After one round, Sunny is looking good, especially with those Royals and Tigers picks.

Round two features some major star power: Shohei (the NL MVP), Aaron Judge (the AL MVP), Tarik Skubal (the AL Cy Young), Bobby Witt (AL MVP runner-up), Jose Ramirez (3rd place in the AL MVP), Francisco Lindor (NL MVP runner-up)….to say nothing of Bryce Harper and Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts and Juan Soto and Fernando Tatis, Jr. This round should be electric.

Here are our picks for the Divisional round:

Tigers vs. Guardians

Jason: Guardians; Joshua: Guardians; Sunny: Tigers

Skubal can only pitch once in this series, so I’m liking Cleveland.

Royals vs. Yankees

Jason: Yankees; Joshua: Yankees; Sunny: Royals

I think Kansas City is a good upset pick here, but I’m going to stick with the favorites and go with the Yankees. I’m thinking Cole and Rodon will be on their games in this series.

Mets vs. Phillies

Jason: Phillies; Joshua: Phillies; Sunny: Phillies

I really like this Philadelphia team to have a deep playoff run. Honestly, I would’ve preferred to see Brewers / Phillies, as I think that would’ve been a more competitive series.

Padres vs. Dodgers

Jason: Padres; Joshua: Padres; Sunny: Padres

I’m really surprised to see all three of us taking San Diego. This team is really complete and, just as importantly, they are much healthier than the Dodgers.
