Baseball playoffs are really hard to predict, I'm thinking the Tigers over the Cards in 6, but I think the RedSox can beat the Tigers if a few balls bounce their way, also liking what I'm seeing from the Pirates and they could easily upset the Cards. It's all about momentum, and sometimes comes down to one pitch, as we've seen. So tough to call.
Here's a little more detail
Dodgers over the Braves in 5
Dodgers are limping into the playoffs, but Kershaw twice is too much for the young Braves staff to overcome.
Cardinals over the Pirates in 5
Cardinals having homefield will be the difference
RedSox over the Rays in 4
Not a believer in the Rays offense, they may not even beat Cleveland, either way the RedSox have a good team, they're beating either of these teams.
Tigers over A's in 4
A's find ways to win, but I think the Tigers have too big an advantage with the starting pitching, especially when the young guys pitch in Detroit.
The closest thing to sure I am is that RedSox will play the Tigers for the AL crown, other than that, who knows.
T.B. scares the hell out of me. Boston went (12-7) against them this year but 6 of their 12 wins came in the 9th inning or later and the average scores in those 19 meetings was Boston 3.7 T.B. 3.0
Facing Price twice and Moore once is not easy in a 5 game series. Go Indians!!!

Won't Moore pitch game 1 against Lester in Boston? He'd be going two games. I assume they would be able to squeeze Price into game 2 and 5 possibly, but who knows, that might be a lot, but they drag these playoffs out giving a huge advantage to the big time pitchers. Is Peavy pitching game 4, if so, I think he's the key.
