I would list them in this order:

1 - Rangers
2 - Diamondbacks
3 - Phillies
4 - Twins

So this was my ranking for most likely to least likely upsets in the division series. Rangers and Diamondbacks both swept and Twins lost so looks like I did pretty well. Now I just need my Phillies to finish off the Braves.

Definitely been unpredictable

Never would have thought the Dodger would have been swept let alone losing this around.
Never thought Texas would sweep but expected them to advance
Not surprising that Houston advanced and amazed at how consistent they are 7 years in a row.
Expected the Philly vs Atlanta to be a fist fight just surprised at the quiet bats of Atlanta and how hot Bryce Harper has been

Shaping up to be a fun series

To be completely honest I almost said the WS would be a face off between the Dodgers and the Orioles.

No Series (7 played so far) has gone the distance.

Phillies win tonight makes it 8.

But I'm hoping for Saturday baseball. I can't watch college football.

6 series sweeps out of 8, and the Phillies probably should have swept as well with a 4-0 lead into the 6th inning of game 2. I'm sure MLB is happy there's a game tonight and would love a game 5 on Saturday. I will be very happy if the Phillies can finish the series tonight.

If the Phillies win tonight Harper will get a WS ring....I predict.

That being said Braves can very easily win the next 2 games if their bats go off. They are overdue for it. Will we see it tonight?
