Dodgers deal in extremes.They are totally unlike the other team in town(which lately hasn't swept a good team,or been swept by a good team.)I think that is simply due to the Halos having better management skills.I think Grady is pretty good at figuring out(along with the G.M.)who the cancer is on a team,and eventually cutting it out(can't do that with J.D. POOH'S 10 MIL..thanks DEPODESTA, ya btch.)Grady doesn't know how to get the team to stop sliding though.My guess is we feast on you for 3,or you feast on us for 3.Won't be surprised either way.

Atleast(by coming out to the West Coast) the Cincy club will get out of the nightly sauna.Out here it is hot during the day,but luckily the night is the right time(cools off.)BTW...No easy home runs at Dodger Stadium at night.You have to earn it.Ain't like the Great American Small Park.

Dodgers over Reds in a sweep.
Astros win the wildcard.

I thought you knew something about Baseball, you might want to check the Astros, they're behind the Brewers...

I know where they are. You may need to know that the season doesnt end tomorrow, there are still about 35 games left, plenty of time for the Astros to catch fire and walk into this thing.

That the Reds are this close to making the playoffs proves how far inferior a league the NL is.

They wouldn't have been swept at home against The Yankees, that was one of the most sackless things I have seen in sports in a long time...

The Reds are on the rebound, they have a new owner that will spend money and what many are calling the GM of the Year, they are going to be really good...

No matter how good Boston is, how many World Series have they won in the last 20 years?

One, the same amount as the Reds have, so it's not like Boston is winning WS after WS...

35 games to go.They have won 60 games.Took 89 last year to get the Wild Card.Are you thinking that they go 29-6???Maybe you think 87 will be enough??? 27-8???

It's not out of the realm of possibility that the NL Wild Card team could have a losing record...But make no mistake, Houston got the fork by going 1 of 3 against the Reds, they needed to win at least 2, to have a chance...
