You are aware that Charlie Manuel isn't looking or even needing a Lee like performance from Pedro tonight. I think Pedro's backclass is significant in this spot. The guys is a huge competitor that has pitched great in big spots before. He has played much of is career in the northeast so he's seen his share of cold weather games. Also I'm sure that Pedro would probably like to pitch another couple of seasons and tonight will be another open audition to the rest of the world (although he's probably done enough to get a contract out of someone next season).
You are underestimating a guy that has done plent of damage to the Yankees in the past.
