Just a good, solid, young baseball team. Cleveland has banged with the big boys and come out on top. Nice hitting, good solid base running and great pitching. CC will be MUCH better his next start. The jitters will be gone. He is a beast.

CC is a monster but he needs to keep his weight down. Way too heavy at 290-300lbs, which can make him more vulnerable to injuries as he gets older.

If they're swept, it'll literally be the bronx zoo..

andy did what he does best for the yanks,big time pitcher.dosen't fold like moose,johnson...they never get the big hit in the close playoff games anymore.extra innings there done like 4-10 this year,after 11 innings its usually a loss $:-\$ ,they cannot improve anymore with payroll it;s not working ,it's not 04 and under anymore,young talent with good veterans win,there starting to get it now,if they bow out early at least next yr the pieces are there.

That was a big relief

I wish Torre only used Joba for 1 inning so he could pitch tonight if needed.
Hey Bod,that Damon guy sure has game in the playoffs huh

He aint bad. You should see Manny, Ortiz, Becket and Schill postseason

I hope to god the Yankees play Boston in the ALCS. It would not feel right if the two did not battle it out.

I knew the Angels were in big trouble with Vlad and Matthew hurt but I was at least hoping for a long series $:-\$

Vlad played. Every team has injury's my friend. Ortiz tore it up this year with a torn meniscus and screwed up shoulder. Imagine if he was healthy? Manny just came back from missing 24 games with a strained oblique. Both guys are tearing it up in the postseason. What Ortiz is doing with the injuries shows how good the guy is. The sox simply dominated the halo's.

Yankees would provide a great challenge for the red sox. Resting Manning and co was a great decision. All the pundits saying it was and excuse need not look further then the way Manny, Ortiz , Youk and other's are swinging the bat. Although that talk went out the window when the sox finished the season with the best record in baseball and won the AL east.

I hope to see a sox yanks series for the ALCS. Yankees have all the tools to come back and get a few w's to move on.

It is not Boston nor New Yorks fault they are big market teams. People are sports crazy in these areas. Especially for baseball. Boston and New York have been around since it all started. It is scary to think the Yankees outspend the sox by tens of millions still.

They are a great baseball team no doubt. The sox and Yankees took note of thre smaller teams doing it through the farm and revamped there own farm systems. Most of the future players on both teams are off the farm. Ellsbury , Clay B, Hughes etc etc.

Joe Borowski is the epitome of the heart attack closer. The dude lead the league in saves yet had an ERA over 5, that's just incredible.

Indians clearly the better team.

ieffinhatecardio · « **Reply #20 on:** October 08, 2007, 09:34:02 PM »

Yes, they were. The Indians are a great team and the ALCS is going to be a battle. Carmona is pretty much unhittable when he's on.

I agree. Great young baseball team. I was hoping to see the sox beat the yankees. Oh well to bad so sad

B fury you know nothing about sports. I delete you posts because you are banned from this board for constant trolling and baseless attacks. Read the rules. You had more chances then you should have.

I am a passionate sports fan. If people would like to see certain topics they should start them. It is not my responsibility to post other peoples material for them. There is plenty of diversity on this board. I (as does everyone else) have the right to talk about my favoritie sports team without constant flaming and argument driven posts.

You have proven time after time your main focus on this board is to stir the pot. Every thread you post is inflammatory. You are not being "censored" because you no longer can have your daily troll threads which serve no purpose other then to start an argument.

People like grape ape are great fans. You are just here to act like a 10 year old.

Hit the bricks troll.

I think the sox may give you more of a series. Although I think cc will be lights out the second time around. Cy Young vs Cy Young in game one.
