Playoff Prediction Thread

[UMFan83]

There is still one spot to decide, but I think the Rays will beat whoever survives, so I can put my prediction out there now. Post yours now or wait until tonights game is decided.

 

NL:

Phillies over Brewers in 3

Cubs over Dodgers in 5

 

Cubs over Phillies in 7

 

AL:

Rays over White Sox/Twins in 4

Red Sox over Angels in 5

 

Red Sox over Rays in 7

 

WS:

Red Sox over Cubs in 6

 

Also, for the record, the Sox will beat the Twins tonight, although not technically a playoff

[jersey cubs fan]

Prior to the season I predicted Cubs/Mets NLCS, so I guess I'll just replace NY with PHI.

 

Cubs in 4, Phils in 5, Angels in 4, Rays in 5

 

Phils in 6, Angels in 6

 

Angels in 5

[rawaction]

My predictions:

 

NLDS

Cubs in 4

Brewers in 5 (one of the best 1st round series ever, Sabathia remains dominant and outduels Hamels in game 5)

 

ALDS

Rays in 4

Angels in 5

 

LCS

Cubs in 6 (Sabathia's dominance comes to an end as the Cubs light him up in Game 6)

Angels in 6

 

WS

Angels in 5 (emotional Brewers series letdown, Angels pitching is just too much)

[Little Slide Rooter]

It all starts this evening as the Minnsota Twins stun the Chicago White Sox to take the AL Central

 

NLDS

 

Cubs beat the Dodgers in 3.

Phillies beat the Brewers in 4

 

ALDS

 

Twins beat the Rays in 5

Red Sox beat the Angels in 4

 

NLCS

Cubs beat the Phillies in 5

Red Sox beat the Angels in 5

 

WS

Cubs beat the Red Sox in 5

[RedFlash]

I don't understand the love the Angels get. They are this yr's DBacks in that they were incredibly lucky, considering the Py record and real record are separated by 10 wins. Add in the fact that the Angels have lost 9 straight to the Red Sox in the playoffs, and I pretty sure the Angels won't even make the ALCS.

 

Cubs over Dodgers

Brewers over Phillies

 

DRays over Twins/White Sox

Sox over Angels

 

Cubs over Rays.

If I don't pick them this year, I can't ever. This is the one time I have actually really thought we could do it.

 

Cubs over the Red Sox in 6.

[UMFan83]

If I don't pick them this year, I can't ever. This is the one time I have actually really thought we could do it.

 

Cubs over the Red Sox in 6.

 

=D>

[Andy]

Cubs (who beat Philly in the NLCS) beat the Red Sox (who beat the Rays in the ALCS) in 5.

 

Chicago is a mob scene.

[Exile on Waveland]

Cubs in 4, Phillies in 5, Rays in 4, Red Sox in 5.

 

Cubs in 6, Rays in 7.

 

Rays in 6.

 

 

Also, I think the White Sox probably win tonight. I think the Cubs come out of the NL, but just don't quite believe they'll win the whole thing. No solid reason. Angels are overrated, but I'm torn on who to pick between the Red Sox and Rays.
