Wallman vs. Jacoby:
First off, it’s a shame Todd has to sit out the rest of the
season. Good luck and I hope you’re 100% for next season. The silver lining fo
Team Wallman is that Scott Seidenberg is an even replacement for a high third
round pick. He’s especially dangerous on Union Hill, but only if Team Jacoby
pitches to him. I think we’ll only see a Seidenberg bomb if there’s nobody on
base. Team Jacoby is on a roll similar to the one they were on last year. There’s
something special about going after back to back championships with many
returning players from the original winning team. The hot streak will continue
tonight.
Prediction: Jacoby
Randell vs. Lapine:
Before the season started I felt Lapine would go through an initial
rough stretch before finding its groove. This is what often happens when you
draft a team full of rookies. True to form, Lapine started out 1-3 before
Sunday’s victory over Goldfarb. Could this be the start of a dominant stretch?
Not quite yet. A team who has had a few shaky defensive games so far has to get
used to playing under the Wednesday night lights. All us outfielders know that seeing
the ball Wednesday night isn’t the same as Sunday morning. On the other side of
the diamond is a team that is clicking on all cylinders. While Lapine’s “youth”movement
will prosper in the long term, I feel tonight they’ll come up short.
Prediction: Randell
