Atlanta won't be in the postseason. Just saying....
How far can the Cincinnati Reds go? I think they are a serious darkhorse team.
Reds...mmmm...sorry. Truth is guys that the Cincinnati RedStockings seem to beat up on all the poorer teams in the leage and just have a terrible record against the better ones. Love the team they just aint ready yet.
I am hoping beyond hope that the Giants do not make it. Even though they will be one of the weaker teams, with their dominate pitching in the playoffs, they could actually bring SF their very first WS title ever
One series looks like it's pretty set: Twins vs. Rays (unless the Rays make up the 2.5 game deficit to the Yankees).
I think that will be a GREAT series! :up

The WC winner cannot face the division winner from the same division...they would play the highest seed
So right now its
AL East
Twins
Rangers
WC
Unless the Rangers overtake the Twins in the records the Twins play the WC regardless if the Twins or the AL East leaser finishes in 1st...So barring a collapse by the Twins its
Twins vs WC
Rangers vs AL East winner
Twins want best record as they would host the 1st two rounds
I agree...even if its 3,4,5 since the NL has the "home field" in the WS
yep
but technically using the old system they would have it this year anyways
AL had it the odd years
NL the evens
Which is a very stupid rule. If a team has the best record within their league, they should play the team with the worst record within their league, period. They earned it by playing better than everyone else against the same teams within their league.pretty much
