MLB Postseason Picks

I know I'm late posting this, but I'll guess you'll just have to trust me...

ALDS - Yankees over Twins in 4
Why? The Twins are a great story but the Yankees are better in every imaginable way.

ALDS - Red Sox over Angels in 5
Why? Boston has a lot of small advantages in just about every category, which adds up. The real difference here is the strenght of the Sox bullpen compared to that of the Angels.

NLDS - Rockies over Phillies in 5
Why? No one has answered the question of closer for Philly. Even if they go closer-by-committee, I don't like their chances.

NLDS - Cardinals over Dodgers in 3
Why? Dodgers are struggling right now, and they have a bunch of solid starters with no ace. The Cardinals very quietly have distanced themselves from the other contenders in the NL.

ALCS - Yankees over Red Sox in 6
Why? It sounds simple but the Yankees are a better team. Better lineup, better bullpen, and the gap between their starting rotations isn't as large as in years past.

NLCS - Cardinals over Rockies in 5
Why? Having Carpenter/Wainwright as your 1-2 punch is good enough to stifle the Rockies' bats, at least at Busch Stadium.

World Series - Yankees over Cardinals in 6
Two of the most storied franchises in baseball meet, and the Cardinals put up a worthy fight. In the end, the Yankees steal one from either Carpenter or Wainwright and get enough from their starting pitching to get by.
