I would switch Carmona and Haren, but I'm biased towards Carmona because he was on my Championship Fantasy Baseball Team.

So I woke up last night with cold sweats because I was so worried about Reggie Willits in center field instead of Matthews.  He has great speed, but he uses that speed to make up for his rookie read of the ball off the bat.  This is good for every ball park in America except Fenway.  He covers a lot of ground left or right and coming in, but he struggles going back.  I am very worried about him in that corner and over-pursuing balls hit over his head that are going to take odd bounces off the monster.  He might be a disaster in centerfield this week.
 
 Thanks for listening.

I agree on your top 3, but I think Verlander is fourth.

GO INDIANS!  CC didn't have his best stuff, but it was more than enough with the entire Indians lineup getting a hit, run, RBI, or all of the above (Cabrera, Hafner, V-Mart, Garko, and Lofton).  Fausto Carmona goes up against Pettitte in Game 2 at 5pm Friday.  Please, please, please, Fausto...put those pinstriped pig-effers in an 0-2 hole   :D

I'm a temporary Indians fan. Basically, if the Tigers aren't in it, I like whoever the Yankees are up against. I love that their chances to advance rest on the shoulders of a 45 year old and Andy Pettitte.

Lily throwing his glove in disgust is by far my favorite site of this playoff season.  It will be impossible to top that. You'd just have to know me to understand why...

I'm not sure which was more painful yesterday, having all 4 wisdom teeth removed or watching Anaheim squander a golden opportunity last night.  Thankfully I have healthy doses of vicodin for btoh.
 
 Everything played out as I predicted except that Boston's bullpen was fantastic - the key to this series.
 
 I think there's more to Vlad's injury than we're being told about - there's something else wrong with him.
 
 9 walks?  Anaheim is afraid to challenge boston's hitters, and Manny finally made them pay for it.
 
 And kudos to that fan - well played. Now get a shirt that fits since your dad is loaded.

More painful might have been watching the close-ups of Chamberlin's neck as it was covered with those bugs.

Is it possible to hate the fucking  yankees as much as I do, even though I don't give a toss about the sport??

I was already nauseous enough before that.  I had to go to the bed room and watch the rest of the game in old-def with my glasses off.  That was pretty gross.

so i suppose no one else cares to talk about baseball anymore with me.  :(
 
  I will say TBS really made the Yankees losing seem like a really important time in baseball history, or at least Yankee history.
 
 i imagine not much will change, but they were eating it up last night....i have watched Posada swing and miss 9 times since then...

Perfectly understandable I'd say.

Easily 95% of America is the same way.
