- Yankees over Tigers
- Rangers over Rays
- Phillies over Cardinals
- Brewers over Diamondbacks
No special analysis on these picks. I'll save those for the LCS's.
I will say this, I am looking forward to the Sabbathia-Verlander pitching match-up tonight. This is kind of like seeing Koufax go up against Marichal back in my formative years. Let's hope it lives up the the expectations.
Let's hope for a full five games for each series!
I agree with two of your picks. I would like to see the Rays and the Diamondbacks win their Series.
ReplyDeleteIn a short series, such as the these four series, all are a crap shot. I won't be surprised no matter which four teams survive and move on to two championship series. Having said that, my picks to move on are Yankees, Rays, Phillies and D'Backs.
ReplyDeleteJim, a friend on Facebook was razzing me on picking chalk in all four series. Since I spent about 45 seconds analyzing these picks, I fell back on an old axiom: " The fight is ot always to the strong, nor the race to the swift, but it's a good way to bet."
ReplyDeleteStrangly enough, on reflection, the series I feel least confident in is the Yanks- Tigers.. NY won 100+ this year, so I'm not sure why I feel this way. On the other hand, if the Yanks beat Verlander tonight, that could be the end for the Tigers.
