PlayOffs Round 2

#5 Las Vegas Slobs vs #1 Monterrey Corn Dogs - The Slobs swept the Yanks, I really expected the Yanks to win at least one. Season series 7-3 in favor of the Corn Dogs. One thing to note about the season series is the fact the Slobs were 3-3 in Monterrey and the four game sweep by Monterrey occurred early in the season. That means the opening series could be a split even though the Corn Dogs are well rested. The Slobs will need to win at home to have a chance. Monterrey is favored 3-1.

#6 Huntington Good Will vs #2 Kansas City Royals - The Good Will came from a 0-2 hole to get here. Will their power game propel them past the Royals? The series was even at 5-5. It will boil down to who scores the most runs and expect them to be high scoring, well that is how a team wins. KC is favored 3-2 in a shoot out.

#5 Chicago Cubs vs #1 Cincinnati Reds - Reds own the season series 8-2. Cubs won their two games at home at separate times. Cubs swept the Pepperjackets to get here, I did expect the 'jackets to win one. A classic match up between two very good teams, but it favors the Reds at 3-1.

#6 Milwaukee Brewers vs #2 Atlanta Pork-N-Beans - PnB's won the series 6-4. Brewers beat a feisty Houston bunch in an upset, was it experience?. I expect this one to go 5 games with Atlanta favored 3-2.
