Yanks will earn championship, defeating stronger AL Angels vs. NL Dodgers.

The Angels and the Rays play a much more exciting brand of ball than the Yanks. The Phillies are fun to watch, though. I like the defense of Victorino and Werth and Ruiz and they can play small ball if needed. Manuel is a good manager with an open mind about how to score runs.

I gave you a "funny" on this for one reason:  Do you REALLY think that the Phillies (or any team for that matter) can actually win BOTH of the first two games in Yankee Stadium??  Seriously..... Sure the Phillies are a great road team, but the Yanks are damn near unbeatable at home.. In fact, the Yankees are 5-0 at HOME this postseason- just saying...

They looked unbeatable last night. Tonight is a must win for the Yankees. If they go down 0-2, with Hamels and Lee pitching at home over the next three games, its over.

Pedro will go 7 innings tonight and the Phillies win it 4-2.

Well, that's not what a true baseball fan would say.  The starting pitching in the first two games was stellar to say the least.

Nah, CC will lose for the third time in as many tries against the Phillies and Cliff Lee will put us up 3-2 tomorrow night.
