I'd rate the Yankees at about a 25 percent chance to reach the World Series, same as Cleveland, Boston, and the Angels. Yankees have the worst starting pitching of the 4, but the best offense. Cleveland has the worst offense of the 4 but the 2 best starting pitchers, the best set up men and the worst closer. Boston has Beckett, a good offense comparable to NY with Manny back and struggling relief pitchers. LA, might be the most solid top to bottom of the 4 with all aspects of the game included. I'll go with Cleveland as a Cleveland team has to completely succeed all the way through at some point don't they??

Well obviously closer Joe...he's the only one way above 40 saves!!! As the die-hard Cleveland fan, I will tell you dishonestly, when Borowski enters with a one run lead I do not sweat, I do not swear, and I have no doubts whatsoever!!

How can you lie to Uncle Chuck like that!!!! Shame on you!!

The Yanks will plow through Cleveland in 4 gleeful for not having to play the Angels while the Halo's watch Lackluster lose in Fenway yet again and what are we left with yet again!!!!!

Sox and Yanks in the American League Final .....plain and simple!!
