But they just got swept by the A's.

It stretches back farther than the sweep... I personally don't feel like they have enough momentum, especially when they're now in the play-in game and all.

Definitely

Poor Cards, they're the only team with no votes.

The Cardinals will win. They're riding in to Atlanta with most of them having been with the squad of last year, the team that won the Series. I know Chipper deserves better than to be put out in one game, but the Cards aren't gonna lose.

And I just voted Cards.

I wouldn't be sure, I don't think that the Cards will win. They might knock the Braves out but the Nats will put em down for sure.

Lohswright vs. Medlen will be a very good pitchers' duel.

I think whoever wins this game will also win the NLDS, for what it's worth.

Against the Nats. They are beast.

Well, you know, except Pujols

PPJ: Lohswright? Is that a cross between Lohse and Wainwright?

The Rangers are the best team out there, but have no momentum whatsoever. On the other hand, the Athletics have all the momentum.

I think Nationals over A's in 6.

umm, okay?

I still stand by my prediction.



Yes. Yes it is.

Ah well, at least Chipper won in a memorable world series, being the year after the strike. 1995 was also the year Ken Griffey Jr. and the Mariners beat Buck Showalter and Don Mattingly and the yanks

A little late, but I decided I'll be copying PPJ's format from the Jacked for the Posteason thread:

Ideally:

NL

Play-In Game
Braves defeat Cardinals 6-2

NLDS
Braves defeat Nationals 3-1
Reds defeat Giants 3-2

NLCS
Braves defeat Reds 4-3

AL
Play-In Game
Orioles defeat Rangers 547146-0

ALDS
Orioles defeat Yankees 3-0
Tigers defeat A's 3-2 (Games 3 and 4 are in Oakland, and I want to be there for the clincher )

ALCS
Tigers defeat Orioles 4-0

WS
Tigers defeat Braves 4-0

But realistically:

NL
Play-In Game
Braves defeat Cardinals 2-1

NLDS
Braves defeat Nationals 3-1
Giants defeat Reds 3-2

NLCS
Giants defeat Braves 4-2

AL
Play-In Game
Rangers defeat Orioles 7-4

ALDS
Yankees defeat Rangers 3-1
Tigers defeat A's 3-2 (The Tigers are on a pretty nice hot streak as well... since September 10th, we're 15-7, while the A's went 14-8 in that time span)

ALCS
Tigers defeat Yankees 4-3 (We tend to match up well against the Bronx Bombers in the postseason, but this still may be me being optimistic)

WS
Giants defeat Tigers 4-2

This is more so what I want to happen than anything

Braves>Cardinals

Braves>Nationals
Reds>Giants

Braves>Reds

---------------------------

Rangers>Orioles

Rangers>Yankees
Athletics>>>>>>Tigers

Athletics>Rangers

---------------------------

Braves>Athletics in 6

NL
Play-In Game
Cardinals defeat Braves 3-2

NLDS
Cardinals defeat Nationals 3-2
Giants defeat Reds 3-2

NLCS
Cardinals defeat Giants 4-2

AL
Play-In Game
Orioles defeat Rangers 5-3

ALDS
Orioles defeat Yankees 3-1
Tigers defeat A's 3-0

ALCS
Tigers defeat Orioles 4-3

WS
Cardinals defeat Tigers 4-2

Easy as that.

What does that even mean?
