Really don't want to face Cleveland what so ever come playoffs. I think we would actually have a good shot at beating Houston. They have really cooled down in the second half of the season and we won our season series against them. But then again with how wildly inconsistent we have been any team could take us out in the playoffs. Hopefully this team turns it on entering playoffs.

I agree completely with your signature. I never want the Yankees anywhere near the playoffs.
The way I determine who I least want to face in the playoffs is to consider which team would it hurt the most to lose to. That's always the Yankees, so I always hope they get eliminated before we have to face them in the playoffs, even if they might be a lesser opponent on paper.
OTOH, beating them would also bring the most joy over any other team, so there is that.
