Predictions in short series are silly.
Twins
so far, indifferent on Angels-Red Sox
Rockies
probably Dodgers, but I think the Cardinals have the best shot at beating an AL team

Rooting for:
Minnesota, Angels, Phillies, and Dodgers.
Don't see LA beating St. Louis, nor Minny over the Yanks. Who cares, and rooting for the Angels so Fox or whoever has the ALCS can have a heart attack over not getting Yanks/Sox.
Hmmm....a Dodger NL Championship will make 11 different teams in the last 12 seasons.

Dodgers, Angels, Rockies, and Twinkies.
In that order.

Yesterday's Dodgers game was absolutely fantastic! That pinch hitting drive @ the end sent this city into a frenzy!
...The last time I can remember such a dramatic finish for the Dodgers was
Kirk Gibson's home run back in 1988, which truly changed the Dodgers' confidence imho.

How many times did Minnesota give away last night's game? I lost count after four...
I think we had someone on this board last year who claimed that Carlos (Overrun) Gomez was a better player than Jose Reyes. I guess he should remain anonymous, out of charity.
Also, how does the LF ump blow that call on Mauer's ball? Replace em with robots, please.

Oh, Debbie Downer! Shouldn't you be out making your friends (or at least those who don't run away when they hear your voice) miserable with your pronouncements about obscure movies and extreme politics?

Refusing to nod along with the ubiquitous chorus in everything... you so brave, homes! Congrats on the Cards in 4 pick btw.

If there is a Yankees-Phils WS, I will likely skip it (as I did with Braves-Yankees in 2000). Go LA & LA!

You're right, I meant '99. (I'm a Mets fan. Subway Series? What Subway Series? TIMO PEREZ, ARRRGHHH....)

Well a LA sportscaster summed it best: "If anyone would have told me that the Angels would have had the # of errors that they did in the series I would have bet my house on that notion!"
