who will be the wild cards in each league?
Rooting for: Atlanta and Tampa.
Expecting: St. Louis and Boston. I'd appreciate if the Phils could lay down for Atlanta.
dube what did Braun do to appear to be a cocky SOB?
Whenever he hits a huge home run, he usually looks to the Brewer dugout with a smug expression while walking a few steps to first.
When he hit a HR to break the Brewer single-season rookie HR mark (or maybe tie), he walked maybe a quarter of the way down the line while looking at Fielder in the dugout--I'd post a vid but I can't find one. After his HR Friday, he holds the bat up after hitting the ball, gets the smug look and walks a few steps. Yeah, it was celebration mode with the last one--but I'm still surprised with baseball's 'unwritten rules' that he didn't get plunked the next night.
Personally, I think it's cool and of course not close to the douchy-ness of what Bryce Harper can pull--just curious on an 'outsider's' opinion.
