How did I do on my baseball predictions? Let's revisit March:

NL East-Phillies Forty HR's from from Thome & 35 from Burrell ought to do it. Pitching is the key as always.
NL Central-Reds Griffey should regain some of his form and get them past the Astros and Cardinals.
NL West-Dodgers Bonds will not hit homers like the last few years and the Padres lost Nevin and Hoffman.
Wildcard-Braves The East will belong to another team, finally.


AL East-Yankees Too much pitching and Soriano will continue to play well.
AL Central-Whitesox A team that seems to have what it takes to win the division. The Twins will be tough also.
AL West-Angels This team reminds me of the '93 Phillies and really seems to come to play every day.
Wildcard-Redsox The Yanks will be too tough to win the division but they may make some noise in the playoffs.

Phillies-47 homers from Thome, 20 from Burrell, bad closer.
Dodgers, Reds, and Braves. I was right on one. Damn, I hate the Braves, but at least I know they'll tank in the playoffs like mostly they tend to do.

I got the Yanks and the Redsox. The Whitesox hung for awhile but the Twins were too much. The Angles just never got on track.

Predictions for the playoffs:

Marlins and Cubbies in the NLCS with the Cubbies winning it in 7.
Redsox and Yanks in the ALCS with Boston winning in 6.
Cubs win series in 6.

Maybe it's the baseball romantic in me that made me pick the two most losingest franchises in baseball history, but it'd sure be great theater.
