Atlanta over Phillies (please)
LA over Arizona
Houston over Twins
Rangers over Orioles. ( Hedges will be the difference )

I'm going to tell your wife not only were you pouting, but you were given special honor by being referred to as "Wizard". I think we need to send you some jockstraps. Hedge's shouldn't even be that dirty

Surg, I stand corrected and apologize for my pouting. My wife
said " honey, you are a Wizard as far as I am concerned"!!

Phillies/Braves - I'll be the outlier here. I think the Phils are on a mission. Starting pitching concerns abound for each team in this series, but I'm going out on a shaky limb and taking the Phillies.

D'Backs/Dodgers - Oh, how I would like to see the Dodgers get bumped off here, but I just doubt it happens. Still, I'll take Arizona in a tight one.

Twins/Astros - Would love to see the Twins pull the upset, but Houston takes it.

Rangers/Orioles - Pulling for the Orioles here. Young team on the rise. Their starting pitching is a little more stable than the Rangers. My only concern is the lay-off they've had while the Rangers played Tampa. I'll still take the O's

Texas takes the first game in their series with Baltimore, 3-2.

Jose Altuve, the little cheat, hit the first pitch for a HR in Houston’s opener with Minnesota. The Astros lead 3-0 after four.

Houston wins Game 1 of their series with Minnesota, 6-4.

I thought the Twins were going to complete the comeback after the back to back HR's. Verlander looked sharp as a tack

Trea Turner starts an incredible double play in the bottom of the 8th. That's the kind of play that can grow into legend if the Phils keep moving on
