It's that time of year again. The master needs to come out of hiding and make his picks.
With the risk of being labeled a homer, I must say that I really do like my Tigers chances against the Yankees. New York this year hasn't really impressed as much as they usually do. Are we really gonna fear a .240 hitter that used to play for us? Verlander is the best pitcher in baseball right now and Fister's ground-ball style of pitching should minimize the garbage home runs that Granderson and Co. get (not to mention he's already on a tear). Tigers in 3
Rangers vs. Rays again? With Cliff Lee gone and the way the Rays have been looking, it's only natural to go with Tampa on this one. Don't see it. Rangers in 5
Wow, can't believe Atlanta blew a 9-game lead for the wild card. The good news for St. Louis is that they found a way to get into the postseason despite the fact that the Brewers couldn't stop losing. The bad news is that they have to face the Phillies and their stacked rotation of Lee, Halladay, and Hamels. Phillies in 4
The D-backs and Brewers seemed to both spring into first place out of nowhere. Other than that, there isn't much to be said about this one. I'll go on a hunch. D-backs in 5
Oh yeah, almost forget
My preseason Super Bowl pick was never posted. I went with the Ravens on this one. Joe Flacco went into the season appearing to have a chip on his shoulder. They just had that feel of a charmed team.
