[Dojji]

Nice reflexes there.

[Cocos Disciples]

I'm agile.

[Optimist]

That was quick.

 

Phillies in 5.

[Dojji]

Dodgers in 4. I think their bullpen is the only one in the playoffs that won't fatally suck at some point.

I'm not trying to make this into a Yankees' thread, but you think the their bullpen is going to blow up at some point? The back end is pretty good...

[suns]

Phils in 7.

[yeszir]

The middle is not

 

The Angels are good at exploiting weaknesses. If some of the Yankees' more average starters need to come out in the 5th that could pose some big problems

 

Besides the bullpen thing I think this is a series Manny is going to take over BTW. He's pretty due.

Jeff Weaver is better than Alfredo Aceves?

[Dipre]

Jeff Weaver is better than Alfredo Aceves?

 

Jeff Weaver is not on the Angels.

 

Yeah, i know, that post made no sense.

[yankees228]

He's talking about how good the Dodgers' bullpen is...

[Dojji]

Because y228 asked me why I thought the Dogers' pen was going to be the best of the postseason.

Now i understand.

 

But why'd you mention the Angels then, goddammit?

The nature of the Angels was important to why I thought the Yankee middle relief would blow it.

[Dipre]

You're still making no sense, but ok.

[yankees228]

Care to elaborate? Do you think the running game will be particularly effective against guys like Aceves and Robertson?
