There are only four to seven games left in the Major League Baseball season.
The 2011 World Series opens tonight with the Texas Rangers at the St. Louis Cardinals.
Rogers Sportsnet has the game starting at 7:30pm.
The MLB Insider for sportsnet.ca says both teams have a lot of character which should translate into an entertaining Fall Classic.
“To me this series is going to be decided by the two bullpens.” said Shi Davidi.
Davidi is picking the Rangers to win in six games.
The Cards have four former Blue Jays on their roster : Chris Carpenter, Marc Rzepczynski, Octavio Dotel and Corey Patterson.
Texas has Michael Young who was drafted by the Jays in 1997.
