Fearless ALCS Prediction
Saturday, October 8, 2011 at 4:42PM With ALCS action beginning tonight, thought I would get my prediction in.
This should be a close, hard fought series.
Early odds give a slight edge to to the Texas Rangers, but I like the Tigers.
With Justin Verlander getting the start in Game 1, there is a chance Verlander could pitch in three games, advantage Detroit. I also like Jim Leyland as manager in the postseason.
Texas will try to unleash their offense and get to the Tiger's bullpen.
An interesting trend is theTigers are 21-6 in their last 27 vs. a team with a winning record. They really step it up against good competition.
I like the Tigers to take the series in 7 good games.
