There's Only One October

New York Yankees vs. Minnesota Twins

The Yankees have been solid all season, finally getting the pitching they need to back up their good offence. However, the Twins are about as hot as can be, unless you are the Rockies. Coming off an exciting win over Detroit in the one-game playoff, they will have a huge momentum... but not enough to carry them past New York. New York will win the series 3-1.

Boston Redsox vs Los Angeles Angels

The series between these two during the regular season favored the Angels, 5-4, but they played pretty close. They both had their ups and downs, but had their playoff spot pretty well covered. Look for two good baseball teams waiting for someone to step and lead the way to the ALCS. This year Boston's big hitters didn't perform to their potential, and i think their playoff experience may awaken their power. Boston will win the series 3-2

(Notice the upcoming Boston vs. New York rivalry)

Colorado Rockies vs. Philadelphia Phillies

I love Colorado at the end of the regular season. This isn't the first time they put together a hot streak right before the playoffs. The last time, in 2007, their momentum carries them all the way to the World Series, only then to lose to Boston. However this year they face Philadelphia in the first round, and the only thing i love more than the hot streak of Colorado is the amazing baseball the Phillies. They are one of the best teams of the decade, and this is their year to repeat and be the only team this decade to win back-to-back Championships. Look for Colorado to win one, but for Philadelphia to win the series 3-1.

Los Angeles Dodgers vs. St. Louis Cardinals

The Cardinals are consistent and they have good pitching and Albert Pujols. While the Cardinals will be difficult to beat, the Dodgers, with Manny being Manny, can and will defeat the Cardinals. The Dodgers have more power than just Manny, and they too can pitch. It will a close series, but LA will win in 5 games, 3-2.
