QUOTE(Kalapse @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 10:13 PM) This is the most even possible matchup we could have. They compare best to us, average to below average offense that manages timely hits, very good starting pitching and a great bullpen. These teams are really mirror images of each other, just look at the leadoff hitters and it's amazing how close those guys numbers are to each others. That all being said I wouldn't trade our pitching staff for their's. This is going to be a great, great series. No doubt in my mind.

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 10:08 PM) i thought it was back problems? Both.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 10:06 PM) For me I have a couple. Shut down Benji Molina. He's hitting near 500 so far in the playoffs. Jump on their starters early. Dont let them get into a rythm especially when we go to Anahiem This is especially for Jose and Freddy, keep Chone off the bases. Besides that pitch around Vlad and Molina when possible, I put Bengie in there as well because that guy is a monster in clutch situations.

Whoever is going to the games in Anaheim, I full expect you guys to buy a rally monkey and tape Crede's head over its head.

ESPN has just got notice that neither the yanks or red sox have advanced and the alcs has been cancelled.

Bring it on rally monkey's.

Torre disrupting krod's rythm and the crowd noise. I like it.

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 09:41 PM) Who's the douchebag who couldn't remember Rowand's name? Me, it's just such a hard name to remember.

This is the guy I want if I'm the angels, Matsui is so clutch but then again so is sheffield.

Giambi reaches and here comes the sheff.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 09:37 PM) Come on Pay Rod. Earn that 25 Mil Close.

Leadoff single and here come the boppers.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 09:33 PM) They're headed for the World Series? Was that meant to be in green? He's been wrong about everything he's said all season why would he be right now?? If we play the angels it's going to be one hell of a series, do our talking on the field just like the alds.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 09:33 PM) Does everyone want the Angels to win just like me now? I still don't care.

Here we go. Lets see if the yanks can alteast tie this up or if it's the rally monkey's.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 09:25 PM) As in take the lead rally? or just tie it rally? Tie.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 09:23 PM) I'm seeing a 2-run homer here from Sierra I'm seeing a k followed by a 9th inning rally.

I think Krod blows the save.

QUOTE(lukeman89 @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 08:13 PM) DUDE! that would be sick! his breaking stuff is already nasty and even the few times hes thrown a change-up, it wasnt that bad either. give the man some work and you are looking at the greatest closer of all time! Ya..going a little to far there.

Very, very, very impressive job by Ervin in that situation.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 08:06 PM) No, Santana. Usually pitchers like this kill us. Didn't he kick our ass earlier in the year? Yes he did.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 08:03 PM) God, you two are pansies. :headshake I will kill you.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 08:03 PM) And if the Spankees can't hit him, could we? Who are you talking about? Krod?

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 08:02 PM) All around I agree that LAA's pitchers are better then the Spankees - up until Rivera. Someone who has some time, what is our splits like this year against K-Rod. If we've faced him it's only been a game or two but we got to him last year I know that.

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Oct 10, 2005 -> 08:00 PM) Thing is, I'd rather face the guys that lead up to Rivera than the guys that lead up to K-Rod. Problem there is torre will use Flash and then MO for two so that ain't easy right there. Donnelly aint what he was and shields has had a few problems as of late and Krod still ain't in MO's league. They got a good bullpen but I think we have the deepest bullpen in the playoffs.
