Ok so the two Chicago and two Florida teams are in first place. It's still only late May but I thought it would be fun to speculate. I was just thinking that a Rays vs Marlins or a Cubs vs White Sox World Series would just be outrageous given how unlikely such match ups seemed in spring training. So which match up is more likely to happen. And which match up would you rather see?

As great a story as the Rays would be, to have two of history's most maligned teams face off when it truly mattered would capture attention and imagination.
I'd like to see a bit more veteran influence for both Florida clubs before I'd endorse them to make it that far.
A florida WS matchup would be more surprising, although i think most would agree a Chicago WS would be something incredible, on the 100th anniversary of the cubs last success, and the first time since 1906 they've faced eachother in the postseason.

Just a FYI. The poll is multiple choice.

Cubs/White Sox
More tradition/100 year drought/sick of the goat thing/their fans show more support
