MLB Playoff Predictions - LCS

Well, my original LDS predictions were laughable. Awful. Atrocious. I got all of them wrong, and in stupendous fashion.

In quick recap...

ALDS
New York Yankees vs Cleveland Indians
My Prediction: Yankees in 3
Reality: Indians in 4

Boston Red Sox vs Los Angeles Angels
My Prediction: Angels in 4
Reality: Red Sox in 3

NLDS
Arizona Diamondbacks vs Chicago Cubs
My Prediction: Cubs in 5
Reality: Diamondbacks in 3

Colorado Rockies vs Philadelphia Phillies
My Prediction: Phillies in 4
Reality: Rockies in 3

So yes, as you can see, it's a good thing I didn't go to Vegas.

Moving onto the League Championship Series, I know it's already Saturday and some games have already happened, but this is the first moment I've had to write this blog entry, and my original predictions were made and I have not let the outcomes of the first two NLCS games nor the first ALCS game affect my prediction.

ALCS
Boston Red Sox vs Cleveland Indians

Cleveland made an impressive showing against the Yankees, but Boston wiped the floor with Los Angeles through strong starting pitching (Beckett, Schilling) and their unstoppable offense. While Cleveland does have Sabathia and Carmona, their offense isn't nearly as potent as Boston's, and their bullpen isn't as strong.

My Prediction (maybe I get these right?): Boston in 5

NLCS
Colorado Rockies vs Arizona Diamondbacks

Colorado refuses to lose. Arizona is very good but they are beatable, as Colorado has already shown in the first two games, beating them twice in Phoenix already. I do expect Arizona to show up at some point and win some games, but ultimately this is the Rockies' destiny.

My Prediction: Colorado in 6

If it's Boston vs Colorado in the World Series, the edge goes to Boston. However, if Colorado manages to sweep Arizona in 4, then I really wonder. It'll be interesting to say the least.
