In the American League, the only prediction I got right was that the Rays would beat the Blue Jays, which was a little obvious since the Rays had the best record and the Blue Jays were 8th. In the National League, however, I got all BUT one right, the one I got wrong was predicting the Cubs would beat the Marlins.
As such, I want to recalibrate the predictions I made and will do so with each round if I'm wrong:
Division Series:
Yankees over Rays, Astros over Athletics, Braves over Marlins and Dodgers over Padres.
League Championship Series:
Astros over Yankees, Braves over Dodgers
World Series Champions:
Atlanta Braves
I simply substituted the Marlins for the Cubs on the National League Side, and the American League Side is entirely gut instinct and intuition, mainly that the Astros haven't lost George Springer or Josh Reddick yet, while the Yankees have a ridiculously stacked roster (as is the norm for them), yet they do have weaknesses in their rotation and bullpen which the Astros have taken advantage of before. Time will tell if these are right, but I have a better feeling about predicting four series, then two, then one, as opposed to eight, then those many.
