 1 I'd probably switch picks

Those are on their way up by the second. (well, the ERA is if nothing else)

Odd matchup the Rangers/Rays...the visiting team won every post season game between the two last year and looks like the trend will continue in game 1.

Madden has grown lots of hair too. I didn't see much of the Rays in the regular season.
