In the DL we have one great division and 2 crappy ones.
ALE
Yep, welcome to hell. So far Pitt & Maine have been battling out the top spot with Pawtucket sniffing in every so often. Bottom line, if Pawtucket can actually win a game against Maine I like they're chances. Keep hoping this ends up being a water finds its level thing. This isn't a slight against Pitt at all in the end they can win this just as easily, just making a point going 0-6 against a divisional foe is going to impact the standings. For now I'll say Pitt, followed by Maine followed by Pawtucket with all 3 teams making the playoffs. Oh, forgot to mention Hartford plays in the Ale also.
LAGER
LA off to a fast start. Don't think this pace will continue, but a old man's pace is enough to win this. Its the same formula: 2 great pitchers, a great closer and legendary SS (terrible trade Funclown) and then some players. New York will place respectable enough to finish 2nd, but nothing thrilling to report. Nice battle for 3rd I think in the end New Orleans gets the nod since Toronto has Zack Reeves followed by a horror show pitching staff. Note to Lager: To beat LA you need to pitch better then LA!!!!!
PILSNER
My surprise pick coming. Indy has enough veteran cast where I do believe some young guns start playing better in September and overtakes a decent, but slightly overrated Dallas team. I just see to many holes in they're lineup. Denver finally wakes up and makes a charge, but won't be good enough to get past 3rd. Another team better then they're record shows, but still lacking that scary ACE pitcher to end those nasty losing streaks. Syracuse is better for sure, but right now it really needs a play maker. That player who can carry his team on its back.
Wildcard
It seems the Ale might again represent 3 and I really don't know in which order. Dallas, Indy or New York could sneak in just because the Ale brothers could cancel each other out allowing one to eek in, but it won't be cuz they are more talented.
