NL is the Cardinals all the way (the other teams don't even really matter). They have a true ace this year, so should be clear sailing. Who's gonna beat them, the Padres?
And in the series, Yanks over Cardinals in 5 and all is well in the baseball world.

The seeding would look like that IF the White sox hold off the Tribe and well.........
8-0
2 out of 3
I seriously do not think the Yanks are going to be a factor, hell they may not even make the playoffs. When the Tribe overcomes the White Soc the Yankees hopes are beating Bosux for the Eastern title and I don't see them doing it.
I see seeding as:
Cleveland vs. Cali/Oak (this is just way too close to call)
Cleveland having the better win/loss so should have home field advantage (I think that's how it is determined for the division winners)
Boston vs. Chitown
Chitown takes on Boston because W/C cannot play same division in playoffs
Quite frankly, I am starting to think the White Sox with the W/C may get a fire the first series and kick ass....
so I'm amending my previous ALCS prediction to say:
Cleveland vs. Chitown...... Cleveland in 5
In the N.L. Houston's pitching is scary for a short series....... Clemens, Oswalt and Pettitte......
The only team that I think may stop Houston is the Braves. The Cards don't have the pitching and pitching wins series.
I just don't see the Cards nor the Yanks in the WS...... I think the way Cleveland has been going and the way the season has gone..... it is their destiny to win it all this year.
