Playoff time in MLB

Divisional Playoffs kick off in AL

The Major League baseball season playoffs enter the divisional round in Texas and Cleveland on Thursday.
Toronto bumped Baltimore in the Wildcard game to advance while Boston and Cleveland advanced as division winners. Ok...let's put the Chuck picked 'em curse on some teams!! LOL

Toronto vs Texas
Round Two of last season's fiery match up kicks off in Texas with the Rangers holding the home field advantage this season.
It went down to an explosive end last season and though the Rangers are saying more is at stake than purely revenge...beating the Blue Jays will be necessary to see any other dreams come to fruition.
Giving the edge to the home team.
Series Winners: Texas in 4

Boston vs Cleveland
This one is full of nuances with Terry Francona, now managing Cleveland facing a team that he took all the way in Boston, currently managed by his former pitching coach John Farrell.
Boston pitchers will have to be on top of their game against the Indians but in the end there will be slip ups so...going with the home team.
Series Winners: Cleveland in 5

Back with NL picks tomorrow!
