Re: OFFICIAL WORLD SERIES! - Boston Redsox vs Colorado Rockies
Rosters are due Wednesday AM. Cook pitched well in an intrasquad yesterday.
I'm thinking the rotation ends up: Francis Cook Jimenez Fogg

Hopefully Sox in 4 or 6. I'm a genius who plans a trip to San Diego to visit some friends this coming weekend. I'll be in the air during game 5.

[/ QUOTE ] I'm the genius who is going to Europe on Wednesday night. I'll miss at least game 1, for the others I'll be using smoke, mirrors, hopes, dreams, my home PC, orb, and my Blackjack in a wildly optimistic bid to be able to watch the game

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Rockies also have a better bullpen than the Indians. [/ QUOTE ] I can tell we're going to get along great. [/ QUOTE ] We'll get along just dandy, as soon as you can recognize the Rox didn't just luckbox their way into this. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] It should be a really good Series. [/ QUOTE ] rockines are a good team, and fairly close to the indians overall....they do not however have a better bullpen....sorry. [/ QUOTE ] They both had an opponents' OPS of .707. Rox has more bullpen wins (35 v. 29), Indians had more saves. Rox had marginally higher ERA, but pitched nearly 100 more innings. I don't have access to advanced statistics, but as much a hitter park as Coors is, I'd be surprised if once park factors are counted, the Rox actually have better numbers. If anything, I'd suggest the bullpens are equal. Boston, however, has an awesome bullpen, no doubt. [/ QUOTE ] How long have you been a baseball fan? 1 month? I hate to break this to you; but in the AL, we have this thing called a DH. That means that pitchers that hit .059 don't have to hit. So, crazy as it sounds, numbers in the AL are inflated due to the fact that players like David Ortiz and Jason Giambi get to bat instead of those pesky #9 hitters you got.
