It's just Manny being Manny!

Or it's just Brad "Lights Out" Lidge!

At this point, I'm cheering for the winner of the Phillies versus Dodgers '08 NLCS to also win the 2008 World Series.

Go Phillies!

Go Dodgers!

I hate the American League!

Other than that, I'm ready for the hot stove league...

Go Astros!

I think the Phillies and Dodgers will go to seven games, in what will turn out to be an epic and exciting 2008 NLCS.

I just hope the '08 ALCS will also go seven games, but I have a feeling the Red Sox or Angels will only need five or six games to eliminate the Rays.

It could be that the Phillies-Dodgers winner is incredibly spent, with a lack of rest as they get ready to represent the National League during the 2008 World Series.

I'm not "high on the Rays" just yet, in terms of giving them a good chance to reach the 2008 World Series. They're a wonderful team that isn't quite there yet.

I think they're another year away from reaching the World Series.

In fact, I predicted the Astros versus Rays in the 2009 World Series already.

The Dodgers versus Red Sox was my 2008 World Series prediction, a couple of days before the 2008 postseason had started.
