MLB Playoffs

im a red sox fan but i dont think they have the hitting or pitching to make it. but i hope i am wrong. if the sox dont win i hope the dodgers do so they can see manny celebrating and realize that we should have kept him.

trading him was absolutely the right move. but yeah if the sox lose i definitely will root for the dodgers. i love manny, not to mention derek lowe and nomar. manny will always have a place in my heart no homo lol.

the day that manny comes back to boston i am absolutely sure that we will cheer him and give him a standing o. and thats not just the cocky boston fan talking, thats knowing what a boston fan is like. i dont think that we will boo him after 8 years of MVP type baseball and all the entertainment he provided us, and how much we love him. we never boo when a player has a bad performance either

i think that by july 31 he had to be traded but they could have resolved the issue before hand. and read the article on ESPN.com about manny its REAL good.

its long but worth it

ive been a six fan my whole life, but im not going to lie id like to finally see the cubs do something here

rays will win. sox will win. cubs will blow it. phillies will win.

im a redsox fan, and I would love to see a redsox vs. dodgers world series

I can't believe you're trying to back up Manny. He was cancer in the ball club this season. He's been quoted saying "I'm glad I made the move" he didn't make the move, the red sox traded him because he was causing problems in the clubhouse and being a jackoff to management. He's also been quoted saying "I'm glad I was able to leave all the lies back there(in boston)" That's just unprofessional coming from a place where he won two world series rings. He's a total donkey in my mind. I would love to see a Red Sox vs. L.A. Dodgers World Series, just to see Manny and his team lose to the team he's talked so much trash about.

sox all the way.. is anyone else going to the game on sunday?

A sports curse will be broken this year but it wont be no billy goat.  it will be the curse of william penn!!!!!  the fightin phils are looking good it could be our year! 

lets go phillies!!!    the phanatic hexes every one else!

cubs are fucked, and it really irks me

MLB is boring until the playoffs.  There great, i think the Rays have it this year.  How couldn't you like them.  There an eastern comeback story!

Woohoo go phillies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ya, im pumped but its gunna be freezing

you lucky bastards! brewers finally got a win. JD DREW WITH THE HR. ive always said he was great, but no one believed me. i said that his batting average is directly proportional to how hard he tries. so if he tries 1/4, his batting average is .250. makes sense to me! hes just that good

I was at the 2nd game. That slam was awesome

It will be the Red Sox vs. The dodgers in the playoffs     Boston has amazing pitching plus their great offense (lead by Dustin Pedroia) and the Dodgers are just really hot right now just like the Rockies last year.  It will be Manny of new VS. Manny of old

i gotta go with dodgers and rays making it to the series. the phillies, red sox, dodgers, rays will advance.  i wish it'd be the brewers and rays in the world seriies though

PHILLIES WIN

sox are gonna own everybody

damn right

picture this:

Red Sox vs Dodgers in the World Series.... just when Manny and joe Torre thought they could get away......

imagine this:
Red Sox vs Dodgers
bottom 9th, game 7, world series at Fenway. Jason Bay walk off home run over the monster and right over Manny's head. Now that would be something.

 I think at the end it will be the Phillies and the Red Sox at the World Series that my opinion.

staring to look like its going to be sox vs rays.
go sox!!

That would be a dream come true I cannot stand Manny and I have always liked jason BAy

FUCK WHYD YOU HAVE TO SAY THAT THE ANGELS JUST TIED IT

I said in the first thread rays vs phils and the rays win it. Im still going with the rays over the phils.

JASON BAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  JED LOWRIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

manny entering fenway = danger zone

haha
yeah that got nerve-racking at the end there.

go RED SOX!!!!!!

phils v rays in the ws   with home field atvantag for the phils against the dodgers the phils should take it plus our pitching is much better then the dodgers (as long as psot allstar break myers shows up)  the rays have owend boston all year and i dont see why that will change either, so my money is phils v rays   PHILS FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

not really.
In the season series the rays won 10 and the sox won 8. I definitely would not define that as the rays owning the red sox. The sox also seem to play better in the post season than they do in the regular season. I think its going to be a great series, that will most likely go down to game 7. As for the Phillies Dodgers series, i am going to give a slight edge to the dodgers. They seem to have more momentum going with them than the Phillies do. I also see this series going into the 7th game. There is definitely no team that has a clear advantage over there opponent going into the league series.

the sox and rays series will definatly be a good series to watch.  I think if lester can keep pitching like he has been this post season and we can get becket to put together a good start, the sox have a good chance at winning the series.  If the sox are going to get it done however, ortiz is going to have to pick it up a little bit and either were gonna have to put up a seriously high run total when paul byrd is pitching or becket, dicek, or lester is going to have to win 2.  I dont think byrd has the ability to keep an offense like TB to less than 5 or 6 runs.  If the sox bullpen can hold like it did in the first to games of the ALDS and not like the last two, the sox have a pretty good chance of taking it in 6 or 7.... knock on wood.  It will definatly be a tough test and i feel confident that the winner of the ALCS will also be the winner of the WS  

i dont see why everyone is jumping on the dodger bandwagon,  the phils have much better picthing over all our team ERA is llike 2.5 points lower then the dodgers with most of that being our bull pen as long as we keep hitting (which we have showed we can do against the dodgers in both series over the season ) i say phillies in 5.  the al goes 7 with i say a slight edge on the rays.   i bet the phils at a 6-5 fav for the series and the rays as a pickem 

Am I the only one who doesn't like to watch games played at Tropicana Field? Something about the turf and indoors makes it way less exciting for me to watch. Maybe I'm just picky...

i for one just cant stand nation coverage when i am watching the phillies i want to hear harry kalas and chris wheeler especially if the game is in philly. and when thaey go to LA i would like to her evin scully.  i am so freackin ssick of that idiot joe buck and his moron partner mcarver.  and fox hasnt even started thier playoff coverage.  but ron darling and wasnt much better on tbs its rediculous they no nothing about the teams or the history there have no emotional standing either ifthe games or being brodcast the home team commentators should get the call.

damn man i feel the EXACT same way.  i would pay inordinate ammounts of money to listen to jerry remy and don orsillo doing the red sox games.  I can no stand the TBS anouncers.  it makes me wanna put the tv on mute and just watch it like that. 

Here come the FIGHTEN PHILS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3-2 fuck off manny maybe you should have ran out your hit instead of admireing it fromn the plate. you could of been at third for that passed ball and scored, oh wait your an asshole so the phils won!

thats Manny for ya

yeah sox!!!!!

YESSSS THE SOX TOOK ONE AT THE TROP. NOW THE PRESSURE IS ON TB AND THEY HAVE TO COME TO BOSTON AND WIN A GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ive hated watching games on fox and the like with national broadcasters for a long time because it always feels so dry and distant (kind of like what you said); they just don't have that connection with the team(s). they just talk talk talk and just talk about whats good about the team that is currently doing well, and it gets bloody monotonous.

plus they green screen the ads on the backstops so it gets even more generic.

FUCK

HELL YEAH!! MY BROTHER GOT TICKETS TO ALCS GAME 5!!!!!!!!  i am so stoked. cant wait to go. 

thats sick
