NL: Cincinnati over Washington in 6 games

World Series
Texas over Cincinnati in 5 games. Texas finally breaks through. This team has been too good for too long now to not be a World Champion.

What do you think?

See: Buffalo Bills

Braves over Cards
Orioles over Rangers

Braves over Nats in 4
Reds over Giants in 4
Orioles over Yanks in 5
Detroit over As in 5

Reds over Braves in 6
As over Orioles in 6

Reds over As in 6

I wouldn't be surprised if I get every pick wrong though

Double whammy- found out today that I have to go to a wake tomorrow night and will miss the NL wild card game

I love the Braves. I watch like 70% of the games every year. I check the box score and highlights and read articles for every game I didn't watch live. I've been rooting for Chipper for what seems like forever. I was crushed when the Cards knocked out the Braves last year and then went on to win the WS. Now I will miss the most important game for the Braves since their glory days, one in which they can avenge last years disaster of an ending, and a game that could be my favorite ballplayer of all times last one.

So mad I have to miss this :x. And that's not even focusing on them important part of tomorrow night :(.

I know the Angels play in a tougher division...yada, yada, yada....for money money the triple crown has to be special...not 1 player has done it in 45 years.

i understand both sides of the argument. i don't really care who wins the mvp.

but the triple crown is absolutely is special. it's been 45 years since someone accomplished that feat. i understand people love all the new age stats and stuff and some of them are very useful. but to me, baseball more than any other sport, is meant to be romanticized and to have it's history embraced. yastrzemski, mantle, williams, gehrig, fox, kein, hornsby, cobb (fucking ty cobb!) are the names you associate with this. so of course it's special, and to demean it is ridiculous and petty. i remember, as a kid, being excited over gary sheffield making a run for it back in '92 (i think that was the year).

so assuming he holds on, congrats to cabrera on a truly remarkable feat.

I have to agree with you there ... something special about the triple crown ... I think its only been accomplished 13 times and no one in 45 years.

no doubt.

Admittedly being a homer, but if Carp and Waino can bring it they have about as good a shot as any and probably a better shot than last year.

Those umps are going to be hunted down if the Braves lose.

I walked in the house to see that play. What an awful call. Has the game resumed?

perfectlefts14

So if Atlanta wins the protest, do they come back tomorrow and play from that point in the game with 1 out and bases loaded?

Yes it would be like the pine tar game with the yanks

Ledbetterman10

I just tuned it. What exactly happened? It seems like they had guys on 1st and 2nd and an infield fiy was called on a ball that fell between the left fielder and shortstop and Atlanta thinks it shouldn't have been called. Is that what happened?
