So far it's unanimous: White Sox!

I like your prediction of ChiSox in 6 games. I was really doubting them down the stretch, but they sure showed up for the playoffs! I call Konerko for WS MVP and Guillen will have a heart attack on the field in the postgame celebration. Then it'll be another 20 years before they're back.

As I posted on the Board earlier today, for anybody that likes baseball or a good sports event, I think this could be pretty dang good. Of course, I'm partial to pitching over power. Both teams are going to throw out there some amazing pitching that should go to town on the fairly not-awesome bats. And the storylines in this one are much better than Steinbrenner paying $200M for a genuine good guy, a confirmed juicer, a you-know-he's-juicing, the epitome of the evil that is Scott Boras, and a slew of other noncompelling players.

I also think it's funny that everybody treats this like it's a pair of small-market teams when it's teams in two of the largest cities and DMAs in the US.

Anyway... play ball! (tomorrow)
