The postseason is almost upon us (one week to go), and so far some of the teams have clinched spots. Which team are you rooting for? Who do you think will clinch the title? Discuss!


[font="Georgia"][b][color="#FF0000"]Phillies[/color][/b][/font] all the way! Now if they can just retain their 1 1/2 game lead over the Mets, they'll clinch the NL East Division. Wouldn't this be the second year in a row where the Phillies stole the NL East from the Mets? :D

[b][color="#FF0000"]Phillies[/color][/b] lost to the Braves, while the [color="#0000FF"][b]Mets[/b][/color] won against the Cubs. Mets are only 1 1/2 games behind the Phillies, and there's only a few games left in the season.

Come on Phillies, don't let me down!

I'm trying to decide who to root for since my Tigers obviously smell of elderberries. Whoever comes up with the best argument gets my support.

You still think the Mets are looking good? :) Feels good to know the Cubs are layin' down a little misery even after we've clinched, and we somehow manage to win these games that don't feel like we should win.

Lighting a Cubs [url="http://www.cubscandles.com/"]novena candle[/url] for Big Z's arm... maybe his head too.

The list was taken directly from MLB.com .

I hope the Mets don't make it, I want my Phillies in, though they just lost another game to the Braves! So the three game series ended 2-1 in Braves favor. The final series is against the Washington Nationals... come on Phillies, don't let me down.
