This is one game. Odds are, the Yankees prevail in this series and smoke the Phillies.

Have you seen the Phillies rotation?
Regardless, IF we win this series I bet that Girardi could still find a way to fuck up against the Phils.

I say no matter what send Girardi packing this offseason. Of course that would be a lot easier to do if we lose this series or even the World Series (and if we win the World Series my sentiments might change dramatically), but I think we need to scoop up Mattingly before he succeeds Torre in LA after next season.

Please refresh my memory.
True but i still like Lee. He was able to stop the Dodgers offense which is no slouch. CC is still a great pitcher and even if i wasn't a Red Sox fan i would still probably take Lee. I think that they will pitch close to each other in the game but with the Phillies offense hitting the way they were i still like Lee.

So the Dodgers have a better offense than the Angels in your opinion?

Unless you come up with a better explanation than "I like Lee" it's obvious your opinion comes from anti-Yankee bias.

I don't think I would give Pedro the advantage over Andy just yet. But I agree with you, if both teams send otu 3 man rotations, the Phils match up pretty damn good.

Dipre I need to ask you an unrelated question regarding your proximity to Santo Domingo, but PM's aren't working right now.

I do believe so, that the Dodgers have a better offense than the Angels during these playoffs. Either, Manny, Kemp, Loney, Martin. I mean in the first few games of the ALCS and the ALDS. Guerrero who had not hit shit until Game 3 of the ALCS. Hunter played well. Abreu who had not come alive until the past few games in the ALCS. Rivera does not scare me as much as the others. Morales is a good player and hitter.

This post explains a lot.

You're taking the SSS of the playoffs over the team's overall performances in the season?

That doesn't make a lot of sense, sir.

I believe that if you don't hit well in the playoffs does it really matter what happened in the season. The Red Sox in this year's ALDS. Does that really matter or should we think about our season performance. You can't deny that they hit well in the regular season, but so far in the playoffs some have not hit well. I know that Manny was sucking at the beginning of the playoffs. He did turn it around. We will see what happens with the Angels offense.

You mean the Angels offense that scored 7 runs off Yankee pitching last night?

I said in the first few games of the playoffs not the whole thing. My bad, if i was unclear. i was talking about before last night. Last night was a whole different story. Also game 3 was a different story.

That's why you don't trust small sample sizes, champ.
