This, by the way, brings up a thought that I should really post in the "I can't win in the playoffs" thread but I am too lazy (or embarrassed) to dig it up and do so.
The playoffs are a crapshoot. You bring up some good examples of that this year; how about the Cardinals from last year? Good pitchers suddenly tanking under playoff pressure, well see Chien-Ming Wang's performances versus the Indians.
So, this is realism. I abandon my former position on this matter accordingly.
