btw coco COULD be a better CF, but its not very probable and by the time you had enough data to say he was, he would be losing speed dude to age while sizemore would be cocos current age.

Re: ALCS - Indians vs Red Sox
 

that avatar is amazing

i guess i was wrong about crisp, i had seen at least one defensive metric that said he was the best CF in baseball this year, but i can't remember what it was and i know a lot less about defensive stats than hitting.

Well thank god the rain is clearing out. What a long ass wait this has been.

Re: ALCS - Indians vs Red Sox
 

yeah, it's been too long.

I've gone through the typical cycle where I look at the opponent and convince myself of how good they are. kind of like during the last 6 Super Bowl weeks, you convince yourself that the NFC can somehow compete with the AFC, then they get hammered.

trouble is, I really do think Cleveland/Boston is close to a coin-flip. HFA could end up being a big factor. CC did not look comfortable/good in his 1st playoff start, and hopefully that + a loud Fenway crowd can get him off his game.

that said, I think the 3rd and 4th pitchers will be the biggest factor in this series, we can debate how much better CC/Fausto is than Beckett/Schill, but I think the reality is that it will be pretty close. I expect all 4 to pitch well.

but the big edges could come in games 3, 4 and maybe 7. if July Dice-K shows up, the Indians are in trouble. if it's ALDS Dice-K, the Red Sox are in trouble. and if Wakefields knuckler is going, that's a huge weapon for the Sox. I think you largely know what you're going to get from Westbrook/Byrd - but the Sox pitchers can/should either be much better or worse than those 2. I doubt that will be the case for games 1,2,5 or 6.

FWIW, this is why I'm rooting for the Red Sox

It'd be more fun to play them than the Indians due to their national prowess

Either way I'm looking forward to watching this series, should be good

Re: ALCS - Indians vs Red Sox
 

someone start an official game 1 thread, i cant because im too superstitious

Re: ALCS - Indians vs Red Sox
 

One thread for the entire ALCS is much better.

Well, they hit a home run, but nobody on, that's lucky for Sox. Sox pounded 4 balls in a row hard, just got one run, bad luck there.
