So Far, So Good.

On August 4, 2018 I posted"

" I'm calling Boston Red Sox vs. Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series.

Boston in 6.

Mookie Betts MVP.

Boston picking up Kinsler to play stellar 2nd Base has put them over the top."

After the first playoff round, my prediction remains on track.

Mookie Betts wasn't a real standout this round, but it was only 4 games.  He's due to bust out. 

My only concern is David Price.  Yet another playoff start melted down in game 2.  He probably shouldn't start at all in the next round.  Use him from the bullpen, see if he settles down, let him start game 2 if and when they make the World Series.

Boston over Houston in 5.  Andrew Benintendi ALCS MVP, Joe Kelly will shine in relief.
L.A. over Milwaukee in 6. Justin Turner NLCS MVP.  Walker Buehler will stand out starting game 3 and is my pick to start game 1 of the World Series.

See me in November.
