The NLCS starts tonight as the Dodgers and the Phillies square off in game one. Clayton Kershaw will start for LA while Cole Hamels will start for Philly. As for the series, it looks like the Dodgers have an advantage in every facet of the game. I'll take the Dodgers in 5 games.
The ALCS starts tomorrow with the Yankees hosting the Angels. CC Sabathia will start for New York and John Lackey starts for LA-Anaheim. The Angels have a stronger starting rotation, but with the Yankees going to a 3-man rotation that advantage may be minimized. New York has a better bullpen and a better offense. I'll take the Yankees in 6 games.
Drew Storen got a save last night for the Phoenix Desert Dogs in the Arizona Fall League. In one inning of work, Storen gave up one hit and struck out one batter.
Lance Lynn has been scratched from the Cardinal contingent of the Arizona Fall League. No reason has been given at this time.
The Braves may have solved their starting rotation "issues". The rumor is that Tim Hudson will decline the $12 million option and test the free agent market. I like Huddy, and I hope he catches on somewhere. So, now the rotation is set with Vasquez, Jurrjens, Lowe, Hanson, and Kawakami.
The Ball State football team is a 3.5 point underdog at home against Bowling Green. The O/U is 54.5. With the way both defenses play, I would be surprised if the total stays under that mark. BGSU loves to pass and we love to let other teams pass against us. There was one change in the pass defense this week and freshman Jason Pinkston will start at corner for Koreen Burch, who has struggled over the past few games. This will give Pinkston some experience which could help the team in a few years.
