So far, my playoff predictions aren’t looking too hot:

There’s no way Santana can win two games now, although the Twins may have the A’s right where they want them. (See: 2001 A’s ALDS, 2003 A’s ALDS.)

It would be a little difficult for the Padres to win the series in four games now, after losing the first two at home. Since I feel kinda bad for them, I will suggest one piece of advice: stop pitching to Pujols! Are you stupid?

The Tiggers looked like crap in game one, but actually held their own in game two. I still think the MFY will take the series in four. Remember, the Tiggers game two starter, Kenny Rodgers, is the reason they’re the Wild Card team and not the AL Central champs.

As for the Dodgers, well, it’s the same old Grady. The man cannot manage a bullpen. Here’s the quote from my conversation with Kim as soon as I saw that Penny was entering the game:

I’d put money down that Brad Penny gets the L in this game

And that double play was a thing of legends. TWO players out at the plate? It’s like they’ve got Grady Little managing AND Dale Sveum coaching third. I can’t imagine another third base coach stupid enough to run two runners into an out. But I think the best description of the play was from Kim:

I just watched the Dodger double play at the plate. I love how LoDuca looks up and oh my god, there’s another guy there!

Go Blue?
