Interesting! I'm glad you see the Astros winning the division at least.

The Rangers have a nice lead but I am not sure the rotation remains healthy, or that they get adequate help to dump Lohse out of the rotation. A really healthy quality starter (2?) and Jonathan Lucroy might change my opinion though.

Have the same as you except my ALCS has the Jays and Rangers

Right now the Jays big question mark is their bullpen.  This could be solved if they move Sanchez to the bullpen.  If this happens then they need a starter.  I dont think Hutchinson will cut it.  From what i here there deadline moves will be for not just this year but next year as well.  In other words they will obtain players where they have some control.  Picking up Bruce would be nice as i believe he is under control for next year.  If this happens then you will definitely not see Bautista or Saunders back next year imo.

The rest of July is going to be very interesting to see what moves are made

Watch out for the Rangers. Lohse is going to be out. They are going to make a trade for a SP, hopefully Matt Moore or Santana. I don't see them getting Lucroy. 

For long relief help, I'm hoping they get Harris from Milwaukee. With Kela coming back, he will be another addition. Darvish coming back as well. They need to wait for Lewis though, and I hope they get rid of Hollland. fool.

Rangers vs Cleveland in the ALCS.

Giants vs Nats in NLCS

Rangers vs Giants

Rangers!!!

More speculation - originally the A's slated Rich Hill for tomorrow's start. He has been pulled for Mengden and I suspect he is gone. Boston maybe? 

Aaron Sanchez is the solid #2 now sac, very solid.

Would you put 1-3 units each on SFG and TOR to win the WS?

I think the Marlins will become the "bet on" team over the 2nd half of the season. After a 5-11 start, they're currently 6 games over .500 despite being 8 games under .500 within the division. Most of those divisional losses occurred early on and positive progression is likely. Nothing about them screams awesome, but everything says they're better than average with real upside. They'll win this division at current +900 odds. Quite generous due to the love affair over the Mets and Nats.

Not sure why I said Harris. I meant Will Smith. I think I was thinking of Will Harris, on the Astros.

Lo and behold, Rangers have reached out to the Brewers for Lucroy and Smith. Lets see what happens.

For the ALCS i'll say it comes down to Red Sox vs Indians
For the NLCS i'm going to have to go with Cubs vs Giants

World Series will be Indians vs Giants. Bay Area vs Ohio again for the title. Giants win the World series again in even number years.. or who knows maybe Cleveland gets lucky, 2 championships in 1 year wow who wouldve think it... 

I'll take Giants to win it all. 


Sip on that plus money honey!
