Yay, we're underdogs again!

un-validation?   Some of these ANALysts don't even have the Angels as a Wild Card.  But honestly, I hate being favored.  Never seems to work out.

Only 2 out of the 7 didn't pick the Angels to make the post season.

You're right, sorry.  I was typing too fast.  Meant to say that, but only one had us winning the division and not one had us going to the series.  Trying to multi-task at work.

I agree though, I'm happy we aren't considered the favorites this year.  Hopefully this will allow the team to play loose this year and avoid the terrible April of last year.

Angels odds dropped dramatically when they traded away the Demigod Vernon Wells.

With the way the pitching has looked, I can see why the skepticism. However, ST doesn't mean they are going to pitch that way come next week. Keep the faith.

None of these Experts picked the Angels to have a league championship? I understand the love for some of the other teams, but I have it shaking out this way:

 

AL WEST = Angels

AL EAST = Blue Jays

AL CENTRAL = Tigers

AL WILD CARD = Rangers

AL WILD CARD = Rays

 

Rangers lose their second straight one game playoff. Tigers beat the Rays, Angels over the Jays, Angels over the Tigers to face the... 

 

NL WEST = Giants

NL EAST = Nationals

NL CENTRAL = Reds

NL WILD CARD = Dodgers

NL WILD CARD = Braves

 

Dodgers beat the Braves in the one game Playoff. Dodgers beat the Nationals, Reds beat the Giants, Reds beat the Dodgers, to face the Angels in the World Series. 

 

Angels over Reds in 6. AL MVP Trout faces NL MVP Votto to go along with AL CY Young Weaver.

 

Hamilton (Billy) vs. Hamilton (Josh).

 

It works.
