While they have a great chance tonight, I don't see them getting past the Nats...and the AL is too good for the Bucs.

I like them better against the Cards and the only reason I like their chances tonight is that Martin is playing and they hit Bumgarner well.

Thats why I'm saying I like their chances in the WS if they were to manage to get there. It would take a herculean effort and a tremendous hot streak to make it past to top NL teams.

Generally I think it's all a coin flip at this point. While I don't think we're really as good as a lot of the remaining teams (and I didn't think we would get this far as it is), the margin between good and bad teams in baseball is so tiny. A horrible team still wins 4 out of 10 while a great one probably 6.

The difference between the Bucs and a WS caliber team is a lot. The pitching is no way good enough to be a championship contender, and most everybody will have to click in the offense. They will have to play great ball every single game and it's just not gonna happen.

10 Worst World Series Champions Ever.


I think the Bucs could take pretty much any of these teams, with possible exception of DBacks with Big Unit and Schilling.
