Throughout the 2019 MLB season, the Braves and Dodgers were widely accepted as the National League’s two best teams but neither will play in the NL Championship Series.

Mlb Playoffs 2019 Nationals Name Max Scherzer Wild Card Game Starter

Stephen Strasburg and Patrick Corbin will also be available in relief. Scherzer’s three Cy Young awards and seven All-Star appearances may make this decision seem obvious, but Friday, Strasburg was actually named the organization’s pitcher of the year and the Brewers (who the Nationals very well could face in the game) are actually worse against left-handed starters than right-handers so Corbin is a good option as well. Here is the thing though: Scherzer is the Nationals’ absolute best and, statistically, he has been just as good as the NL’s likely Cy Young winner this season in Mets righty Jacob deGrom....

Mlb Rumors Orioles Eyeing Veteran Rhp A.J. Burnett

Mlb Trade Rumors Indians Discussing Deal For Mariners Domingo Santana

Cleveland had discussions with Seattle on Tuesday about the right-handed hitter, but no deal appears to be imminent, according to The Athletic. Santana is having a nice bounce-back season with the Mariners as he is batting .273 with 20 home runs and 66 RBIs. He was traded to Seattle from Milwaukee in the offseason after he struggled to find his way into a loaded Brewers lineup last season. The year before that, though, he tallied 30 home runs and drove in 85 runs while stealing 15 bases....
