pick the unfantastic 4
In descending order:
-Houston
-Minnesota
-New York
-AL (I really hate these fuckers.)
Houston is unflappable as the worst in either Puhl. no surprise there. goreds would argue.
people can make the claim that HOU has an advantage in the 2SP game(as you can use both Scott, and Ryan), but with thier weak offense, and the other team having an extra starter, i dont believe it benefits HOU at all.
I see Hou more dangerous in 1SP game.

Correct, Hou is more dangerous in 1 SP, especially best of 7 no reset version because they have 2 solid SP
I did not vote for Detroit in this poll.

Darkside's unfantastic four and why:
1. MIN, average starting pitching, average hitting for contact and power, and their bullpen only compounds any disaster.
2. HOU, not enough power, average contact hitters, and a horrible bullpen.
3. NYM, too inconsistent all around in the line up. Average power with average contact.
4. DET, their starting pitching scares not even HOU. It is Instant firework show when the bullpen comes in and gets lit up.

Darkside's fantastic two and why:
1. NYM, a good starter in gooden, a sidearmer in the pen, and a guy with a good drop ball.
4. DET, a offense that consistently puts enough runs on the board to overcome thier sometimes suspect pitching..

Gooden is not a quality starter. He rarely deals against RBI Jedi players.
DET's offense is a myth on dee nee. Vastly over rated. Yes, a good offense, but they are just not consistent enough. Their pitching kills them when they go up against RBI Jedi masters.
Every team's players have weak points. And DET has it's share. Certain pitches for certain players.
the fact that DET is lefty heavy on the bats can be an achilles heel for them.
det's terrible error rate kills them in competition. i've experienced that first hand.

Only a RBI Jedi knows how to deal with a top heavy lefty lineup. The only exception would be Reggie Jackson.

So very true when you speak of DET. CA is not that far behind due to their sloppy play on defense.
