If the Phillies don't win it all Charlie Manuel should be fired. I thought the same thing last year and I think the Phills are better this year. My prediction is the Phillies over the Rangers in 6.

Tigers-Yankees will be a fantastic series.

I think both of the divisional series in the AL will be great. The Cards are hot but I just don't think they beat the Phills. Brewers Phillies will be a great series.Originally posted by BoylenOver View PostA man who views the world the same at fifty as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life. - Mohammad AliComment

Cards over Rangers in 6. A small part of Bud Selig dies when he sees the ratings after the series.*Banned*Comment

I'm looking forward to Tigers/Yanks - should be a good series. I'm interested to see how the Rangers do as well. Emotionally, I hope the Phillies can pull it all together - they have the pitching to do well in the post season. Phils over Tigers in 6."You interns are like swallows.

I forgot to say who the Phils would beat - Phils over Tigers in 7

Yankees are the better team. That being said the playoffs are nothing more than a crapshoot, so I wouldn't be surprised with any team in the playoffs winning.
My ranking of the teams:
1) Yankees
2) Phillies
3) Rangers
4) Rays
5) Tigers
6) Brewers
7) Cardinals
8) Diamondbacks
Once again, the AL far outclasses the NL. Hell, the Red Sox would be the 2nd best team in the NL. In the AL, they aren't in even the playoffs.As I lead this army, make room for mistakes and depression

Well the Cards have won it before when they were the worst team in the playoffs. I could see them lucking out and winning it again when they are the 2nd worst team in the playoffs.Originally posted by cougjunkie View PostAs I lead this army, make room for mistakes and depression

How do the Phillies make the Yankees or the Tigers look like minor leaguers?Originally posted by Green Monstah View Post
Run Differential:
Yankees: +210
Phillies: +184
Rangers: +178
Yankees play in the best division in baseball and have managed to compile the best run differential of any team. The best argument for the Phillies pretty much has them slightly better than the Yankees not substantially better.As I lead this army, make room for mistakes and depression

As we have seen run differential does not mean shit. The Yankees do not have the pitching to beat the Phillies in a 7 game series. Congrats on being regular season champs though!Originally posted by mpfunk View Post*Banned*Comment

Agreed. I'd be curious to know what the run differential ranking of the last 10 teams to win the WS (but not curious enough to look it up on my own). If it's a metric that can't predict post-season success, then citing in a post-season thread isn't really that helpful.Originally posted by cougjunkie View PostPrepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss
