ALCS - Indians vs Red Sox

[NT!]

manny is by far the worst outfielder in the series. it's not just errors, it's the fact that he gets to such a small percentage of balls hit his way.

crisp is a better defensive CF than sizemore IMO, but both are great. obv sizemore is the better overall player.

i have heard a lot of conflicting info on drew this year, but he has looked pretty solid to me lately.

Too long of a break here, I can't handle it.

My prediction is Sox in 7. I'm normally a pretty big homer too, so it worries me that I'm only saying Sox in 7. I really like this Indians team.

to people saying indians in 5 or whatever are you going to be betting large sums of money on cleveland because you truly believe you will be getting at least 1.57x what you bet back?

Based on what? Are you using your eyes, TFB, FRAA, another fielding stat, or some combination of these to form this opinion?

I can feel the Sox have way the best of it. My extra-sensory perceptions tell me Sox win this, either quickly, like in 2, but it could be a long drawn out affair. If I had to guess, I'd say Sox in 18-20 games. But that's just my yoga voodoo, don't go betting the house on it.

sizemore has been probably the best defensive CF in the AL since 2004 AND hes 25. i would be happy with coco being near him, saying hes 'better' than him is a bordering on rabid fanatitis.

this is leaving out arm strength, and while i dont know much about gradys i do know crisps isnt good.

Or ignorance. If someone had asked me who was the better fielder, I would have said Crisp for sure.

When Cleveland had both players they moved Crisp out of center, I don't think anything was ever publicly said suggesting that Crisp had a chance of holding that job. Its pretty clear that the Indians thought Grady was/would be a superior center fielder.
