Playoff Predictions

American League:

Rays defeat Rangers, 3 games to 1 - No mystery here. The better team wins.

Yankees defeat Twins, 3 games to 0 - A Minnesota enigma: how can a team that's so good in the regular season be so bad in the playoffs?

National League:

Reds defeat Phillies, 3 games to 2 - Against all odds, the cinderella story continues.

Giants defeat Braves, 3 games to 1 - Superior pitching prevails.

ALCS: Rays defeat Yankees, 4 games to 2 - The Yankees (now 3-man) rotation has too many issues. Unfortunately, this means more games will be played at the eye-sore that is Tropicana Field.

NLCS: Reds defeat Giants, 4 games to 3 - Bold, I know. But the Reds have Joey Votto.

World Series: Rays defeat Reds, 4 games to 2 - At which point Al Gore immediately demands a recount. If it wasn't for Disney World, Florida would be the worst state in America.
