Alright, I did pretty poorly on my first round predictions (one out of four) and none of the series went the way I wanted them to :crying:

So here are my new predictions:

Phillies over Giants

Rangers over Yankees

Phillies over Rangers

It just so happens that what I think will happen, in this case, is what I hope does happen.

Love playoff baseball!

I had no idea the Rangers had never won a playoff series. Fuck me. They are going to get shitted on. the Pin Stripes will also win it all and repeat.
 
Looking forward to the Lincecum and Halladay match up.

Can someone please stop the Yankees from coming back? They came back on the Rays several times and now they come back on the Rangers after being down 0-5. Man...I hate the Yankees!
 
The Royals will be shopping Zack Greinke. If he goes to the NL he'd instantly become one of the best pitchers in the league along side Halladay and Lincecum.

Isn't he already one of the best in the AL?

I meant the NL.

The Cubs have taken off the interim tag on Mike Quade and have named him their manager. I think this is the right move by the Cubs. I was impressed by what he did with this club after Pinella left and I'm rooting for him.
 
I've had a big smile on my face for the past 2 nights watching the Yankees suffer. I give the early empty seats 3 thumbs up as well!
 
I meant the NL.

I know. The AL is a superior offensive league to the NL, ergo, wouldn't him already being elite in the AL guarantee him being the same in the NL?

That's my boy. I'm still upset we gave him away. To save a couple dollars.

Never before have I seen so many people pumped about a guy that OPS'd .735.
 
Wow the Texas Rangers a team at the start of the season was bankrupt is now in the World Series. I think that they will take the Series in 7.
 
my buddy who calls the Rangers the Senators ver 2 is quite happy right now
it's a nice way for cody ross to make some extra money because now teams will think he is a clutch playoff player

I think MLB needs to develop a hologram version of the strike zone thingy that ESPN uses to check balls/strikes and beam it over the plate before every pitch. It's getting embarrassing to see how wrong Umps today are when they call balls and strikes. :facepalm: Embrace technology MLB...

Back in our grand grand pappy's days...when MLB was created, Umps had to call ball/strikes based off of pitches that were..what, 30mph max? The ball is coming too fast today for the ump to know for sure what is a ball and what's a strike. I laugh when a batter complains about balls/strikes (when he takes a pitch) because he has a different view of the pitch than the ump does. Although the Ump is a bit old, eyesight isn't as strong as a 25 yr batter's either :dunno:

Embrace the halogram strike zone MLB....:thumbsup:
