Via BoDog.com, here are your first-round series prices:

Rangers -170 over the Rays (+150)
Yankees -150 over the Tigers (+130)
Brewers -170 over the Diamondbacks (+150)
Phillies -300 over the Cardinals (+250)

Odds to win the 2011 World Series

Philadelphia Phillies: 7/4
New York Yankees: 4/1
Detroit Tigers: 7/1
Milwaukee Brewers: 15/2
Tampa Bay Rays: 8/1
Texas Rangers: 8/1
Arizona Diamondbacks: 14/1
St. Louis Cardinals: 14/1

In Thursday's A.M. Hot Clicks, I told you I thought the Yankees would lose in the first round. I don't know why, but after a lot of thinking in the past 24 hours, I've done a 180. I'm picking the Yankees in 4. Other worthless predictions you should bet against: Texas over Tampa in 4. Phillies in 3. Brewers in 4. If you want to take a chance on a decent underdog to win the whole thing, Milwaukee at 15/2 and Texas at 8/1 look good.
Car Of The Day
Earlier this week, Hot Clicks had an item on the funky hairdo and beard of Chargers defensive lineman Antonio Garay. In terms of bizarreness, those are NOTHING compared the car Garay owns.
I'm Not Sure Milwaukee Would Agree With Those Signs
The Cardinals won the National League wild card. Based on this photo, someone needs to let them know that. (Thanks to Tim, of Milwaukee, for the link.)
Photo Gallery Of The Day

If you watch the Price Is Right, you may be familiar with model Rachel Reynolds. If you don't watch the Price Is Right, here's what you're missing.
Poor Kyle Orton
Despite Tim Tebow telling fans not to spend money on billboards demanding he start at quarterback for the Broncos, a pair have been put up in north Denver.
Sports Video Of The Day
Normally I wouldn't post an eight-minute video in Hot Clicks, but there was no way I could pass on this gem. Make sure you at least stick around for the 4:30 mark when Sweet Caroline kicks in.

Jinx Of The Day
In the interest of fairness, Hot Clicks doesn't want to just focus on Boston's collapse. Here's a video shot in August from the MLB Fan Cave in which Braves pitcher Craig Kimbrel and first baseman Freddie Freeman filmed a skit about clearing their postseason schedules because they'll be in the playoffs. (Thanks to Adam Dolezal, of Lemont, Ill., for the video.)
