Hey all you baseball fans!
The start of October means one thing: Playoffs :D
I know many of you will be watching your favorite teams this October(who are so lucky that Seattle just missed the playoffs cuz if they did it would be over :D )
So now that the 8 playoff spots have been decided, let's have a little competition: Predict the playoffs 03
Here's how it works.
Put your winners for each of the 4 division series and put a number of games they will win in. Example: Mariners win in 4 games.
Then put your 2 winners of the League Championship series and finally your World Series winner.
For each Division Series winner picked correctly is 2 points, championship series 4 points and the world series winner 8 pts.
For each division series winner picked with the # of games correct gets 1 extra point, League championship series 2 extra points and World series 4 extra points. I will go first:
Division series:
Twins in 5, Red Sox in 4, Marlins in 4, Cubs in 5 (almost go Braves, may change before Tuesday.
LCS: (league championship series)
Twins in 7, Marlins in 6
World Series:
Twins in 7 :clap:
Now the Division series matchups are:
AL: Minnesota Twins vs. New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox vs. Oakland Athletics
NL: Chicago Cubs vs. Atlanta Braves, Florida Marlins vs. San Francisco Giants
Of course the 2 AL winners face each other and the 2 NL winners face each other.
First games are Tuesday so get those picks in before that. NO EDITS after the first pitch on Tuesday. The winner becomes the:
POKEGYM FANTASY BASEBALL CHAMPION FOR THE 2003 PLAYOFFS!
(and remember, Mariners 04 all the way. ;) )
EDIT: Forgot to mention, the Division Series (1st round) is a best of 5. The LCS and the World series are a best of 7 for those who didn't know.

Red Sox/Athletics - Red Sox in 4.
Cubs/Braves - Braves in 4.
Marlins/Giants - Giants in 5.

Yankees/Red Sox - Red Sox in 7.
Braves/Giants - Giants in 6.

Red Sox/Giants - Red Sox in 6.

but if I had any choice, I would OBVIOUSLY pick Tigers...GO TIGERS! ;)
If they can beat the twins 4 out of 5, why can't they be in the playoffs? ;)

Ok, I don't follow baseball, but these are my picks...

Twins/Yankees- Yanks in 5
Red Sox/A's-A's in 7
Cubs/Braves-Cubs in 6
Marlins/Giants-Marlins in 7

Yanks over A's in 6
Cubs over Marlins in 6

Yanks over Cubs in 4 for the World Series.
 
Whoops. Sorry guys, I forgot to mention that the Division Series (1st round) is only a best of 5. The LCS and the World Series are a best of 7.
Something Else and Captain Obvious please edit your Division Series picks to be out of a best of 5 since you have some picks in 6 or 7 in those series.
Remember, Division Series Best of 5
League championship series and World Series are best of 7
Sorry for the confusion. :)
 
Ugh,

Giants > Marlins in 3
Braves > Cubs in 5

Giants > Braves in 6

A's > Red Sox in 5
Yanks > Twins in 5

A's > Yanks in 6

Giants > A's in 5

Pidgeotto Trainer 3 pts :clap:
Captain Obviousx1 2 pts
Rand0m 0 pts
Something Else 0 pts (Lost World series runner-up)
ToysRUsKid 0 pts (Lost World series winner)
Atleast 1 series will end tomorrow, maybe up to 3.
 
Chicago in 5
Yanks in 5
Florida in 4 (already happened)
Red sox in 5

Chicago in 6
Red sox in 7

Grudge match: Lovable Losers!!!

Chicago in 7, in a 1-0 Prior gem, with Sammy Sosa scoring the only Cubs run on a 9th inning HR
 
I'm sorry Bullados but, it wouldn't really be fair to let you in now as the playoffs are well under way with even 1 series done. You can see how you would get an advantage by waiting until all the games are 3-4 games deep.
However, everyone feel free to post any predictions if you'd like for fun.
Baseball is exciting whether your playing or not! :clap:
 
Today the Yankees unfortunately beat the Twins in 4 and the Cubs won their first playoff series in 95 years by beating the Braves in 5.
The updated standings after 3 series
Captain Obviousx1 6pts
Pidgeotto Trainer 6 pts (Lost World champion)
RaNd0m 2 pts (Lost World Series runner-up)
SomethingElse 2 pts (Lost World Series runner-up)
ToysRUs Kid 2 pts (Lost World Champion)
Boston vs. Oakland to conclude tomorrow.

I won't make any predictions, but I really want Boston to break that curse.

Well they just won a thrilling game 5 against Oakland. For those who missed it:
Bot 9th, Sox up 4-3, bases loaded, 2 outs. Derek Lowe strikes out Terrance Long I think to send the Sox into the ALCS for an epic battle against the Evil Empire of the Yankees. :D
The updated standings:
Pidgeotto Trainer 8 pts :clap: (Lost World Champion)
Captain Obviousx1 6 pts
RaNd0m 5 pts (Lost World Series Runner-up)
SomethingElse 4 pts (Lost World Series Runner-up)
ToysRUs Kid 2 pts (Lost both World Series participants)
With ToysRUs Kid losing both World Series participants this is now a 4 person race.
NLCS starts tomorrow. Cubs vs. Marlins
ALCS start Wednesday. Yankees vs. Red Sox
Should be exciting :D

Anybody thinks baseball is boring should show them the Bosox/A's series. Many heartattacks on both coasts during those games.
 
Yea, I was one of those people with a near heart attack last night... ;) Anyway, go Red Sox! :thumb:
 
Even though I'm behind, I think I have the best shot to win...the Yanks are usually a lock, and the Cubs just look like they have it this year.
