Re: Playoff predictions?

NLDS

Dodgers vs. Cubs


The Cubs will find a way to lose, they always do, its pretty simple. Dempster is a solid pitcher and I kick myself everytime I hear the story about how he wanted to stay with the Reds because he felt he owed them something and they wouldn't sign them. He'll be the only bright spot in this series for the Cubs.

The first hundred down, let the second hundred begin now.

Dodgers 3-1

Brewers vs. Phillies

Lot of Brewer love flying around and with CC on the hill its no surprise. Problem is the Phils have Brad Lidge, Ryan Howard, Jimmy Rollins, and some dude named Utley who is maybe the best player in baseball.

Phils 3-1

NLCS

Phils vs. Dodgers


Manny is a comet flying across the Hollywood sky. He and Torre are enough to get it done.

Dodgers 4-2

ALDS

White Sox vs. Rays


Dewayne Wise is in the Sox lineup. I think that says enough for me. I will be rooting like a fan for Junior Griffey, but he won't get his ring this season either.

Rays 3-1

Red Sox vs. Angels

The Angels are an enigma perhaps, some say the best, some among the weakest. All I know is they've got John Lackey, K-Rod, and Texieria.

I also like Halos.

Angels 3-0

ALCS

Angels vs. Rays


You coulda had Boston and Chicago, major markets. Instead you get Anaheim and Tampa.

Rays 4-2

World Series

Dodgers vs. Rays


Cinderella had to be home before midnight, and this series will linger on well into the night. Still the experience the Dodgers have will rule the day.

Dodgers 4-3
