paul carruthers Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Hello all, the MLB postseason is 1 day away, so here is the 2015 postseason contest. The rules are simple, just predict a winner for each series and for how many games. Also keep in mind that the first round of the division series in both leagues is a "Best of Five" series when making your predictions. The winner will be announced probably around the time all the regular season awards for MLB are announced sometime in November I believe, so for all of you who made Cy Young predictions for the Regular Season contest, those points will be added to this contest.Good luck everyone...

Walter Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I did a quick look at different people's picks and a few are at 30, the NY/LA outcome with somewhat separate the pack. But anyone who has their WS winner still in it, still has a chance for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
