if one of those three matchups happend it be pretty cool that two in state teams go...but i dont see the marlins
making the playoffs tho....but there is no doubt pineilla should win nl manager of the year while i think the rays
joe madden should win al manager with the job he has done this year ..but wouldnt it be sweet if the dodgers and the red sox play each other with everything that happend with manny? and plus there is like 3 or 4 red sox from the 04 world series team including manny, derek lowe and nomar(well he wasn't part of it but earlier in the year he was on the team)

The only one of the three proposed match-ups that as a shot is White Sox-Cubs. I am not even sure that it has a shot. The Marlins won't make the playoffs. It was a good run, but they don't have enough left. The Dodgers too will not make the playoffs. They are such a hodge-podge and while they hit fairly well, they're pitching isn't up to par. They can't compete with the Webb, Haren, Big Unit D-Backs. Although, Maddux may slightly help. If the White Sox make it into the playoffs they'll be dangerous. They tear the cover off of the ball. While I'd love to see the Rays contend for it all, I don't believe they have the kill instinct need.

World Series Prediction.....Cubs vs. Angels
