You'd rather seethe team that has knocked you out of the playoffs for years?
Best part about this CAL regular season is that people are completely ignoring how good VIR is right now.
Yes. Virginia is considerably less scary in a 7 game series without Morgan. I know Gus is lights out in the playoffs, but hes no Morgan. I'm not saying it wouldn't be tough, but I think VA is a more winnable matchup for us.
But again, gotta win the wildcard first of course.

I'd take the VIR 1-2-3 over CAL, BAL or CAR in a series. Pitching wins in the playoffs.
Clearly he isn't the player he use to be, but still a .798 OPS for the season. Kid hasn't hit for average since 95 and I'm sure playing in righty friendly Pawtucket help a bit.

You probably could drag in two body bags or even a couple of guys from the Syracuse rotation, and still have a great chance because of Pancho. So that goes without saying. However, Gus isnt particularly scary right now and I don't even know who would be your #3.
In the end, I think all four teams have very good(not great) rotations that are comparable 1-2-3 talent-wise. Barring any late season cold streaks that mysteriously but justly strike either team, it will probably be VA and Cali as the last men standing just because their offenses are just better than BAL or CAR.

I'll take my chances with the #3 who hasn't given up an ER since the All-Star game.... OH... and has never lost a Playoff game. Probably a dice roll.
