Last week in a half... who do you have?

AL West: Angels
AL Central: Indians
AL East: Yankees
AL Wild Card: Red Sox

West and Central are given, the only toss-up is NY/BOS.... I think Yanks have enough to overcome Red Sox. Gagne needs to stop throwing up on himself and Manny needs to show up if Red Sox want to go into October with the AL East title.

NL West: Padres
NL Central: Cubs
NL East: Mets
AL Wild Card: Diamondbacks

It's all pretty much a toss-up, but I think the Padres can pass the D-Backs with the pitching, I think the Brewers will flop and Soriano will get hot at the right time for the Cubs, I think the Mets will overcome there struggles and the Phillies won't have enough pitching for the next week and I think the Diamondbacks can hang on enough to get the Wild Card.

AL Championship: Yankees/Red Sox

Just good dramatic stuff.

NL Championship: Mets/Cubs

I guess... depending on who plays who in the division series... I half way think the Padres could make it if they had a little more offense... they'd be my second choice to go in.

World Series: Yankees/Cubs

Bo Sox raise another banner and I will be there for the Parade!! I really don't want to play the Indians right now.. I don't the loveable loosers can win the NL so i gove it to the Mets by default...Yes we are only a game and a half but I will be here for the rest of the way!!!Since I was here in May!! Go Sox

The Indians winning in 5....the Indians are currently playing the best baseball...and the Red Sox have been playing like crap...and plus gmtm runs his mouth too much...which causes the sox to lose (I just hope that isn't the case)

[Fumblerooskies]

The way the mets are playin right now, the Phillies/Braves series next week could end up being for the division title

[ALUmnus]

I guess no one's counting on a big run from the Tigers. That's okay, I'm not either.

[flameshaw]

Angels, nothing more needs to be said.

No the Braves arent going to catch BOTH the Mets and the Phils.

The Phils arent playing the Mets(I dont think anymore) which would mean the Mets have less guarenteed losses, and the Phils WILL spank the Braves. They are playing hot right now and wouldnt be suprised if they pass the Mets, their pitching is horrible.

[Knucklehead]

Braves aren't in the equation.

[Ed Dantes]

Just remember this before you write off the Mets -- the 2006 Cardinals stumbled into the playoffs, too.

[01LUGrad]

Nice to see the Cubs getting some love from some of you guys.

AL

West- LA
Wild Card- Boston

NL

World Series- Please, Lord, let this be the year. I'm a 4th generation Cubs fan and we have suffered enough!

[thesportscritic]

Braves aren't in the equation.

i think he was referring to the phillies on how they do against the braves in the series to overtake the mets.

[Schfourteenteen]

METS WIN!!! It feels like its the first time they kept a lead in a month!!!

[01LUGrad]

Cubs' magic number is now 4. They have the largest lead in any National League division (3.5 games).

Thanks again to the Braves! We couldn't have done it without you!

[Purple Haize]

CUBS If you have a problem with that I will punch you in the nose!! They will win because I was there with my Super Hot wife in Left Center field earlier this summer and said a prayer to the little baby Jesus in the manger all cute and cuddly AND the Great Big Grown Up Jesus with the Wings swooping down!! So there!b

The Cubs will NOT trade for ARod. No need for another curse. The goat sucks enough.

Are you kidding me? What baseball have you been watching? A-Rod is the MVP, with no one even close. The Cubs would love to have him and his numbers.

My Rockies are still hanging in there baby!

[thepostman]

A-Rod.....hahahahaha

[Knucklehead]

Wait for the playoffs, AROD will be out of ABOMBS!
