Yesterday, we correctly predicted the Giants to beat the Nationals, our first correct prediction since Game 1 of the Cardinals-Dodgers NLDS. This gives us a final record of 4-10 for the division series. Which is terrible, but not as terrible as some ESPN analysts. Couple things we learned from the first round and what we are looking forward to in the second round:
- We are excited to watch Bryce Harper fully-healthy next year.
- The rise of Brandon Finnegan has been incredible.
- The starts failed to shine. Especially in Los Angeles. We're looking at you, Mike Trout and Clayton Kershaw.
- There were no Game 5s, but the majority of the DS games were intense to the end. Hopefully the CS games continue the trend.
- The same teams continue to get it done in the NL. The Giants and Cardinals in the NLCS is like Groundhog Day.
- Finally some new teams representing the AL. No one likes a Yankees, Red Sox, Tigers snoozefest.
- Royals speed vs Orioles power is going to be awesome.
