MLB Playoff Predictions

**Emperor Smeat** · 10-06-2010, 02:23 AM

American League
1) Twins over Yankees.
New stadium might be the wildcard to the whole series and eventually Twins going to win a series over the Yankees.
2)Rays over Rangers.
Rays might have been slumping to the playoffs but very dangerous with base stealing and getting hits to create runs.

National League
1) Phillies over Reds.
Phillies too powerful right now although very rarely does the #1 seed in the NL make it to the WS last few years.
2) Giants over Braves.
Braves got very lucky to get the wild card since the slumped badly in the final month.

ALCS - NLCS
1) Rays over Twins.
This probably ends up as the more entertaining and longer series than the NLCS due to both teams having good pitching and good hitting.
2) Phillies over Giants.
Phillies too strong in pitching while the cold weather might play a bigger factor in this series compared to the ALCS

World Series
1) Phillies over Rays.
Rays have the advantge in base stealing and hitting while Phillies have the advantage in pitching. Pitching always triumphs hitting so Phillies win but in a 6-7 game series.
