2018 Playoffs - Who ya got?

I agree, but I like it. I like some smack talk come playoff time. Also, seeing some rivalries develop within the new divisions would be fun. Not that things should get nasty, but a little jab here and there makes things interesting.

You were going to replace Jake in my heart but forget it now.

That is such a Carlos thing to say.

Losing Trucker hurts us big time. Anytime you lose the batting champ its a blow. Peller will be back game 3 (if there is a game 3), and limping into the playoffs losing 5 of 6 doesn't bode well. Hopefully our starting pitching can keep us in games and we can score enough to win. But its going to be a tight series.

Ill also take Maine, strictly because of home field, Philly because I think its already an amazing accomplishment that Seattle made it this far (but I'd never count out Pat!), and Washington because, no offense to Windy City, but Wash is just a better team.

Good Luck everyone!!

Maine in 4. I think the loss of "Stinger" late in games, his leadership and the layoff all hurt Dallas more than people think. I also think Maine's lineup matches up well against the Snappers.

Pawtucket in 5. Both teams have significant players on the disabled list. I think Surmeir is a bigger loss than Nygaard.

Philadelphia in 5. Second upset pick. We got a close look at the Freedom this week. I think they can pull off the upset but it won't be easy.

Washington in 5. They got very lucky in the opening round but with their outfield finally figured out, I think they might go on a big run.

I think Tom Wright missing Game 1 and Game 2 is big. The Guides have a real chance to be up 2-0 heading to Maine for three games. However, the Patriots RH heavy lineup fits well in that park so I think they send it back to Pawtucket. The dream season in Maine ends here. Pawtucket in 6.

The Bats have a real good chance here to steal this early. Batavia finished their series just yesterday and won't have Reeves ready until the series goes back to Washington. The Bats however, are fully rested with Lippert ready in Game 1. I could see DC wrapping this up in five, but if it goes back to Batavia, I think the Muckdogs take it. Batavia in 7.

I'm thinking Batavia in seven.
