Post-Season Picks - Updated (better performance than the umpires)

Off to a good start, picked three of the four division series correctly (what is a "division"?). One shoulda-seen-it-coming stumble. Doing much better than the umpires. What's going on there? They used to be the best of all the referees. I sure hope this doesn't mean replays. Fox-driven baseball takes too long as it is.

Series	Winner	Comments	How I'm doing
Red Sox-Angels	Sox in 5	Home field plus better bullpen. Changing of the guard at catcher for the Red Sox. Ellsbury is the difference. Abreu re-surfaces.	Who saw that coming:  Papelbon giving up his first run and blown save in 26 post-season innings? The end of a (brief) Bosox era. Ironically, Angels sweep is good for the Yankees.
Dodgers - Cards	Dodgers in 4	Torre manages better than LaRussa. Manny shines. Cards' Cy Young candidates are overrated.	LaRussa outmanaged again in the post-season
Phils - Rockies	Phils in 4	Phils have the edge offensively. Rockies are riding their late-season rush (again) and may win one at home. Phils could almost play in the AL East. Almost.	Phillies were the better team.
Yankees- Twins	Yankees in 3	Biggest danger for the Yankees is to finish too soon and then have to wait for the war between Boston and LA to conclude.	True to form. Twins did not have the talent.
League Championship Series
Yankees - Red Sox Angels	Yankees in 6	It's been too long for Derek Jeter and company. This may be the best team he's played on. Girardi goes back to Posada behind the plate for every game, realizing he needs the extra bat. Burnett is on the spot.
Phils - Dodgers	Phils in 6	Manny does all he can. Then gets lost on the way to left field. Phils have too much depth, offense and pitching. And Howard.Interesting match-up. Although the Dodgers have Torre and MANNY.
World Series
Yankees - Phils	Yankees in 5	Phils almost have the power to compete with the Bombers. But not quite enough. Yankees have better pitching and the home field advantage. Sabbathia becomes a Yankee legend.
