IM going to go with the Stros and the Pirates. Somehow I fell itll end up Dodgers and Blue Jays. Which would not be entertaining.

There isn't really anyone to dislike on this particular Cubs' team, but I might be bringing back my disdain out of principle if they beat the Pirates. I know most will still be cheering for them over the Cards, but it'll be a tough choice.
The Pirates are the only team I kinda like in the NL. Don't mind the Dodgers and the Mets are "meh" from the Gomez issue.

I would like to see the Dodgers and Stros (or Jays) in the world series.

Pirates are like a younger Cardinals to me. I can't stand them.
Astros and Blue Jays for me.

Mets. Love the young pitchers.
Pirates. Small market team that took their lumps and rebuilt intelligently.
Cubs. Just haven't found any reason to dislike them, and I love Maddon.
Royals. Love the way they play, even though I can't get over my Yost hate.
Jays. Probably the best team right now, and fun to watch.
Greinke and Kershaw seem like good dudes, but their payroll offends me a little. I like a good redemption story, but the Yankees aren't a good team and are no fun to watch. I respect the Cards for their constant success and especially for letting Pujols walk, but they're like the detestable Patriots of MLB. Houston isn't even close to being the best team and I can't root for them yet. Maybe in a few years. Texas is totally uninspiring. I like Beltre, but it seems they mostly bought that team by taking unwanted highly-paid guys off other teams' hands. Also, Hamels is a giant douche. They're underachievers relative to their talent and payroll.

Don't like anyone in the NL but will probably cheer for the Mets, mainly for cutting off the Gomez deal allowing us to probably get a better deal in the end.
Like the Jays, Royals, or Astros in the AL.

Kind of ridiculous how 2 of the 3 best teams in baseball will be out before the championship series.

I don't dislike anyone on this Cubs team, but I'm not going to forget the general Chicago sports rivalry and basically every year before 2011 when the Cubs went into hibernation where I loathed them.
I'm at pace with the Cards winning 3 World Series/decade. I'm not going to be as annoyed as if say the Vikings win the Super Bowl, but I'd cheer against the Cubs here.

I look at it this way. I hate the fans of both teams so that's a wash. I hate the players on the Cardinals but I don't hate the Cubs players (subject to change), so go Cubs, at least until the NLCS.

Excited to hear some Brewers fans freak out about Gomez contributing here even though he wouldn't have ever made the playoffs again in a Brewers uniform.

For enjoyment purposes, let's get all of these to game 5.

Eh, I'm fine with the Cards losing in 4.
