2012 Playoffs Prediction Thread

[aryzner]

Do we usually have these? I can't remember but I seem to think we have before.

Here's my prediction:

Wild Card Playoff Game
AL: Orioles over Rangers
NL: Braves over Cardinals

ALDS
Orioles over Yankees
Athletics over Tigers

NLDS
Nationals over Braves
Reds over Giants

ALCS
Athletics over Orioles

NLCS
Reds over Nationals

World Series
Reds over Athletics

Cincinnati Reds - 2012 World Series Champions.


Call me crazy but this is how I see it happening. It won't happen this way because baseball is impossible to predict but it's fun trying!

With apologies to the OP if I didn't jump thru the hoops, but I hope Oakland paddles those Detroit kittens butts and rides the wave of momentum and ends up winning it all from either Washington or SF. Would bring back memories of Hunter, Jackson, Rudi, Fingers, Blue and so on. Plus Oakland seems to be the habitual underdog.
