You think the Yankees are here without Sabathia and Teixeira and Burnett?

You know the 1/2 billion they spent last off season?

The thing you have to worry about with Burnett is that he is a high WHIP guy. High WHIP guys can get away with it against bad teams as they can get out weak hitters who don't take advantage of the men on base. Against better hitting teams high WHIP guys tend to give up more runs. This is pretty evident with Burnett who got killed this year by Boston, Philly, and Baltimore while dominating KC, Seattle, Florida, and the Mets. If Burnett can't control his WHIP and puts men on base the Phillies will take advantage.

good point. The way the umps call the game tonight will be a factor. If they squeeze the zone, it will be 9-7.

You yankee fans think its all about you. Give the phillies credit! They are the defending champs. They have won on the road all season, they have four hitters who have hit over 30 home runs and have rollins and victorino who get on before their monster hitters. Pitching has been great even with hamels not being hamels. You should realize pedro has been here before and is looking forward to playing the yankees. Did you see how he pitched against the dodgers? Not to mention they never give up. They battle to the last strike and have come from behind all season. So yankee boy wake to reality your team is about to lose to a real champ! Who may become a dynasty in the making. Enjoy a roid and all those chumps that money can buy! Get ready to cry like steinbrenner!
