I think the Phillies have a real shot in this series actually. We'll see.

Phillies in 6, Lee is MVP after giving up 0 ER's

I like the Yankees. I don't trust the Phills bullpen.

I say Bernie Williams wins it for the Yanks with a clutch Game 6 homer off of Mitch Williams.

Hes not saying the Phillies will win Game 1. Lee can still give 0 ER and the Phillies can lose game 1, yet still win this in 6 games. Ever hear of the bullpen? Extra Innings? Games ending 1-0?

Lee is going to have a 0 ERA and loose. Come on Gander. Your a hater anyway and now your on the Yanks Wagon... Hop off and hope Boston regroups and at least makes the next 3-6 years COMPETITIVE.

Wagon? I'm not rooting for the Yankees. Just being logical. I dont think NY has come close to playing their best baseball this postseason (yet they have dropped a total of 2 games and 0 at home. On the flip side, I think Philadelphia is a really good team who has been playing very well in the post.
My prediction is both teams play well and all games are close, but the Yankees win every one of them. If it were the Dodgers or the Rockies I might actually care who wins this. But I dont.

Phils will make the Yanks pitchers work hard, and throw strikes. Both teams have power, and both are weak getting to their closer. I'm not going against that fkn Victorino. These guys have a way of setting a tone. That tone is :

"We think we are too good to lose this. Damn we are confident. I hope you don't have your heart set on winning this thing, cuz it's ours."

I don't think the YANKS have seen or felt this....ever. That attitude the Phils have tends to make the other team perform way below their ability. The Reds had this thing in the mid 70's. These are some confident sonbitches. That's the thing the YANKS are going to feel right away. Normally, it's the Yanks that have the advantage in confidence. The Phils have a way of killing that very quickly. Twice my team went in there on a roll, and got cut up. They performed waaaaay below their ability. Just look at that fkn Utley get up on top of that plate. Their whole plan is to make the pitcher feel trapped. You throw a strike. They'll hit it. If you don't throw a strike, then they won't swing (hardly at all.)Your pitcher can't throw a strike? Oh, you gunna get the gang rape. Yanks better play their ass off. These aren't Halos. I'll be betting the Phils, and believe me, I won't be upset if I lose. I'll tape it. To see that Victorino brought down to Earth would be just fine with me. Yanks better not start slow. You will never catch up. The only way I can see the Yanks winning it is if they get the 1st game. You win that, and you've got a shot at putting some doubt in the Phils' heads. Trust me, they have zero doubt right now.
