Yall gotta help me out. Why is Robbie Grossman batting in the 3-hole? Maybe...maybe if he's facing a lefty, but Glasnow is a RHP.

Since the WC is all ESPN/ABC they can arrange it how they want. I believe once you get to the DS, the games will be split Turner / Fox / Turner / Fox or reverse so there should be am early and late game for each league.

Grossman in the 3 spot is a real head-scratcher. Does he have good numbers against Glasnow?

I'm ok with them not. That pitching staff is tough.

Rays stacked up their lefty killer lineup as best they could.

wRC+ vs LHP
Diaz - 204
Arozerena - 134
Ramirez - 173
Paredes - 124
Mead - 130
Margot - 84
Walls - 121
Siri - 70
Pinto - 97

And I just noticed they're carrying 15 position players. That's such a Rays move. So many PH & PR options.

You're right, just had a closer look at the schedule, Tuesday the 10th is only the two AL teams so at least one of those should be prime time. Maybe also the 13th if either series goes 5.

That seems crazy but then in a three game series you only have to cover 27 innings tops. If your starters can average 4 innings that leaves 15 innings over the final 7 guys. Most bullpen arms can do 2 days out of 3.

Good for Minnesota. Joey Gallo looking for a deep playoff run.

I think Jon Gray is on the 15 day DL, so I doubt he's pitching Game 3.

Yup noticed that from the jump and had to check if he was even on the roster. If anything he helps the metric for the Rangers,

Sucks for the Rays. Easy to root for. I hate that we were the ones to send them home. But the season goes on.

The Ray's were gangbusters until the injuries set in. The Jay's were streaky. But with the balanced scheduling it may boil down to timing of when they played top teams etc.

he Dodgers and Astros are heavy favorites, and Orioles Atlanta are slight favorites to win their Division Series, per http://SportsBetting.ag



that site has:

Astros -160 "heavy favorite"

Atlanta -180 "slight favorite"

odd way to describe it.

I honestly need the break, but no baseball today is weak. At least we can look forward to tonight's La Tech vs. Western KY.
