MLB playoffs start tonight!

After 6 months of battling it out day after day (and a rough weekend series for the Twins versus my 4th-place Royals), the White Sox and Twins are tied for the AL Central lead. A one game playoff tonight will decide the division champion.

After that, it's on.

Personally, (like many other dreamers) I'm picking the Cubs to win the Series this year. The story is just too great, and the team is too deep not to like them. 100 years since their last championship. Great starting pitchers. So, Cubs over Tampa Bay in 6 games.

As for me, I won my (not very active) fantasy baseball league this year. I've played about 5 different years now, and won twice. It's a lot of fun. Here's the final standings and my roster throughout the season.
