3 games really don't mean much. He** even the Royals took 2 of 3 at fenway this year.

There's no way the Rockies are going to be able to take this series back to Cleveland!

Hey I was hoping the Rockies would take the whole thing but obviously it's looking grim right now. Boston's post season experience comes also comes into play. It took them over 80 years to get it right, now there 2 game away from 2.

Not excited. Just not suprised. Boston has the better team.

I dunno about that...Fenway is a difficult park to play in...as is Coors ... for example with the expansive outfield you gotta get on your horse to make plays on balls in the gaps or down the lines....not so in Fenway where you gotta be there or know how to play the bounce...it is going to be a different game....

Quiet Storm · 10-26-2007, 03:45 AM

From top to bottom, the Rocks just might have a better line up. They don't have two Hall of Famers (not solidified, yet. Even though I guess Ortiz isn't a shoe-in right now) but they have some guys who can terror the cover off the ball. I should know...(Pads Fan)...like Helton and Holiday, among others.

With that said, how do you like Fogg versus the Red Sox lineup in Coors?

I like Fogg mainly because he isn't afraid of anyone he will challenge anyone to hit his stuff (low 90's)...he is the kinda guy that smiles at you wile you threaten to kick his ass...like he wants you to try....I'm a bit concerned about Cook, but if he has command of his stuff the it should be good.....if it gets that far I'm considering the Rocks drop Franics in Favor of another Jiminez start....I know that sounds crazy but I just think the SUX have a much harder time with the fireballers

Didn't Fogg pitch that one game playoff against the Pads? I do remember distinctly thinking he had smug look on his face. We shall see if he has that same look when Manny and David face him a couple of times.

Can I tell you how much hate I have for Kevin Useless. For some unknown reason people love him, but for the first three years of his career he was the biggest rally killer the game of baseball had ever seen.

His stance is annoying, his swing is annoying, his practice swing between pitches is annoying, and his pretending to practice swing when in the dugout is even more annoying.

People in Boston have made Useless seem like a fucking god this season and were saying he could be the MVP at the begining of the season. He got off to a good start but fell back into his sh*tbum self around June.

you keep on bringing that up, but that was back in what July? Plus 6 other teams gave him a loss too, its not like the Rockies gave him his only loss of the year. Beckett has been damn near perfect in October.
