They announced the roster for the first round today. A couple of surprises, at least for me.

Bench players:

Mientkiewicz/Giambi (Mientkiewicz is starting Game 1)
Betemit
Duncan
Molina
Sardinha

I guess Sardinha's fast and can play third. He must be a better runner than Alberto Gonzalez.

They went with seven relievers:

Rivera
Joba
Vizcaino
Hughes
Farnsworth
Ohlendorf
Veras

I'm surprised, and very happy, that Villone didn't make it. They must have loved what they saw from Ohlendorf in the last few weeks.

What a change from the Yankees of the past. So great to see talent beating out experience finally.

I'm jealous. I got to go to a couple of Yankees/Orioles ALCS games at Camden Yards in '96. By far the best time I ever had at a baseball game.

Ohlendorf's slider is nasty and has some serious tilt to it. He can also throw 95 so I am very happy with him on the roster.

I'd rank the relievers

Mo/Joba
Ohlendorf
Viz
Hughes
Farnsworth
Veras

I will be at the Jake for Game 2 on Friday night. Flying home on Saturday. Sleep. Home Office for Baseball on Sunday evening (and Monday, if necessary).

Ahhh. I didn't know you were already in CLE. I thought maybe it was easier and/or cheaper to fly from NY to see them in CLE than actually see the games in NY.
