Postseason Log 2

The Good News:
Anyone who would like a taste of toasted Ray: Please line up outside Rangers Ballpark in Arlington, Texas on Saturday. Bring your own fork. The Yankees beat the Twins yet again, this time with help from Lance Berkman and Andy Pettitte. (Still don't understand why the media was freaking out with worry about him.) Tim Lincecum of the Giants threw a complete-game shutout against the Braves.

The Bad News:
None.

We would like to personally thank the MLB umpires for their cooperation in the fulfillment of our postseason predictions.

Postseason Log 1

The Good News:
The Yankees squeaked out a win last night, courtesy of Mark Teixeira. The Rays lost to the Rangers in decisive fashion.

The Bad News:
Yikes. So the Reds were no-hit by Roy Halladay of the Phillies. That doesn't look promising for our predictions, even if Orlando Cabrera was right and the ump was giving Halladay everything. Umps have given guys pitches before, and there has only been one no-hitter (perfect game, actually) in the playoffs before.

All in all, it was a satisfying day for us, both as Yankee fans and Ray haters. Oh, and postseason predictors.

Postseason Predictions

We have decided on our postseason predictions, and we are never wrong. Except when we're wrong.

The Yankees will beat the Twins in the first round - probably in four games. After all, the Twins are the Twins, and the Twins always lose in the first round.

Meanwhile, the Rays will lose to the Rangers in four games. The Rays are simply not good enough to beat the Rangers.

As far as the National League goes, the Giants are going to sweep the Braves, and the Reds are going to beat the Phillies in five games.

In the League Championship Series, the Yankees will beat the Rangers in six games, and the Giants will beat the Reds in five games.

Naturally, the Yankees will win the World Series, beating the Giants in six games. However great the Giants's pitching staff is, they are in the National League. West.

These predictions are brought to you courtesy of a pair of baseball fans who once stayed up until the wee hours of the morning to watch the Yankees get pounded by the Los Angelos Angels of Anaheim. As you can see, we're a very unbiased duo.
