These kinds of 1-0 and 2-1 games tend to happen in the postseason, though. Do you have any confidence that this Oriole team can win such games? -
I don’t know the meaning of Moshagge, but that’s meshuggah. (If you don’t know the meaning of the latter, Google it.) -

It's more of a poll and question in one. Do you think they'll get home field advantage? And if so, which game does it happen on? There are only 3 games left. A bunch of teams are throwing the ole TBD today/this weekend up based on what happens with other teams. The funny thing is the Tigers aren't even showing a starter, yet, but they are the first game of the AL WC teams. I reckon they have an interesting decision since the White Sox are throwing Crochet tonight. -

I wouldn't categorize the pen as bad, but I would categorize them as the worst of the AL playoff bullpens. The Royals are better than their aggregate looks. They transitioned a few guys from starting to relieving, one of them being Bubic who has been amazing. 2.76 ERA, 1.97 FIP, 11.7 SO/9, 1.5 BB/9. Those are lights out numbers. The only 2 O's that come close are Coulombe and Akin, and Akin is abysmal in high leverage situations whereas Bubic is lights out. There are other notables for them: Erceg (2.88 ERA, 1.17 FIP, 11.2 SO/9, 1.1 BB/9), of course. But also Schreiber, Zerpa, Hernandez, and Lynch are all above average arms. You look around the AL playoff picture, and the O's just don't have any elite 1-2 punches. They have an elite 1 punch in Coulombe. They have a bunch of above average arms, but none (aside from Coulombe) that you can really trust. -

Wait, are you saying that it's the combined H2H? I guess that does make sense. So, in that circumstance, in a 3 way tie...the Tigers get the #4 seed, the O's #5, and Royals #6?
