It is a tradition as old as time… or at least as old as I am.
I will make my Official Picks for the 2018 Postseason before the first playoff pitch is thrown. And as usual, my prediction usually is a kiss of death… just ask the Cleveland Indians and Washington Nationals who I doomed last year as my World Series picks!
So I SHOULD be picking the Yankees because that will eliminate them out of the gate!

So there you have it… I have the Astros repeating as World Champions in a World Series that would have confused a LOT of people a few decades ago. “Wait… the Astros are and AMERICAN League team? The BREWERS are the National League team? WHAT???”
So let’s play ball and see how wrong I actually am!
