Some MLB (Cue Jim Mora Voice) Playoffs!! Playoffs??? You Talking About Playoffs?? Predictions

Baseball Playoffs have moved to the LCS's, as in League Championship Series. I decided to celebrate by getting together a nifty little round table, full of all the stars that make this blog go round,  to make some predictions.

Without further adieu, I give you "Gary's All Star Round Table, MLB Predictions Edition!!!"

Gary Nickel:

NLCS - It's gots to be the Phils right? So I am taking Uncle Phil over the Giant Gonazalezes, in 4.

                         VS

MVP award will go to my boy Ryan Howard.

ALCS - I'm taking the Walker Texas Rangers over the Evil Emperors in 6.

                                VS
                                                




MVP award will go to my boy Vlade the Impaler.

World Series - I like the Uncle Phils in 6, and I hate Chuck Norris, he couldn't even carry Steven Seagal's jock strap.

MVP - Doc Brown.

Ryan Mazzei: AKA Blogatron, AKA The Maestro of Bloganomics!

Dr. No vs. The Freak - If Baseball had negative numbers than I'd go that route.  Goose-eggs would litter the board one would predict, but not I.  Runs will be scored and scored early, then come to an end when these two settle in.

Look for Halladay to go the distance and Timmy a solid 7 1/3.  3-2 after 4, then no score until the Phillies score two off the temp set up man Ramon Ramirez to give Ramirez his 2nd loss.

Brian Wilson won't be used.  Look for 11 K from The Freak and 1 per inning from Dr.No.  Halladay will give up an early inning Jack to Pablo Sandoval (likely with 1 out and 1 on in the 2nd).  So the game of the decade will be one for the ages (if you like doubling up game descriptions).

As for my predictions in general.

Phillies in 6. Rangers in 7.  Phillies in 5, honorable mention to a no decision battle between Halladay and Cliff Lee, with the Phillies taking the game.

MVP - Roy Halladay - 4 appearances, 3 wins, 1 No hitter - 1 Legend is confirmed.

Jason Mazzei:: AKA The Prime Minister Of Blogatronics!

AL: Rangers vs Yanks.

Rangers will be in tough.  Cliff Lee isn't starting until game 3 and will only pitch one other game as he has never pitched on 3 days rest.  The Yanks have a stacked staff, a stacked line-up and a stacked bullpen.  Baseball isn't fair.

AJ Burnett can start game 4 and pitch from the pen.  CC looks good, Hughes is a stud and Petitte looks revived.  But cheering for the Yanks is like hoping Donald Trump makes more money, Danny Almonte pitches a perfect game in Little League at age 23, or Mainway Mazda wins another CUC hockey league title.  You are a douche bag if you cheer for any of them.

So Andy P will get lit up and finally retire, CC will choke on his cheeseburger, Cliff Lee will dominate Game 3 and AJ will serve up 2 jacks to Ian Kinsler.  Ron Washington will win by stealing at will off Posada.

Rangers in 6.  Ian Kinsler NLCS MVP.

Look for the Blog assistant to break a few Rhino bats after Cliff Lee signs with the Yanks for 126 mill for 6 years in December.

NL: Phillies vs Giants

Game 1 Halladay v Lincecum
Game 2 Hamels v Sanchez
Game 3 Oswalt v Cain

This could be the best pitching match ups in recent memory.  The Phillies only have 10 pitchers on their 25 man roster.  They need their starters to bring it.  They will.

The Giants have such a good staff and bullpen, they have the highest paid cheerleader in Barry Zito (who looks alot like the Maestro of Bloganomics) sitting on the bench and not on the active roster.

The difference here is the offense.  The Giants simply can't match up with Howard, Werth, Victorino, Utley, Rollins etc.

Phillies in 5.  NLCS Co-MVP's Roy Halladay with 2 wins and an ERA of .87 and Jayson Werth playing for a big contract.


World Series.  Phillies over Rangers

Roy gets his ring, another MVP and gives a shout out to T.O., Gary Nickel and the rest of the Blue Jay super fans for their support.


Scott Anderson from Scott's Sexy Picks of the Week:

AL winner: Texas in 7 (Kinsler)
NL winner: Philly in 5 (Utley)

WS: Philly in 5 (Doc)

Just Like Scott in the bedroom, short and sweet.

Gerald Bauman from Newstalk Radio Fame:

National League:

Philadelphia in 5 games

MVP: Jayson Werth

American League:

Texas in 7 games

MVP: Micheal Young

He is on the record, let's see how everyone does.
