World Series thread

Which teams would make for the most exciting World Series this year? Do you think those teams will make it?

 

[Pine Tar]

By the way most of them had played the last few weeks of the season. There is not a clear choice for me.

But I would like to see the Nationals and the Orioles in the WS

 

[Musial Collector]

For me, Nats v Orioles or Royals v Cards

 

[ASTROBURN]

Giants v A's

 

[moxacaine]

Nats and orioles or angels.

 

[Austin]

It's so cool how there are so many rival teams from the same state in the playoffs.

St. Louis - Kansas City
Washington - Baltimore
San Francisco - Oakland
Los Angeles - Anaheim

Then there are the outsiders, Detroit and Pittsburgh.

I want a Kansas City - Pittsburgh Series because I like underdogs and they're both long-suffering teams.
Although, the TV ratings would probably be one of the lowest ever.

dodgers for sure in the NL.

AL, I have mixed feelings. I like Oakland for their blue-collar type offense and an Oakland/Dodgers WS would remind me of their 1988 matchup. Probably not going to be Oakland the way they struggled to make the playoffs.

I wouldn't mind the Angels - Trout in a WS plus two games of Trout/Kershaw matchups would be epic plus the continuation of the freeway series but in a WS format that has a lot more meaning than preseason exhibitions or interleague.

I want the Tigers to beat the Cardinals in 7 games.

 

[Super Mario]

My dream scenario would be the Cardinals over the Angels.

Let's do an early vote for WS MVP contest? Winner gets a card/auto of value from everyone else in the contest.

Trout vs Harper in the series

 

[Nate Colbert 17]

I want the Tigers to beat the Cardinals in 7 games.

Channeling the spirit of Mickey Lolich?

I have always thought the 1968 was an under rated World Series.

 

[All In Cards]

beltway series, O's Nats

MLB and the west coast would hate it

 

[bmp1971]

I think it's going to be the Dodgers versus the Orioles in the World Series and the Dodgers will win and Kershaw will win MVP

I think it would be great to see the Royals vs any NL team.

However, I think it's very very likely we see the Dodgers vs Angels in the WS. Dodgers are easily the best NL team and I only think that the Tigers can beat the Angels. O's won't get out of the first round.

I don't think a team can easily be the best in its league when it doesn't even have the best record... I said it before the year though, I don't see anyone taking down the Angels this year.

I'm just excited to see the Royals, Pirates, Orioles, and Nationals in the playoffs, even if it's the dumb 1-game playoff. I feel better about baseball when these teams are good (maybe better, in a way, than when the Phillies are good, because I know they usually let me down).

I'd like to see 1979 Revisited, with Pittsburgh and Baltimore.

 

[SINFULONE]

I have watched every World Series since I was 11 regardless of who was playing.

Kershaw has to get by the team who beat him twice in the playoffs last year.

In the playoffs and 5 to 7 game series I think the dodgers are easily the best NL team. Who is better? Cards?
