i like oakland vs. minn personally...the athletics just get the job done, late in the season and into the playoffs...plus they got their dominant pitcher back in rich harden and loaiza has gotten back to his old self. i like the odds here.

I know you don't want to hear this, but my gut tells me it won't be the mets. Just a strong feeling I have. I thiink them running away with the division will hurt them in the playoffs. It has been a while since they have had anything to play for. As much as I hate to admit it, I think the yanks win it all. I hate the yanks too. I would rather see the mets win than the yanks.

good luck to your mets ryan.

I know the yanks are good but I havent heard anyone say the Tigers have alittle chance. Once reporter on ESPN said the Yanks in 2 LOL

Mets should get by this round but next round is going to be hard. The offense and team looked better the last few games hopefully they can turn it back up

You have to give the Twins 2 wins for both Santana starts. The problem is who gets them the 3rd?

OK listening to reports, doing some research I have decided to make only one series play.
Padres -155 4units.

Cant go with the Mets, because of the pitching ??? but I do think you see the lineup that crushed the competition in the regular season. Also Remember Maddux and Lowe are not great and the Mets hit righties well. If they can get through 5 with a lead they are 71-4!!! Now thats a bullpen.

Twins will win the 2 games Santana starts. Can they win a third? Without Liriano I am not sure.

Yanks price is too high. Will the Tigers be beat as easily as they "experts say"? They also said the Red Sox could come back from 3-0. This is why we play the games.

Enjoy October!
