Week 16 Preview

Last week: 4-1-1
Overall: 49-32-3
Mismatch: 8-6
Upset special: 4-8


Match of the Week
Jack (8-5-2) vs. Joe (10-4-1)
Line:
Joe -1.5
Info: A win by Jack really makes this division race interesting, but if he loses and falls 2.5 behind, it's probably time to relegate him to simply wild-card status.
All-time series: Joe 5-1-3
2011 result: Tie 10-10
Prediction: Joe 11-9

Mismatch of the Week
Ken (8-6-1) vs. Rick (1-12-2)
Line:
Ken -5
Info: How can Ken be winless in five straight weeks and still be a huge favorite? Duh.
All-time series: Rick 5-4
2011 result: Ken 14-5
Prediction: Ken 13-6

Upset of the Week
Andy (4-11) vs. Shea (7-8)
Line:
Shea -3
Info: We like the guarantee from Andy, so therefore we're going to roll the dice on this one. Shea, of course, set the standards for guarantees this season with his win over Chris earlier.
All-time series: Shea 5-4
2011 result: Shea 11-7
Prediction: Andy 9-8

Upset of the Week II
Chris (8-6-1) vs. Hal (6-9)
Line:
Chris -2
Info: I'm handing it over to Hal, who contacted me to tell me this: "I feel that I've got a very good chance to upset Chris this week with six pitchers going twice, including Halladay."
All-time series: Hal 2-1
2011 result: Chris 16-3
Prediction: Hal 11-8

Rest of the Week
Mike (10-4-1) vs. Dave (6-8-1)
Line:
Mike -4
Info: Gotta wonder if Mike is going to stumble against a lesser opponent at some point. He didn't vs. Rick, and he won't vs Dave this week.
All-time series: Mike 6-3
2011 result: Mike 11-8
Prediction: Mike 10-9

Bob (10-5) vs. Adam (8-7)
Line:
Adam -0.5
Info: The oddsmakers have Adam as the favorite, which has to tell you something about how well his team is playing lately.
All-time series: Bob 7-2
2011 result: Bob 12-7
Prediction: Adam 11-7

    I did stumble against a lesser opponent, tied Rick early in year. But I am nervous this week, 3 pitchers on DL and Braun can't play a whole game. But I like your 10-9 prediction, rest of the team will pick us up.

    I wanna play some predictions...
    Mike 10-8
    Shea 12-7
    Joe 11-7
    Chris 10-9
    Adam 11-8
    Kent 14-6
