My predictions:

AL:

Yankees over Tigers in 3.

Oakland over Twins in 5.

Yankees over Oakland in 6.

NL:

Dodgers over Mets in 4.

Padres over Cardinals in 3.

Dodgers over Padres in 7.

World Series:

Yankees over Dodgers in 6.

Of course I'm rooting for the Dodgers and Oakland to win the title, but wouldn't mind the Twins or Padres to win it.
 
The World Series will be between the Dodgers and Twins.
 
AL:

Yankees over Tigers in 3

Twins over Oakland in 4

Yankees over Twins in 5.

NL:

Mets over Dodgers in 5

Padres over Cardinals in 4

Mets over Padres in 6

The Mets won't make the World Series they don't have enough of pitching.
 
My predictions are waiting to be posted.

No matter what happens, I am a Twins fan this October for pretty obvious reasons. Go Luis and Red!

AL:
yankees over tigers in 3

twins over a's in 5

yankees over twins in 7

NL:
mets over dodgers in 5

padres over cards in 4

padres over mets in 5

WORLD SERIES
YANKEES OVER PADRES IN 5

MVP:A-ROD
 
ALDS
Tigers over the Yankees in 4, I don't know why i'm going against the Yankees but somebody has to.
A's over Twins in 5, I think this will be a great series. The only thing that would've made it better IMO is Rich Harden 100% healthy and stretched out going against a healthy Liriano in game 2.

ALCS
A's over Tigers in 6,

NLDS
Mets over Dodgers in 4, this is a tough draw and if anyone wants to see another rule that should be abolished it's that if the WC team comes from a division they should be allowed to play a division rival in the DS.

San Diego over St. Louis in 5, I'm tempted to take the Cardinals but I think the Padres pitching pulls through

NLCS
Mets over Padres in 5, I think the Mets are the best team in the NL and will represent them in the WS.

World Series
A's over Mets in 7, I think the A's bust through. Now all these could be wrong but who cares. Like last year the only person that I saw predict the White Sox to beat the Red Sox in the national media was Boston Gammons. If the WS does end up being the A's vs Mets or any WC team vs the Yankees I gurantee that people complain that the games start too late and that's the reason ratings are down, but I don't care i'll watch anyways.
 
I think the Yanks will win it all. Who is the sacraficial lamb from the NL is, who knows.

I will say this, I think AROD will have one moment in this postseason. A big hit. A game-winning hit of some sort. And I think that might make NY a better place for him in the future. He's hitting 6th in the lineup, that helps as well. All he needs is one moment to pretty much shut everyone up.

if he doesn't get that moment, and struggles again, do you think he gets traded in the offseason?
