Easy-breezy...just pick one team from each matchup, and how many games it will take them to win that series. First round is a best-of-five game series, with the higher ranked squad at home for games 1, 2 and if necessary, 5. Home team listed last in each matchup:

Tampa Bay Rays vs Texas Rangers
Detroit Tigers vs New York Yankees
Arizona Diamondbacks vs Milwaukee Brewers
St Louis Cardinals vs Philadelphia Phillies


My first round picks:

Tampa Bay in 5
Yankees in 4
Brewers in 5
Phillies in 3

^^^ It was less an indictment of the Cards as it was being impressed by the Phils... Wink

Shout out to Stl finFan...wanted to apologize for an earlier post saying the Cards suck....they deserve alot of credit for coming back and making the playoffs.  Also, hope that Pujols stays in St.Louis...Cheers and good luck today! Grin

Thank you very much!  I just got home.  I am hoarse, sweaty, thirsty, tired and pretty damn happy too!
