Now give your unbiased opinion on this one.
You and I both know the Red Soxs are not making it to the WS. I am not saying that as a Yankees fan I am saying that based on talent. |

I love that the Yankees, a team every pundit thought was dead in the water at the all star break, are now everybody's (Vegas has 2-1 odds) pick to win the world series. Torre has a really solid chance at AL Manager of the Year by the way, despite the payroll. I think he deserves it.
Anyway, the Sox are healthier than they've been for a month and a half. The arms are rested, we have depth on the bench, play good defense, can play small and long ball and we've been preparing for October since the beginning of September. I like our chances. |

hmmm..you still have a weak rotation, and the set up to papelbon has been shaky. Also, the yankees clearly have the better offense, and now they have arguably the better rotation (given mat-z's problems, and the lack of a fourth starter). To add to that, Joba is now what papelbon was last year. I think the yankees are going to be hard to beat.
If there is a series that we may have trouble i think it's going to be cleveland. The short series with CC and Carmona (who btw, remember the end of his year last year? He blew about every save chance.....what a remarkable turn-around) is going to be tough. But i like the yanks chances better against the indians than the angels, call it ghosts i guess. i just don't know why the angels give the yanks so much trouble. |

you obviously have no idea what you're talking about. The Redsox have one of the most TALENTED teams in the league. It's a matter of putting it together when it counts.
I'm sorry but no one is really a favorite anymore. As last year showed with the Cardinals, the team that gets hot has the advantage. Getting to the playoffs is one thing, but everyone starts on a clean slate once it starts.
Who's to say what team goes to the WS? That's exactly why they play.
P.S - how's Priest Holmes working out for you? lmao |
