Daily Debate: What Are Your Major League Baseball Playoff Predictions?
- Updated: September 30, 2011
Off of the most exciting day in the history of regular season Major League Baseball history, the playoffs begin today with two American League Divisional Series games, with the Tampa Bay Rays, fresh off of overcoming a nine-game, September deficit to the Boston Red Sox and a 7-0,eighth inning deficit Wednesday, head to Arlington to face the Texas Rangers. At 8:37pm in the Bronx, the Detroit Tigers will face the New York Yankees. Tomorrow at 2:07pm, the Arizona Diamondbacks will face the Milwaukee Brewers, and in the final series to begin, the Philadelphia Phillies, the favorite to win it all this season, will host the St. Louis Cardinals, who overcame a 8.5 game deficit to the Atlanta Braves to win the National League Wild Card. Who will win each series? Voice your opinion on the Razz and Jazz Sports Blog Daily Debate.

Being a Met fan I have lost track of Baseball for the last month. I am still in shock over Boston & Atlanta (originally the Boston Braves spooky!) So I now have to consider Tampa & The Lou. Hmmmm, well I hate everything out of Arizona & Love the Brew Crew so go Brewers, actually that’s my fav pick in the NL. St. lou vs Philly. When I was Yankee fan I liked the Phils, but as a Met fan they’re supposed to be hated. Philly should win. Yank Tigers should bee a brawl. very hard to root for Yanks like an ex wife!! I hate most things out of TEXAS so go Tampa!! overall I’d like to see a Milwaukee vs Detroit World Series. …. Rooting for the Yankees is like rooting for the slavemasters team!

Like Alexis, as a Mets fan, I’ve been out of the loop for a while now, but my predictions are:
Tigers over Yankees 3-2
Phillies over Cards 3-1
Rays over Rangers 3-0
Brewers over Diamondbacks 3-2
I can’t remember is this second round is still best of 5 or 7
Phllies over Tigers
Rays over Brewers
Sadly I have the Phillies winning the whole damn thing.

No one got all four series correct. 3-1 was the best record by two I believe
