Yeah, I know :-(. I just have that sinking feeling that the biggest keys to us being good this year and advancing are really getting worn down(Taylor and Bellinger) from their first full seasons in MLB. It is going to take Granderson continuing his run of the last couple of weeks and probably another notch on top of that. Plus, Seager needs to finally take charge in a post season run where he is the catalyst of the offense. Turner and him catching fire can carry a team, but Granderson adding some length of a threat to that lineup is going to be the next important piece.
As for the the rest of my pics:
- If we don't win, I sure hope it is the Indians who do. That is like the one team (along with the Twins, I guess) where if they won, the fans would not be unbearable fucktards.
- The Cubs look like a team that has been here before and they are doing what good teams do, turning it on at the right time.
- I think the Rockies beat the D'Backs in the one off as all the talk has suddenly shifted to the Backs being the best team in the NL, though they too have stumbled somewhat lately against shitty competition. I feel the pressure will get to them. Lamb will chase bad pitches and JD Martinez is going to be a little too amped. I think Charlie Blackmon hit a leadoff HR, Jon Gray puts himself on the map of being one of the few true aces in MLB and the D'backs never recover.

 

I'll ride with #2
He's the shit.

 

So apparently he was a dick and didn't believe the rules applied to him. Fucked around with both I'ntl bonuses as well as amateur draft stuff as well. Biggest thing from the article is if it is true that he did worse than what the Red Sox did when it came to pooling funds, star SS prospect Kevin Maitan could be on the market. Keep an eye on that as he is called the best Venezuelan prospect since Miggy.

 

I'll take the Venezuelan catcher Cartaya and this Venezuelan SS for 500, Alex

 

Blasphemy (with fingers tightly crossed)

Dunno, is the Sicilian think?

 

All the national guys are picking the Nationals, Dbacks and Cubs over us.

 

I think the Dodgers are the best team in the NL I just think Arizona is a shit matchup I'd rather play the Cubs or the Nationals
