MLB Predictions, Championship Series edition
Written by Bush Rod   
Tuesday, 13 October 2009 16:44

OK, I didn't do too badly in the Division Series round. The only team I didn't have advancing was the Dodgers, and if Matt Holliday catches that ball, we have a completely different series. So let's move on to the NLCS and ALCS.

NLCS
Phillies (defeated Rockies, 3-1) vs. Dodgers (defeated Cardinals, 3-0)
Analysis: I'm too lazy to actually do some research and figure out when Cliff Lee will be able to pitch again, but I dislike the fact that he won't be able to go in Game One. The Phillies still have the deeper rotation, but that didn't seem to bother the Dodgers at all in the first round against a pair of Cy Young-esque pitchers. I think the genius of Joe Torre has to be factored into this series. He realized his starting pitching wouldn't match up to St. Louis', so he went to the bullpen at the first sign of trouble. Philadelphia's lineup is the tiniest bit better, but both are good. What does all this mean? I have no idea what's going to happen. With that being said...

Prediction: Dodgers in six.

ALCS
Yankees (defeated Twins, 3-0) vs. Angels (defeated Red Sox, 3-0)
Analysis: The Yanks caught a break by playing an emotionally depleted Twins team in Game One, cruising to a win. Then, Joe Nathan blew a save in Game Two and the series was over. Well, that's not going to happen in this one. C.C. is going to get shelled by the Angels, and they are going to win game one. After that, Anaheim's superior pitching depth will take over. No doubt about this in my mind.
Prediction: Angels in six.
