Edit: Damn, there's something I'd forgotten about. I should have remembered cause the Red sox and Yankees haven't squared off in the first round. Rule: "In 1998, Major League Baseball made two very important changes to the way the playoffs are run: # They gave home field advantage to the division winners with the best records, instead of rotating it among the divisions. The wild-card team plays the division winner with the best record, unless those two teams are in the same division." Got the clairification from the link below: www.all-baseball.com/ref/wildcard.htmlSo here'e the edited version of my predictions: 1. NY Yankees 2. Toronto 3. Boston 4. Tampa Bay 5. Baltimore With the first round playoff match-ups as follows: Toronto vs White Sox LA Angels vs NY Yankees Final: NY Yankees vs Toronto World Series: Cardinals defeat NY Yankees

I don't think that the wildcard is able to play the divisional champion of the division that they play in.
