2015 Major League Baseball Postseason

What are your predictions?

American League:


National League:


It's hard to bet against Toronto going all the way now that Troy Tulowitzki is back in the lineup. And also knowing Mark Buehrle will be nowhere near any Blue Jays' postseason roster.

For the National League, it's apparently a rule that only the Cardinals or Giants can win the NL pennant post-2009 so I'm predicting a Toronto/St. Louis World Series.

I'm with you in the predictions. As much as I love the Yankees, they shouldn't even have a team on the field. Team is bad and their farm system is worse. Pirates always have good, young players but just can't afford to keep them.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I don't see the Yankees making it past tonight's game either. Dallas Keuchel owns them this year while Tanaka I believe has an ERA of over 10.00 in his one start against the Astros.

Looking at those stats, if there was ever a time when I'd love to hear Yankees radio announcer John Sterling say, "You can't predict baseball." it would be tonight.

For tonight's wild card game you actually can predict baseball.

It turned out exactly how I thought it would--Tanaka would give a respectable performance, maybe allow a first inning home run and the Yankees' tired bullpen would give up additional runs, but Dallas Keuchel would pitch a shutout for Houston. Yankees one and done in the playoffs this year.

Astros also only threw Keuchel 6 innings. He'll be ready by game 2 vs the Royals. I have Cole beating the Cubs tonight.

Astros/Royals Game 2 is Friday which would only be two days rest.

I predict the Cubs will win tonight because Back to the Future Part II said they will win the World Series this year.
