I would love to see that too.

Won't happen, there is the DH and Mookie Betts is from Red Sox and did well with DH and won title in 2018, and Corey Seager is doing so well. Dodgers win Title just like LeBron will sweep the Heat

Dodgers are the Dodgers and will Dodger it up and probably choke like usual.

Astros were found cheating in the World Series, so Dodgers deserved to win. That's why Astros folded so fast against Nationals, they couldn't cheat. Altuve was the cheater, he hit 400 and since then he is hitting 260.

Cory Seager plus Mookie Betts is the same as LeBron and AD. That's the difference now and then😆😆😆

We doing predictions yet? Because I have a couple of takes.

WC
Twins win 2-1 over Astros
Athletics win 2-1 over White Sox
Rays win 2-0 against Blue Jays
Indians win 2-1 against Yankees
Reds win 2-1 against Braves (Result depends heavily on Game 1, if Bauer wins against Fried, it’ll be 2-0 Reds.)
Cubs win 2-0 against Marlins
Padres win 2-0 against Cardinals
Dodgers win 2-0 against Brewers

DS
Rays win 3-2 against Indians
Twins win 3-1 against Athletics
Padres win 3-2 against Dodgers
Cubs win 3-1 against Reds

CS
Twins win 4-2 against Rays
Padres win 4-2 against Cubs

WS
Padres win 4-1 against Twins

I have a feeling that the Indians pitching will smother the strikeout heavy Yankees, and the Padres will clutch it out against the choke-heavy Dodgers. No Yankees-Dodgers series. Nobody suffers. Personally hoping for the Marlins to shock everyone.

You sure?

Although I will accept, the Astros are owned by ByteDance partially (15%) since 2017. That’s hopefully a coincidence.

The Braves win 1-0 on a walkoff hit by Freddie Freeman in the bottom of the 13th!  What a game!

Brewers won't go beyond the first round but when the Cubs blow it fast when they've been talking trash all summer i will be glorious.

[Sprouts Farmers Market ✘]

Thrilled to have defeated the Cleveland Baseball Team really proving our offense's cajones (though I think the wind helped on one or two homeruns this week). But the way our pitching staff handled a below average offense with a single dangerous hitter in the lineup is pretty pathetic and definitely leaves me concerned for the Tampa Bay series where we should be a sizeable underdog. I still don't think Tampa's lineup is particularly good, but the Yankees have a good way of making average hitters look like worldbeaters. Naturally, Ji-Man Choi and Kevin Kiermaier will probably hit four or five out of Petco Park

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

The Cubs will win the next game

[JGibson]

My Cardinals won 7-4 over the Padres. Win later today, and a trip to the NLDS awaits us.

Everyone says the Dodgers choke, they showed no weakness in beating Brewers whom never will win a title

Neither will.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

I underestimated Mookie Betts, but he won a World Series with Red Sox, but who cares, Lakers will win the title this yr😃😃😃

You're acting like the Brewers were supposed to put up a good fight? Actually pretty sad of the Dodgers they only beat them by 2...

[RC (a la Frémont)]

I honestly don’t know if i could’ve been more wrong with my predictions oops.

As someone from Chicago, I do remember the slide and mascot, Brewers are like the Cubs, they hit homers in front of fans and Astros with the train. Fans are important part to the game for teams to win, though

[BaldEagle1991]

Curious if the Astros are psychologically hurt this season and somehow are already recovering in the postseason?

Also any chances of the Dodgers choking?

We'll have to wait 'til Game 7 of the Dodgers/Marlins NLCS to find out

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

I told ya Mookie Betts is awesome, he lead Dodgers to a 3/0 shutout of the Brewers. Cory Seager and Mookie Betts is like LeBron and AD on same team,😆😆😆

Dread it. Run from it. Postseason fish magic arrives all the same, & now it's here.

Or should I say, the Marlins are.

As a Chicagoan, the Cubs are nothing without their roof top fans, they are gonna have to prove themselves outside the Cubbie, Marlins are gonna have to win 4 games, not 2, in the next round
