THT staff playoff predictions summary
In the interest of full disclose, and because I finally got around to formatting the picks, below are the staff’s playoff predictions.
My apologies for the tardiness, but at least they’re up before any Division Series is decided.
You’ll notice certain teams received plenty of endorsements in their attempts to attain a title, while other squads garnered little support (cough, cough, St. Louis).
A review of everyone’s success and/or failure rate will be presented once a champion is crowned. Until then, let’s continue to enjoy us some postseason baseball.

Braves Fan, it’s our West Coast bias.
JB, I don’t have the readers entries, but I’ll see if we can do a comparision.
I changed my Brewers pick to AZ at the last moment. Whoops. I think it’s because I don’t like the Brewers uniforms
(at least not the current ones)
Very interesting, 3 guys picked Detroit and Texas and they all went with Arizona instead of Milwaukee.
My All-In on the rays will be the death of me.
Yes it was Jeffrey…:)
You guys seeing pretty much the same spread/percentages for teams in the readers’ contest entries?
At least they won game 1. It covered all my other predictions
Hey now … I picked the Phils to loss to the Cards … creating the ‘Beer Series’ …
My bad, Mat. I saw you had the Phillies listed first, and I missed the part where you said they lose. The review article will fix this.
