That maybe the Nationals aren't going to dominate like they were projected too.

I would be a little weary of them and wait and see how they do when they are not playing the Astros, Mariners and Angels and getting 13 of their season wins so far.

Boston Red Sox will be in the WS.
Fine blend of veterens and gamers. Pitching, defense and speed as good as anybodys.

It's importance of the bullpen is as important as starters now. Ever since the Cubs signed Kevin Gregg and made him the closer, the bullpen issues disappeared.

Hard to believe how well Gregg has pitched so far. He was a disaster when the Cubs had him a few years ago. As a Cubs fan, I hope his success continues but wouldn't count on it.

Probably not, but it puts Marmol in a 8th inning role with Russell and moves Camp to long relief (much better).

Okay its May..

What have you learned?

As said before, a part the 1st week, the others 3 weeks were not much good quite for all the cappers here where quite all barely draws with fatigue their balance. This because EVERY team can play good one night, and very bad the other. Also the strong teams are very very irregular.
One of the most consistent team is boston red sox.

Said this, think is useless to cap every night, day after day, but should be more profitable to cap only 3 or 4 games at week. The games where is more security, like, for example, the 2nd game of nyy-astros serie. Ok, cap every nigh is more fun but think is more profitable cap only few games every week.

All the Red Sox bets to win the division, pennant, and World Series that I held are going to give me a lot of sleepless nights this summer.

I don't know what you're seeing but I'm pretty damn happy with my Yankees being 17-10 right now. So many injuries, and fighting through them rather well I'd say.
My favorite team is awful (Yankees) as expected, and baseball is insanely hard to cap. LOL.

Yeah, if I were a Yankee fan I'd be pretty optimistic about my team.

Usually not a critical person but Braves should seriously consider starting Schafer in BJ Uptons spot. Upton just a strikeout machine some nights while Schafer hustles and tries to make things happen. Heyward has been out with injury so Schafer has had to sub in Right some nights but a temporary or even permanent move to Center when Heyward returns may pay off. Gonzalez in all likelyhood won't make the switch thinking Upton will eventually come around but the individual can always speculate.
