whitesoxfan101 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 These are CLEARLY the two best teams in the American League, and anytime the CS has the two best teams, I think it's a good thing. Should be a great series, and although I don't really have a great deal of animosity for either side, I'd probably rather see the Angels win just because the panic that a Yankees loss would cause is something I could laugh at.

DonkeyKongerko Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Should be a good series between two evenly matched teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bones Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Go Angels! I'm rooting for an All-LA World Series but I'll be happy as long as the Yankees don't win it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 This should be a heck of a series. You know the Angels won't be scared. Mike Scioscia is 2-0 against the Yankees in the postseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan99 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) It is unbelievably stupid how spread out the playoffs are. There is no reason that this series isn't starting till Friday.

I'm sure that is the reason but can starting the series on a Friday night after basically a week without baseball really be good for ratings?

I guarantee both teams are happy about it, they can set up their pitching rotations exactly as they wish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I just bought Game 2 World Series Tickets for the Angels, so I hope they freaking win so I can use those tickets!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scenario Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) Amazing to think that Texeira jilted the Angels and had a great year with the Yankees... But that the Angels didn't really miss him... Because Kendry Morales stepped up and almost matched Tex's production. Morales finally delivering on the potential have talked about for so long was a huge factor in the Angels' success this year.

Morales finally delivering on the potential have talked about for so long was a huge factor in the Angels' success this year. They were also able to sign/resign Abreu, Juan Rivera and Darren Oliver. Would they still have been able to sign Fuentes? Regardless, Tex turning them down was the best thing that ever happened to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longshot7 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Angels win this in 5 I think. I don't think NY's pitching is all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reddy Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 damn do i want the angels to win. i hate the yanks with a passion and would love for them to go at least a decade without winning it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 So, ESPN making it sound like the Yankees are the first team ever to imply the 3 man rotation in the playoffs. Would you want Chad Gaudin pitching Game 4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted October 15, 2009 Author Share Posted October 15, 2009 Joba should have stayed the setup guy. The rotation idea was foolish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSoxfan1986 Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Sounds like tomorrow's game has a good chance of getting rained out, so they might not be able to start CC in game 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
