Re: Playoff predictions?

NLDS

Dodgers vs. Cubs

The Cubs offense is much too complete for the Dodgers to handle, meanwhile the Cubs pitching pitches around Manny to get to...pretty much no one.

Cubs 3-0

Brewers vs. Phillies

Defense, pitching & timely hitting....do either of these teams do enough? Phillies squeak by in a tight series.

Phillies 3-2

NLCS

Phillies vs. Cubs

Again I think the Cubs possess too much offense for the Phils but I think this is a slightly closer contest overall.

Cubs 4-2

ALDS

White Sox vs. Rays

My brain says Rays but my gut says not this year. White Sox win due to experience and momentum and because they will hit in this series.

White Sox 3-2

Red Sox vs. Angels

Red Sox have too much overall for the Angels, when you are not hitting you have to be patient and the Angels aren't patient enough.

Red Sox 3-1

ALCS

R Sox vs. W Sox

The White Sox just got taken too the limit bye the youthful Rays and father time catches up with them, along with Red Sox pitching.

Red Sox 4-1

World Series

Cubs vs. Red Sox

Wow, just a few short years ago who would have ever thought these 2 would be at this place at the same time. I still like the Cubs to take them too the limit but the Sox send them back to the proverbial drawing board to start their next 100 years.

Red Sox 4-3
