Critical Weekend

By the time my next entry is written, we will have a champion. Will it be the Sugar Bears winning an unprecedented fourth straight title? or will it be the Mighty Men winning their second championship?

The Mighty Men have thought long and hard about going with a tired Francisco Liriano in game six, but opted to go the safer route with A.J. Burnett. Liriano has never pitched so many innings in his pro career, so who knows if this will have any effect for next year. Liriano was already complaining of various aches and pains after his last start. Owner David Landsman was questioned about overworking the phenom. "I didn't trade a first rounder for the kid to sit in the dugout during games" said Landsman. "He's going to pitch when he's told to and that's that."

The Sugar Bears, meanwhile, will toss their Wang out for game six after showing their Johnson in the previous game. "Personally, I'd rather see Bush than either of those" said Landsman. He added "I feel like I'm playing one of those crazy 'theme teams' of Garretson's."
