Commish Picks: May Edition

Rose Cronin of the Padres deals against the Twins. The Padres would go on to win 7-6.

3 days until we meet again on the hallowed grounds of Shed Field.  Here are my predictions for each of the 6 games:

Game 1: Blue Jays vs. Red Sox:  The Jays are 0-3 and already look winded from only 1 month of games.  The young and energetic Red Sox will come out fast and shut down the Blue Jays quick and pain-free.  Red Sox 8-1

Game 2: Twins vs. Padres:  The Padres are 3-0 and ranked 4th in the nation (according to the NWLA).  Derek Dust is projected to make his first start of the year for the 'Dres, while rookie sensation Tony Thompson will likely get the nod for the Twins.  Tony will dominate on the hill but if manager Joe Cronin pulls him early the league leaders in HR will take advantage. Padres 4-3

Game 3: Padres vs. Red Sox: Padres 15-0

Game 4: Twins vs. Blue Jays:  The Twins will recover from an early loss behind stellar batting from the Joes (Joe Hubly and Joe Cronin).  The Blue Jays will struggle to get in a groove and fall once again. Twins 6-2

Game 5: Red Sox vs.Twins:  The Twins fell to the Red Sox in April after a big 14-run rally.  This time the Twins will remember their mistakes and get some payback. Twins 8-5

Game 6: Padres vs. Blue Jays:  The Blue Jays will give the Padres a run for their money while looking for their first win of the season.  A walk-off dinger from Andrew Cronin will seal the victory in extra innings. Padres 5-3
