MLB Playoff Watch: Take Two

(My predictions from a few weeks ago): MLB Playoff Watch 2005

America’s League:
Boston wins the East. (Won’t happen)
White Sox wins the Central. Indians on their tale, though.
Oakland wins the West, pulling through at the last second. (Didn’t happen)
Wild card would go to either the White Sox (if they hold on, and I think they will) or to Cleveland.

National League:
As always, Atlanta wins the East.
St. Louis can’t loose the Central.
It looks like San Diego wins the west by default (how sad); no one else seems to want it.
I take Houston to win the card.

Let’s see, Boston is not going to win the East. Yankees pretty much have that one, pending a miracle. We can always hope that Boston does me right. The White Sox have won their division. Angels overtook the A’s, that one was pretty shaky for a bit, but the A’s decided to get cold, Angels got hot. Cleveland and Boston are tied for the wildcard. Cleveland has shown signs of cooling, as has the BoSox. Atlanta, St. Louis, and San Diego have all won their divisions, and Houston has a 2 ½ game lead on Philly. Looks like a shoe in at this point. The AL wildcard would be the only thing of interest at this point… I am going to say at this point that

America’s League:
Yankees will win the East.
White Sox won the Central.
Angels won the West.
Wild card would go to either the Red Sox or to Cleveland. I will say the Red Sox.

National League:
Atlanta won the East.
St. Louis won the Central.
San Diego won the West.
Houston will win the card.

My new prediction to the big show would have to be the Angels and the Braves, although Houston is hot, as are the Yankees.

On a side note, the NL East, everyone is over .500 right now… very cool.
