Playoff predictions

FYI, my predictions will blow you away. In 2006, I predicted the Fisher Cats would win 70 games and miss the playoffs. That’s exactly what happened. This year, I randomly predicted the Blue Jays would finish in fourth place and J.P. Ricciardi would chalk up the season to injuries and young players. Was I right?

In January 2007, I predicted the Monarchs would finally win a playoff series. They did. In the same column, it was written the 2007 Red Sox would “snap the Yankees’ string of nine straight division titles as Dice-K outpitches Kei Igawa.”

Enough said.

Now that I have dislocated my right shoulder while patting myself on the back, here are my predictions for the 2009 MLB postseason.

Phillies over the Rox, Cardinals over the Dodgers
Angels over the Red Sox, Yankees over the Twins
NLCS: Cardinals over the Phillies
ALCS: Yanks over the Angels
WS: Yanks over the Cards
