Hi!
I almost forgot Home Run Derby is tonight. Rootin' for Chase Utley and TV's Evan Longoria.
Here's how I'm doing so far. My picks on the right, current standings are in bold on the left
National LeagueEast- Phillies — Phillies
- Mets — Mets (Wild Card pick)
- Marlins — Braves
- Braves — Nationals
- Nationals — Marlins
I underestimated the Marlins and overestimated the Tigers, but I'm not complaining. I do live in Florida now. 8)
Central- Cubs — Cubs
- Cardinals (Wild Card leader) — Brewers
- Brewers — Cardinals
- Reds — Astros
- Pirates — Reds
- Astros — Pirates
Haha the Astros magically stink now, and anybody who proves my Wild Card pick wrong is OK by me.
West- Diamondbacks — Dodgers
- Dodgers — Diamondbacks
- Giants — Rockies
- Rockies — Padres
- Padres — Giants (picked 12th behind Floyd "Money" Mayweather)
Now there's the Rockies I know and love. Why couldn't they have sucked in, oh I don't know, October?
American League East - Red Sox — Red Sox
- Rays (Wild Card leader) — Yankees
- Yankees — Rays
- Blue Jays — Blue Jays
- Orioles — Orioles
I love how everybody was like "Rays in third are you nuts?" Up until last week they were the best in baseball.
I don't usually like to make changes to my baseball predictions mid-season, but I'm calling this now: If the Rays don't win the AL East, they are taking the Wild Card and at least going to the ALCS. And I really, really want to see a Rays-Phillies World Series.
Central - White Sox — Indians
- Twins — Tigers (original Wild Card Pick)
- Tigers — Twins
- Royals — White Sox
- Indians — Royals
oh boy now there can be a curse of the jacobs brothers~!
West - Angels — Angels
- Athletics — Mariners
- Rangers — Athletics
- Mariners — Rangers
Nobody cares about the AL West.
Oh boy I can't wait for tomorrow when the AL wins another All-Star Game.
Fun fact: Last time the NL won was in Philly, and I was there.
