So long as the Yankees aren't in it, I'm good.

indians over philly in 6. i'll take the phightens in the WS even if it means a 'L'. nothing like playoff baseball here. of course - we'll get dealt with the 3:00pm start time for playoffs games as 99.9% of the Tri-State area is at work  mlb then in turn wonders why nobody gives a sh*t anymore

SuperSonics Vs Whalers
If in the extreme unlikeliness that doesn't pan out, then I am going with my fallback choice, Astros Vs Cubs.

A's are not a bad pick but I'm going with the easy call, Cubs/Sox.

Oakland's bullpen is utterly ridiculous. They have Jeurys Familia and Fernando Rodney are there but not closing. The closer, Blake Treinen could be a dark horse for the AL Cy. Set up guy Lou Trivino is a dark horse for the AL Rookie of the Year. Add to that eight batter with double digit in HR's and three over 20. But can this dilapidated rotation keep the A's in the game until the bullpen can take over?
And I've drank the A's Kool-Aid before. I'm not saying the Red Sox are a lock. They have one starter (Sale) who doens't like to pitch in big games and one (Price) whose postseason numbers are laughable. Cleveland had the starters and a manager who knows how to win in October. Houston are the defending champs and will be healthy and the Yanks might get their mojo back when the stars come back.
The AL playoffs should be epic.
