Wednesday Night Preview

Pollock vs. Carlin


While I can't predict a winner in this game, I can say that this is another great Wednesday night matchup. The American League #1 seed is likely going to come down to one of these two teams, and Team Pollock will be looking to create some distance at the top. While having the #1 seed is always desirable, a quick look at the AL Standings show just how crucial it is this season. As of now the #2 seed would play a very dangerous Team Schefkind. Their 4-10 record hides the fact that they've kept it close in almost every game. Team Pollock beat Carlin 20-3 in their first meeting but as my brother pointed out in his weekly recap, that feels like it was played last season already.



Beilis vs. Harris:

Projected Winner: Harris

I expect this to be another "making a statement" game in Team Harris's climb towards NL respectability. A 6-8 record in the AL would have you in the middle of the pack, but a sub .500 team in the NL gets you the 7th seed. Harris seems on paper to be a better fit for Union Hill, and I wouldn't be surprised if action on Union Hill Left has to stop so we can retrieve one or two Justin Callow HR balls.
