Game 3: STL @ TB

Game 6: TB @ STL
Game 7: TB @ STL

TB:

SP Miller out 1 - 2 weeks
SP Peavy tired, 108 pitches 2 days ago
SP Pfarr tired, 63 pitches 3 days ago

STL:

SP Oropesa DTD for 4 - 5 weeks at 70%

[Providence A's]

tentatively...

Game 1: Harden
Game 2: Oropesa
Game 3: Butler
Game 4: Knipp
Game 5: Harden
Game 6: Oropesa
Game 7: Butler

I may take Knipp out altogether as he has struggled in all of his career playoff starts...but man, how can you take a 20 game winner out of your rotation? Although...it'd mean Harden would pitch games 1, 4, and 7...

[Providence A's]

don't forget DH and non-DH lineups...

[browntown653]

Will send stuff in a bit...

[browntown653]

All right, sending DH lineups now and here's the rotation...

Game 1: Bachelder
Game 2: Pfarr
Game 3: Peavy
Game 4: Lester
Game 5: Bachelder
Game 6: Pfarr
Game 7: Peavy
Game 8: Miller



Good luck Prov, I'm sure you'll win but we shall see

[Providence A's]

you're sure I'll win why?

[browntown653]

You won 116 games and my team has no Andrew Miller...although OOTP does crazy things

[Providence A's]

well, you were right Brownie...sweep success! Three of the games were decided by 1 run though.

Congrats Prov, and Brownie.

Now lets roll this over to next year!

And if you wanna do the entire 2016 season in 3 sims (one up till the draft, another up til the deadline, and another through the end of the season), I'd be all for that

[NYgiantsfan5689]

wow, those were real close. Game 1 decided in the 8th, and Games 2 and 3 were extra innings. Great series you two.

[browntown653]

Can't say I'm surprised...Prov you deserved this one after a 116-win season. Congrats and here's to an eventual Round 3

[Providence A's]

nah...I wanna fade into the sunset and just focus on individual achievements now...
