How to play:

1. Correctly predict the winners of each playoff round by copy/pasting the format below and pm'ing your submission to me. (Don't post in thread)

American League
WC Round:
ALDS #1 vs. WC:
ALDS #2 vs. #3:
ALCS Winner:

National League
WC Round:
NLDS #1 vs. WC:
NLDS #2 vs. #3:
NLCS Winner:

World Series
WS Winner:
Total Runs Scored in WS:

Quote (Example)
American League
WC Round: A's
ALDS 1/WC: Red Sox
ALDS 2/3: Indians
ALCS Winner: Indians

National League
WC Round: Brewers
NLDS 1/WC: Cubs
NLDS 2/3: Dodgers
NLCS Winner: Cubs

World Series
WS Winner: Indians
Total Runs Scored in WS: 69


Playoff seeding likely won't be decided until the day before the WC round, so it would be best to wait until that's settled before making your bracket. In any case, current MLB playoff seeding can be found here: https://www.mlb.com/standings/wild-card

An example bracket of last year's playoff seeding can be found here (maybe it'll help you visualize): http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/standings/postseason-picture/

2. Following the format above, PM your picks to me and do not post them here or anywhere else

3. Non-regulars, welchers, blacklisted users, 2018 accounts, and obvious multis can only play for fun; they can't win fg

Scoring:

WC winner correct: +1 point
LDS winner correct: +2 points
LCS winner correct: +3 points
WS winner correct: +3 points
Tiebreaker: total runs scored in the WS

Total points possible: 19

All submissions are due in my PM box before the first pitch of the playoffs on October 2nd (around 8pm EST)

Hard to send in anything when the NL Central and one of the Wild Cards is still wide open lol

Ty for freeroll though.

Yeah, it'll definitely weed-out the people who don't keep up and post here regularly.

Maybe in the future I should just ask like "which seed advances" instead of the team.

Format is fine.

You just won't get any pm's yet since it's hard to pick winners when we don't even know who's making it yet or who will be playing who in the NL. One of the Cards/Rockies/Dodgers aren't making it.

Sadly the Cubs still have a decent shot at blowing the division and could be in the Wild Card game which could also change a bunch of shit.

AL is set:

1. Red Sox
2. Astros
3. Indians
WC1: Yankees
WC2: A's

NL has its playoff teams all set, but who gets seeded where is still very much up in the air.
