A change from yesterday's hysterics

Yesterday was good for a laugh with Sports Illustrated and a Mets fan picking the sport's biggest chokers the past three years to win the World Series. Today, we'll hear from a fan of the team most responsible for the Mets' poor finishes the last two regular seasons. Here's Phillies fan Brian with his picks. He still picks up change even though he no longer writes about it every day.

NL East: Phillies
NL Central: Cubs
NL West: Dodgers
Wild Card: Reds

AL East: Rays
AL Central: Twins
AL West: A's
Wild Card: Angels

World Series: Phillies

NL MVP: Chase Utley
NL ROY: Carlos Carrasco
NL Cy Young: Cole Hamels

AL MVP: Justin Morneau
AL ROY: David Price
AL Cy Young: Francisco Liriano

Who will be the next player revealed from the list of 104 who tested positive for steroids in 2003? David Ortiz

First manager fired? Jim Leyland

Who's the first team to be called "this year’s Rays?" Kansas City Royals

Which team's disappointing season will be attributed to players participating in the World Baseball Classic? Mets

Tomorrow: I'll post my picks and rebut that David Ortiz reference. (Actually, I can't disagree with that one.)
