Well my beginning of the year predictions (which I didn't blog until August) were way off. I had three of the four AL teams right, but Boston let me down. I only had Philadelphia correct in the NL. Sad. So here's my updated predictions for this years playoffs,
AL
Yankees over Detroit in Five. Verlander goes 1-1. Loses game five in NY.
Texas over Tampa Bay in three. I like Tampa's pitching, but hate their inconsistent bats.
Yankees over Texas in six. C.J. Wilson goes 2-0 and that's it.
NL
Philadelphia over St. Louis in four. St. Louis is hot, but the Philly pitching is crazy.
Arizona over Milwaukee in Five. Ian Kennedy is a beast and should win the Cy Young.
Philadelphia over Arizona in Five. Halladay and Lee available twice. Kennedy only once.
World Series
Philadelphia over Yankees in six. I honestly, sincerely believe that the pitching is going to be too much for the Yankees. They survive on power and are facing guys that just don't give up home runs. Plus, the short porch in right will be out of play the first two games. Look for Philly to jump all over them early.
World Series MVP. Shane Victorino - no idea why, just see him having a big series
