My heart says Yankees over Cubs in seven games as Greg Bird and Luis Severino overtake Aaron Judge in popularity.
My brain says Dodgers over Astros just 'cause they have the best records as of today.
My old-school fueled "This Should Never Happen" match up would be the Twins and the Rockies in seven games as massive snowstorms in Minnesota and Colorado delay the World Series and eventually Bud Selig is consulted and the games are moved to Milwaukee, where it is unseasonably warm. Game number seven ends in a tie and MLB has its first ever "Co-World Series Champions".

An October ride to remember...If you thought that last years World Series was fun just wait for this year as the Cleveland Indians will defeat the Los Angeles Dodgers in 7 games with Kluber out dueling Kershaw in a game 7 nail bitter 1-0 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think every posible scenario has been mentioned. I think the NL is between the Dodgers and the Nationals, and the AL is Indians or Astros.

Oh, you sweet predictors. I've been a Cubs fan all my life. I posted their record on Facebook after EVERY game last year. I was in from day one and never wavered. Alas, this is not their year. Don't let their surge against bad teams fool you. They will lose to the Nats (and I thought this even before Arrieta did in his hamstring today.). The Nats will lose to the Dodgers. All that is certain.
The American League is tougher. Boston, Cleveland and Houston are all scary. I think Houston will come through, though. But who follows the American League...?

Boston really doesn't have a chance. Compared to last year, the offense is just terrible. I'm really rooting for them because they're my team, but I'm not feeling it.
Cleveland / Houston - > Slight edge to Houston
Washington / Dodgers - > Hard to pick but I'm going with Dodgers. Their record is crazy good.
Dodgers in 6 over the Astros.

Gotta go with the Dodgers. They may run the table and win eight straight. They're that good. I gotta pick an opponent? How about the Rays, just because nobody else said them.
-------------------------------
I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

There's a pretty good reason that no one said the Rays. So many teams are ahead of them just in the Wild Card race. It's the same reason I won't pick the Cardinals to even make the playoffs, esp. after they lost Rosenthal for the season.

Not a single vote for Arizona? Dbacks have been abusing the Dodgers recently.
