Post-Season Predictions

Here are my post-season predictions:

ROUND ONE
Brewers beat the Phillies 3 games to 2
Cubs beat the Dodgers 3 games to 1
Red Sox beat the Angels 3 games to 0
Rays beat the White Sox 3 games to 2

ROUND TWO
Cubs beat the Brewers 4 games to 2
Rays beat the Red Sox 4 games to 3

WORLD SERIES
Cubs beat the Rays 4 games to 2

That's right, I'm predicting that the Cubs win the world series!

Use this as an open thread to discuss today's games.

Cubbies all the way!

Cubs 100% correct

Brew Crew beating the Phillies though? Umm… with that rotation and Sabathia’s playoff performance last year? Well I guess you can’t get them all right!

Last year

How about Sabathia’s performance in recent weeks?

Who's world is it? It's yours.

Gallardo

So how many innings can they get out of him today?

Not sure how the Red Sox will get by the Angels. Becketts health is the biggest question here.

Regardless, first game-first pitch is just a little over an hour away! Gotta love October baseball!!!!!

Post Season Predictions

John,
You’re Correct about the Cubs, but “HOLY COW” you missed on the Angels and Phillies.

The Phillies will take out the Brewers in 4 and lose to the Cubs in a hard-fought 7 game series.
the Angels will beat the Bosox, probably go 5, beat the Rays in 6 and THEN the Cubs win the Series- in 6 games over the Angels.

I've been right 99 years in a row

The Cubs will not win the World Series.

My nightmare: an all LA World Series. Please no!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe that John predicted the flubbies to win it all.

John, I always had a lot of respect for you and your baseball insight. You must’ve truly had a moment of temporary insanity.

I can’t think of any other reason for your psychotic prediction.
