Yankees Over Cleveland in 3 Games

The crack SU team has been running statistical models for this first round against the Indians.  Using multiple regression, analytics and frequent coin flipping, SU has determined that the Yankees will win this first round in 3 games.  Things to watch out for:

  • Big series for Aaron Hicks.  For no particular reason
  • JA Happ comes up big in game 3
  • Gary Sanchez only starts one of the 3 games
  • Chapman blows a save in either game 1 or game 2

How are others feeling?  Weigh in here and have others praise you for your accurate predictions.  Or not…

  1. Ahhhh…. a true Yankee fan has emerged again in the CEO of SU….Howard Levine. I’m glad you said Hicks and not Sanchez. That would have required three more shots of that Koolaid drink, no lime for that to happen. I’ll never forget a few days ago when he came to bat. The first pitch was high but called a strike. He nodded politely no. The next pitch landed in the dirt but Sanchez felt like swinging at it as he got down on one knee to swing. Anyone having to get down on one knee to swing is just clueless.
    Yankees win tonight 3-2 as Beiber runs out of gas after 6 and one third innings and 4 hits and1 run. We score 2 runs off their relievers. Cole lasts 7.2 innings but did give up 2 runs striking out 10.

    PS For the record…the Yankees have the highest OBA in the American league. I, however never peaked to see where we stood in number of strikeouts.

  2. Rays over Jays
    Indians over Yankees
    Twins over Astros
    Sox over A’s
    Dodgers over Brewers
    Cards over Padres
    Marlins over Cubs
    Braves over Reds

    Heat over Lakers in 6

    Lightning over Dallas in 6

  3. I think the NBA finals will be very entertaining. Miami should match up well with the Lakers. Again, no real home court advantage for best record so it’s a much more level playing field. I have enjoyed this NBA post-season than any I can recall. I have watched many more games.
