2011 MLB Playoffs Coming Soon

Posted on: September 12, 2011 by No Comments

Let’s face it, for many fans their favorite teams are either in the running for the playoffs or completely out. There is still time left in the season for a few teams to make a run at it, while others have records that are just too low.

For many fans this can actually be the best time of the season watching teams just out of the playoff picture make a last ditch effort to gain as many wins as possible to make it to the finals. The key at this point for many of these teams will be their pitching. At this point in the season, either injuries to pitchers or the fact that they are just too tired will affect a team’s push to make it. The bullpen is often over used during this point in the season when teams are trying to rest their starters as much as possible. Often times this can backfire on coaches if they are not careful.

Of course the rest of the team has to put out big numbers as well to keep their teams alive. Without some hot bats, a team might as well pack up the equipment for the rest of the season. So sit back and enjoy the rest of the season! It will be quite a ride for many teams.
