Predictions: 2021 MLB Season/Postseason Winners

I know, I know. Making postseason predictions before the season even begins are a little dumb. There are no real consequences for us forecasters. If we are right (we usually aren’t), then great, but “everyone” knew team x was going to win, duh. And if we are wrong, then not only are we stupid, but we have to roll out all the excuses. Who knew team y was going to get ravaged by injuries!?! But here at NYGinuts, we don’t shy away from being dumb or stupid; we lean into it! So without further ado, here are my totally right, not dumb in anyway, completely accurate predictions for the 2021 MLB Season/Postseason winners.

Well, there it is. Yankees over Mets for the Bombers twenty-eighth world championship. Get the parade ready down the Canyon of Heroes… what’s that? I’m an idiot you say? Well, you’re probably right, but keep checking back for our weekly updates anyway to see how truly wrong I am.
