Here are the crucial games so you can plan your weekend. I almost didn’t include NL games. I don’t know when it happened, but I just don’t care about the NL anymore.
I’ve read on ESPN.com that more games than indicated here may get airtime. If I find anything definite I’ll update this post. I might add the spreads, too.
Oh, and this is courtesy ESPN.com.
