Now that we all know the participants finally, how do you guys think the MLB postseason will play out?

Here are my picks:

AL

Division Series

Twins over Yanks in 5
Rangers over Rays in 4

ALCS

Rangers over Twins in 6

NL

Division Series

Phils over Reds in 3
Giants over Braves in 5

NLCS

Phils over Giants in 6

World Series

Phils over Rangers in 7

What I think...

ALDS
Yanks over Twins in 4
Rays over Rangers in 4

ALCS
Rays over Yanks in 6

NLDS
Phils over Reds in 4
Giants over Braves in 3

NLCS
Giants over Phils in 7

World Series
Giants over Rays in 6

But I hope, the ALCS will be Twins/Rays, NLCS Phils/Braves, then either the Twins or Braves win it. I think it would be awesome to see the small market Twins win it, or Bobby Cox go out on top.

I think the phils are the team to beat. They will be tough with their three man rotation. I dont want to jinx anything so thats the only thing im predicting.

I am a Yankee fan but im not going to lie to myself lol

Hey I gave us 1 game lol

Seriously though our pitching has been horrible. With Subpar pitching you cannot last through the playoffs.
Not to mention our hitting goes either way on any given day. One day we hit a ton the next we hit nothing.

The Twins don't exactly have a formidable 1-2-3 punch either. After Liriano (who was a modest 12-10 this year), they have Pavano and then some other guy I never heard of. Pitching might be a pretty even matchup.

Re: MLB Playoff Predictions

Phillies over Reds in 4.
Giants over Braves in 4.

Yankees over Twins in 5.
Rangers over Rays in 5.

Phillies over Giants in 6.
Yankees over Rangers in 5.

And Phillies exact revenge by beating the Yankees in a rematch of last year's "I don't know who to root for because I can't stand both teams" World Series.

The only two teams I really like in this entire post-season (Rangers and Rays) have to play each other in Round 1... and with the Rays limping into the playoffs and facing a polished Cliff Lee in TB for game 1, I don't give them too much of a chance to advance. Supposing they lose game 1 and win game 2, I don't see them taking 2 out of 3 in Texas.

I agree, plus the Twins pitching has been getting roughed up the last couple of weeks. With AJ off the ALDS roster, the Yanks will win in 4.

I think it will be the Yanks and Phils again, going 7 games. Not sure who to pick yet.

Better yet, does anyone here who has picked the Phillies to "NOT GET TO THE WORLD SERIES" wish to change their prediction?

I am not a Phillies fan by any stretch of the imagination, but I know a juggernaut when I see one.
