Bryce Harper Megathread

At this point, excuses aside we have a better record than the Dodgers do. The reasons for that are valid but we have a better record. That makes the Braves the better team...period.

Dodgers better than Tigers and Cardinals?

Tigers, barely.

Over the Cards, yes.

Better rotation by far lead by the best pitcher on the planet. Better bullpen, not quite a better lineup but not too far off.

What rotation do you take in a playoff series.

Kershaw, Greinke, Ryu, and Nolasco or Waino, Miller, Westbrook, Lynn.

Dodgers kill them in the rotation.

Wainwright is just as good as Kershaw

Miller is having a much better year than Greinke

the other 4 are all interchangable.

Also, STL has better BP numbers and Mujica and Rosenthal > Jensen and League or whatever combo they are using this week.
 
Well that's the beauty of baseball. The Braves just handled Wainwrite and the Cards, and if that had been the NLCS rather than a random series in July we would be beside ourselves with joy.

Fact of the matter is that Minor and Teheran have shown they are capable of shutting another team down, and the Braves have enough studs in the lineup to win a close game singlehandedly. In the postseason it's usually about your studs being studs, or someone who isn't a stud playing out of their mind for a week.

For the record, I expect JUpton to go full Beltran this postseason.

And I expect Johnson to go full Lemke.

My fat white ass Waino is as good as Kershaw.

Greinke has also been out for a month and is just now pitching like he can or capable.

Ryu has an ERA under 3. No team in the NL except maybe Washington can match that top 3.

They use Jansen, Belasario, Paco Rodriguez and some others out of the pen. League doesn't pitch except in mop up duty or blowouts.

What are Wainwright, Lynn, and MIller's numbers compared to the 3 in LA, adjusted for park?

No idea, but I'll take the Dodgers top 4, you take the Cards top 4.

I'll win the NL, you'll be sitting at home watching the WS.
