Except for this board, I see nothing about this team, yet they have 93 wins and a strong team all around.

If they get by St Louis, I think they could be a tough out for the #1 seed, whether it is Washington or Cincinnati.

And in other news, no American League team has the tools to win the title.

Yea, we seem to be peaking at the right time. Have won 7 of 8. Have the best pitcher in baseball in medlen right now. I like our chances.

I'm well aware of that. They aren't the same team then that they are now though. Their pitching is much more consistent it seems.

We will win the playoff and play the Nats and probably end up losing in 6 games.

We have the hottest team in baseball right now with the best pitcher, I feel really good about our chances to win it all.

But it's really the only league the media wants to discuss because there's still playoff maneuvering going on. I get that it's more exciting, but it's lazy to not be able to find something to discuss about NL teams.


The Braves/Cardinals game is a win/win for me cause either way, a team I hate is going home.

Seriously. The way he's pitched all season long, I can't see the Braves losing the WC game. Obviously, he could pitch poorly or still pitch well and the Braves still lose, but I like our chances against anyone with him on the hill

Giants won't even win 2 games in the LDS so that's a moot post.

You seem pretty confident, how about a ban bet?
