Little to say here that hasn’t already been said over the course of this fantastic, epic rivalry. The Browns’ performance this year, in light of the injuries they have suffered including three members of their rotation (most notably Joe Williams) has been nothing short of miraculous and I have no doubt whatsoever that our success or failure in this Series rests with how our pitching performs. Mackey, Sisler, Collins, Spratt and McHenry are all weapons and they hit a whopping 307 as a team this year. I’ve moved Leblanc up to SP2 with Streeter, who really struggled after his hot start, down to SP3 and Ruether will get that one start in the SP4 slot.
