We would have to go 1-6, while either Milwaukee or St. Louis would have to win out. It would really be nice to clinch the division on the Cards' home field though, so I hope they just win the next 2. As has been the case for awhile now, it appears likely that we will be facing the Nationals in the NLDS. The teams are really evenly matched, IMO.

hrubes20 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 NL Central Champs again. I don't even know what 3 straight years of playoff baseball means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blazer026 Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 I actually would support seeing Hendricks start Game 1. That's what I want. He hasn't given up more than 3 runs in a game since June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pwny Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 Now’s time to get guys some rest and get the rotation set. Not really sure there’s a wrong answer for who to start Game 1. Q is the only one that doesn’t make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really sure there’s a wrong answer for who to start Game 1. Q is the only one that doesn’t make sense. Arrieta supposedly isn't an option until Game 3 now, as his hammy was acting up the other night. Lester is pitching badly, but he's got the postseason experience and pedigree. Hendricks has been really, really good of late. Q actually has been really good lately as well. He probably only gives up 1 run today if the regular starters are playing behind him. I personally would go: Game 1 - Hendricks Game 2- Lester Game 3 - Arrieta Game 4 (If necessary) - Q Have we heard any updates on Almora's availability for the NLDS?

hrubes20 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I wonder if Joe will go the 2016 route and take 3 catchers again on the playoff roster. Rivera has been quite good, but I tend to think he won’t. My guess is: C - Contreras 1B - Rizz 2B - Javy SS - Addy 3B - KB LF - Meatball CF - Jay RF - Heyward BN- Happ BN - Almora BN- Avila BN - La Stella BN - Martin SP - Arrieta SP - Lester SP - Hendricks SP - Q Garbage time only - Grimm LR - Lackey LR/Lefty - Montgomery LRP - Duensing SU - Strop SU - Rondon SU - Edwards CL - Davis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazer026 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Agree with the rotation. I feel like they might go with Wilson over Grimm though. Even though they both have been disappointing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
