Re: Playoff predictions?

NLDS

Dodgers vs. Cubs


The Cubs pitching falls apart and the Dodgers bullpen takes control of the series.

Dodgers 3-1

Brewers vs. Phillies

Just like the Twins when they made the playoffs with Santana, the Brewers will get good but not great performances from Sabathia but the Phillies will crush their bullpen.

Phillies 3-0

NLCS

Phillies vs. Dodgers

Now the Phillies run up against some good pitching and the Dodgers score by timely hitting rather than waiting for the walk and home run like the Phillies.

Dodgers 4-2

ALDS

White Sox vs. Rays


The White Sox are old and their best pitcher, John Danks, isn't ready to pitch in the playoffs. Meanwhile, the Rays have a devastating pitching staff and the ChiSox catch Matt Garza on one of his good days.

Rays 3-1

Red Sox vs. Angels

Josh Beckett forgets his magic tricks and because no one can explain why the Angels and Twins keep winning.

Angels 3-2

ALCS

Angels vs. Rays


K-Rod's arm falls off and he blows a save, and the Rays young arms rack up the strikeouts as they keep the Angels offense at bay.

Rays 4-2

World Series

Dodgers vs. Rays


The Dodgers bullpen and veteran starting pitchers are the key while sports writers get the story they are looking for as the Dodger's "experience" trumps the youthful Rays.

Dodgers 4-3
