Default World Series Predictions

While it is still early in the season I thought it would be a good time to see what some of my UPSers think.

Yankees fans are just so frustrated this year, especially since they had to go out and re-hire an aging old timer hoping he might still have something left in the useless arm of his, in an effort to save the team. Keep dreaming!

Default Re: World Series Predictions

Let's just cut to the chase. It does not matter who comes out of the NL or who the Wildcard is or who wins the AL West. The Red Sox will without a doubt win the World Series again. On a bright note, the Yankees will not make the playoffs and they will struggle all yaer to stay out of the basement. AROD will win the MVP for the month of April, but David Ortiz will win what should have been his 3rd consecutive MVP award.

If it is the World series why no teams from Europe, Asia, Africa.......:confused1

I say get the cricket teams out there....

And good luck to the eventual winners, even though I think it will be the Red Sox this year.

Local, those are nice stats. But Paul O'Neil and Scott Brocious are not walking through the clubhouse these days. To take it a decades further, Babe Ruth, Lou Gerrig, Joe D., and Mickey Mantle are not playing for the Yankees anymore. So your 26 titiles are meaningless in 2007 and you know it. Good luck in '08

You forgot they are also the only team in sports to lose a series after holding a 3-0 lead.

Very good post my friend and I do agree. But Derek, Alex, and Mo are still alive and kicking and dont forget that Rocketman will be here shortly. You cant take anything away from them and YES they do compare with the Yankee Legends from the past.

Think Boston looks like the team to beat, so far. The dark horse could be Cleveland. Think New York will be in the series for the National league, but will not be the --- Yankee's.

Yankee's are looking like they will not even make the playoff's. Ever since the little fat baldheaded coach (Don Zimmer) left, the Yankee's haven't been the same. Zimmer and Torre was an awful good tandem working together.

I think the Yankees will make a run at it but Boston will win the division. The Yanks will get the wild card and prevail in the AL Championship series.

The Mets will win their division.

AROD is now 0-May and looks intimidated at the plate. Giambi is washed up. None of the Yankee pitchers were in shape to pitch when the season started.
I would have liked them to no sign Clemons and give the young guns llike De Salvo and Phillips a shot...

Go UPS!
Go Yanks!

Not a shot in hell. They are 10 games out of first and havent won the world series in 7 years. This is the first time since Torre has been manager the team has been 10 games out of first. AND the Mets put them there. Theres a New, Younger, Better and more talented team in town and its gonna be along time before that changes.
