Since
the MLB is counting down to October and teams are trying to widen gaps in each
division, let’s talk about my fantasy team on MLB the Show. The Atlanta Braves
are my fantasy team that just clinched the postseason with a Wild Card game bid
against the Philadelphia Phillies.
The
two arms on the mound were Jeff Smardzija, Phillies, and my southpaw, DavidPrice. I thought it was going to be a rough outing for Price when he gave up a
homer to Kevin Pillar in the first.
I
was set at ease when I got on the board with a three-run blast from big man
Aaron Judge. Judge managed to hit the Chop House in right field of Sun Trust
Stadium.
I
managed to get two more runs in the game. One was in the third and the other
was in the fourth inning. The Phillies never scored another run and I would
manage to win 5-1.
Jeff
Samardzija pitched five innings giving up 10 hits with five earned runs and one
strikeout. On my side David Price pitched a gem of a game although he gave up
one run. Price’s line was eight innings giving up one run and three hits while
striking out nine batters.
Price
wasn’t the only player on my team that played well. Aaron Judge was my top
hitter going 2-4 with one homer and three RBIs in the winning effort. However, Price would get the MVP honors for the Wild Card Game.
My
Braves move on to the NLDS to play the LA Dodgers. I am thinking that I will
start my other southpaw, Alex Wood. Wood carried my pitching staff by winning
the CY Young. We shall see how this will work out and hopefully it will be a
glorious win.
