Playoff Rankings
Detroit Tigers @ Kansas City Royals - AL Central Title Game
No Aaron Pitman, no Dushawn Davis could spell trouble for the Royals. Detroit finally looks to be clicking the past two months and is certainly the better team on paper.
Detroit wins
New York Mets @ Philadelphia Phillies - NL East Title Game
The Mets are riding a hot wave, but it comes against possibly the two worst teams in baseball at the moment. Philly owns the regular season title among the two, 11-9. The triple crown winner and co. might be too much for the Mets.
Philly wins
Kansas City Royals @ Baltimore Orioles - AL Wildcard Game
The Royals surprised many to make it this far, but the joy ride ends here.
Baltimore wins
Washington Nationals @ New York Mets - NL Wildcard Game
New York could opt to pitch Matt Belovsky on short rest, but the rookie Brian Levitt looks like the better bet. Washington will likely toss out one of their lefties, giving the Mets fits. It'll be a close game.
New York wins
Baltimore Orioles @ Toronto Blue Jays - AL Division Series
This matchup is probably best suited for the ALCS. Two good rotations against two good lineups. Good thing for Baltimore that Vogel is no longer Vogel (and hurt as well). Bad thing for Baltimore that their bullpen is on pins and needles.
Toronto in five
Detroit Tigers @ Texas Rangers - AL Division Series
This is another very evenly matched series. Both teams have some good pitchers and good hitters, but both have some depth issues.
Detroit in four
New York Mets @ Philadelphia Phillies - NL Division Series
Having to play a tiebraker plus a wildcard game will be tough on the Mets. But No Duguay helps the Mets. Audley helps the Phillies more.
Philly in four
Cincinnati Reds @ Colorado Rockies - NL Division Series
Home runs and more home runs for this series. Cincinnati has Peter Smith, but the Rockies have a deeper lineup.
Colorado in five
Detroit Tigers @ Toronto Blue Jays - AL Championship Series
Detroit pales in comparison to Toronto, but I think Detroit gives them more fits than necessary.
Toronto in six
Colorado Rockies @ Philadelphia Phillies - NL Championship Series
Same story as the AL Championship, different way of getting there.
Philly in four
Toronto Blue Jays vs Philadelphia Phillies - World Series
The top in AL vs the top in the NL. Vilareda vs Kamp. Audley vs Anketell. Repeat of '93?
Toronto in six
