Younger vs. Marrone- Right now this is the story of two
teams going in opposite directions. Marrone was one of the pleasant surprises
to start the season, but they’ve hit a rough patch. Meanwhile Team Younger will
miss Pat Brock but gains Adam Greenspan. Not a bad consolation prize. Team
Younger is one of the teams I thought would have a much stronger second half
than first half even before the season due to its rookies and Pat Brock
recovery time. Taking Brock out of the equation, and I still think it’s true.
No one will want to play Younger in the playoffs, and tonight we’ll start to
see why.
Predicted Winner: Younger
Wallman vs. Lapine- While I have raved about Lapine in
recent rankings, tonight’s game can present a problem. Word on the street is
their missing the AL’s
leading hitter Dean Curreri and they still have the underrated issue of rookies
dealing with the tough Wednesday night lights. Meanwhile, Wallman has been on a
bit of a roll. Lapine will present a bigger challenge, and Wallman should see
this as a message game Ultimately, I think Lapine pulls this one out. Great
teams win even when missing a star player. I like the energy of the team as it
seems like someone new comes through each game.
Predicted Winner: Lapine
