Division Series Record (2-2)
ALCS &
NLCS Predictions
ALCS
New York
Yankees Vs Houston Astros
I’m in complete shock that the Yankees were able to
make it this far, they faced a great team and dominated them without their best
player, Aaron Judge. He had an awful series, but they still dominated an
excellent pitching staff. With that dominance though, I think that ends in this
series. The Astros have been playing great baseball from start to finish and
dominated the Red Sox in the previous round. I don’t believe the Yankees have
enough fire power to keep up with the Astros. If it becomes an offensive shoot
out, the Astros have no issues scoring. If it becomes a pitchers’ duel, the
Astros have probably the best starting pitching in the league. If it becomes a
defensive battle, well shit I’m taking the Astros over everyone! The Yankees
don’t match up well at all in this one, they may be able to get a couple of big
wins in the series, but I don’t believe they can take the series. This looks to
be the Astros year!

NLCS
Chicago Cubs
Vs Los Angeles Dodgers
It seems like it’s been awhile since we’ve last seen
anything from the Dodgers because they were the only team to sweep through the
Division Round of the playoffs! While the rest is nice, I don’t believe they
want to face off against this red hot Cubs team. The Cubs look to be right back
on track and as strong as they were during last years’ playoff run! The Cubs
batting lineup hasn’t had any trouble scoring runs in the postseason and the
starting pitching has been good enough to get the job done. As we’ve seen so
far in the playoffs, starting pitching has been fairly mediocre all around, as
long as the bullpen can come in and stop the bleeding it doesn’t seem to matter
if your starting pitching is lights out like in seasons past. The Dodgers also
can score a ton of runs, so I’m expecting this to be a fun series to watch with
a ton of offense to keep you on the edge of your seat. The Dodgers have been notorious
chokers over the years in the playoffs, most notably when they dominate the
regular season. Until they can prove that they can win in the clutch I can’t
take them and right now the Cubs are on fire and look to be just getting
started. This should be a fun series to watch, but I think the Cubs will come
out on top because they know how to get the job done, unlike the Dodgers!
