Clay Holmes and Chase Burns set up a pitchers' duel as Cubs visit Reds at Great American Ball Park

It is somewhat difficult to believe that the baseball season is almost at a close. I was considering some of the early or preseason thoughts and where they are now. I thought the Royals and Mariners would be good teams this season. I didn't expect the Rays to be quite this good. I did have the Brewers and Cubs being successful, and in this order. I was way off on any awards, but my player props look like they are in great shape. Now we head into the last few days of baseball. Tonight the Cubs take on the Reds.
