This season’s MLB Playoffs according to Guillén Sr. and Guillén Jr.
To begin with, Guillén Sr. expressed that the Cleveland Guardian’s team is a long shot. According to him, this is a team with very good pitching, young and with a different way of playing ball. However, to win, they will have to overtake the possible winners, Dusty Baker’s team, the Houston Astros.
On the other hand, Guillén Jr. mentions the long months of waiting that are ahead to find out who would be part of the Playoffs. In addition, he expresses he would like – as his father did – for the Cleveland Guardians to continue with a strong run, but he thinks their meeting with the Tampa Bay Rays is problematic. The Tampa Bay team has been in the Playoffs for many years, so they have experience and expertise, which could possibly prevent the Guardians from advancing.
Thus, Guillén Jr. expresses his support for the Atlanta Braves to reach the World Series. In fact, the World Series against the Mets allowed them to raise their level to become champions.
Finally, the Padres, the Braves, the Dodgers and the Astros are among those selected by our hosts to pass this first phase. As for those who may stay behind are the Philadelphia Phillies and the New York Yankees.
