MLB Post-Season. What a field we have and what a Wild Card round. It is a very big shame that it’s only three game series, but MLB in some regards is still better than NFL just because they haven’t over done the playoffs too much. While I miss that first Friday of 4 games for the AL & NL Divisional Series, we get it now on Tuesday & Wednesday, which might actually offset that empty Friday slate this week. Here are my series predictions that you can roast me on a couple weeks from now Wild Card Winners Boston, Detroit, Cincinnati :eyes emoji:, San Diego Divisional Round Winners Detroit, Toronto, Philadelphia, Milwaukee LCS Winners Toronto, Philadelphia World Series Champion Phillies – They have been my pick since February, I am not changing it now. WEATHER All clear TARIK SKUBAL (DK: $10,000 / FD: $10,300) 8 strikeouts will happen here. Skubal has that it factor for dominating right now. He had a few hiccups late in the season but after seeing Cleveland on September 23rd, one week ago, Skubal returns & is just too damn good not to be used. Much more comfortable here than Crochet & Fried — both I don’t mind, but doubt they have the strikeouts Skubal will. HUNTER GREENE (DK: $8200, FD: $9200) While Tito Francona has improve the Reds bullpen, there’s no way he pulls the plug on Greene early & I’m trusting my upset call here on the Reds shocking the world with a series win vs the Dodgers and that only happens if they win Game 1. Also expect to pitch well… Blake Snell & Gavin Williams, but both will hit a bad inning mid-4th/5th innings somewhere in there and thus the ceiling game isn’t likely PADRES vs CUBS … Weather is not going to be a huge factor here, but it won’t be miserable weather in Wrigley either. Cubs pen is the one I trust the least in the Wild Card round.
