WEDNESDAY MORNING UPDATE

Very interesting developments on Tuesday night.

In the Mathews Division, Joe is going to go 0-4.  Brett and Avery are battling for the 4-0 position with Brett currently holding a slight edge.  If Brett holds his lead, and Avery goes 3-1, as he most likely would, Avery will lead the division by 1 game over Joe and by 2 games over Brett heading into the final weekend.  If Avery manages to get to 4-0, which could happen with a strong game from Ryan Franklin, he will hold a 2 game lead over Joe and 4 game lead over Brett.  Avery is back in the playoffs drivers seat, but all three teams will still have a shot.

In the Spahn Division, Joel has a chance to pick up 4 games on Tief and keep a mathematical chance of winning the division going into Friday.  His SP is Liriano tonight.  He hold about a 10 point lead on the week over Jake who has Tim Hudson pitching tonight in Atlanta.

Joel should also gain ground in the wild card race as Hicks is looking at a 2-2 at best.  Hicks currently leads the wild card race by 4 games.
