The Cleveland Indians start the 2018 regular season tomorrow so naturally it is time to talk about the World Series.
SI’s MLB preview came out recently and featured eight writers giving their playoff predictions. All eight picked the Indians to win the American League Central, so no surprise there.
But a total of zero picked the Indians to reach the World Series, let alone win it all. And only three had the Indians advancing to the ALCS.
The Houston Astros are the defending champions and the New York Yankees got even stronger this offseason, but I’m still surprised no one has the Indians at least making it to the World Series.
