Question

Would a Cardinals vs Cubs NLCS and a Yankees vs Red Sox ALCS be the best thing for MLB?

Answer 1

Those would be ratings bonanzas for Fox and TBS.

And I'd be pulling hard for a Yankees-Cardinals World Series. The all-time winningest teams in both leagues playing for a championship. Both teams have huge fanbases and great traditions. You'd have the Midwest on lock and the biggest city in the U.S. on lock. I'd root for it easily.

And of course, I'd want the Yanks to take it in 6.

Answer 2

Cubs and Rays would probably be the most interesting World Series.

Answer 3

Not really. I'm not a fan of any of those teams one bit. I'd go for the Cards I guess but that's only because they are the most tolerable for me.

A great CS would be Angels/Rays and Brewers/Dodgers. I would like that. The best thing for MLB, I guess what you said is correct but it doesn't really interest me one bit.

Answer 4

No the best for MLB is Cubs v. Mets NLCS, Yankees v. Red Sox ALCS.  World Series, Cubs v. Yankees.  That would take care of ratings and history.  I think that every one would watch.  It would be the highest rated World Series in years.

Answer 5

It would be amazing. But not possible for the reason that the Rays will win the AL East with Boston taking the wild card. The Cardinals will mount a comeback however, and will face the Cubs in the NLCS and win, that is if the Cubs make it that far.

Answer 6

That would be worth watching.

Answer 7

And then the Red Sox Cubbies world series. This isn't so much good for the MLB as it is good for FOX who airs these games.

Answer 8

Not the Cards...They have a small following..remember the poor ratings of the Tigers and the Cards.  Put the Mets there and the ratings would be great.
