How do you figure Stroman will be favored against Cueto? :/

The cubs won't go after Price next season, they are going after Cespedes or Greinke.

EDIT: I think Price will be a Dodger next season.

I wouldn't say Price is a favorite. Has a 6ish ERA in the post season.

Ventura has a 7 era if youre gonna use small sample sizes like that. .....

Because you fail to recognize that he's not better.

Stroman is a great young pitcher, but he's not better than Cueto. That's all

could be wrong, but pretty sure i read that.

Cubs/Mets/Dodgers (any combo of those 3... sick of the Cardinals) and KC/Toronto (i'd love to see Springer and the Astros but they aren't ready yet) would be an awesome postseason
damn, Davestradamous

reading old posts is great.

I understand but Cuetos last home start against the Astros he was electric. If I were betting I'd take cueto.

I don't have the energy to see if this is 100% fact, but even if its mostly true that is crazy. Guess we'll see at 8:07 tonight. If Toronto's bats stay hot from the past game we may see game 7

How short is the hook? Even the outs are being hit hard. If KC can take this lead into 6th you can wrap this series up.
