Advanced to 2nd round and now matched up with #1 seed. They finished 102-60, twenty games better than me. They are ranked in the top 3 in hitting and fielding and better than average in pitching even though their home park is 0, 2, 0, 2, 3.
My team went 8-2 against them in the regular season but most of the games were 1-run or 2-run games. I am debating whether to pitch my best starters in Games 1 and 2 on the road or save them for games 3 and 4 where my ballpark (-4, -3, -3, -4, -4) is more pitching friendly.
He has two top-notch SP's, one of which went 20-1 in the regular season (his lone loss to me ironically) and two others that I am not concerned about.
My #3 and #4 are better than his statistically. Do I roll the dice hoping I can split against his aces in the first two games? If I can do that, I might be able to get ahead in the series.
Any suggestions?
