Winner - Brewers (3-1)
A solid rotation can come up big in the playoffs, and the Reds wont be able to handle the Crew in just 4 games.
NLDS - Phillies vs Giants
Winner - Phillies (3-0)
Halladay > Lincecum, Cliff > Cain, Oswalt > Bumgarner (at least in the playoffs)
ALDS - Red Sox vs Blue Jays
Winner - Red Sox (3-0)
The Sox will easily overpower the Jays with an extremely good offense.
ALDS - Rangers vs White Sox
Winner - Rangers (3-2)
The experience and talent of the Rangers will beat the W.Sox in a close one.
NLCS - Brewers vs Phillies
Winner - Phillies (4-1)
The Brewers lineup gets to guys like Oswalt, but the experience and dominance of the Phillies can beat the young Brewers.
ALCS - Red Sox vs Rangers
Winner - Red Sox (4-2)
In a hitter's ballpark for all the games, the Red Sox have a good edge.
2011 WS - Phillies vs Red Sox
Winner - Phillies (4-2)
The Phillies will win their 2nd WS title in 4 years. With arguably the best rotation ever, not even the Red Sox can consistently pound these guys. A solid lineup on the Phillies side is going to average out the Sox dominance at bat a little bit, too.
PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES 2011 WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS
Awards
NL MVP - Ryan Braun is one of the best hitters in the game and will have a big year (I'm thinking .330, 30 HR, 15 Steals) in 2011.
AL MVP - Adrian Gonzalez is a great hitter coming to a park that is great for left field hitters. Expect 45 HR from him.
NL Cy Young - Clayton Kershaw is 23 and has had and ERA below 3 the past 2 years. Its going to be very low this year, and he could reach the 20 win plateau.
AL Cy Young - John Lester is getting better, and better, and better, and he will win the AL Cy Young because he keeps on getting better.
