Phils will make the Yanks pitchers work hard, and throw strikes. Both teams have power, and both are weak getting to their closer. I'm not going against that fkn Victorino. These guys have a way of setting a tone. That tone is :

"We think we are too good to lose this. Damn we are confident. I hope you don't have your heart set on winning this thing, cuz it's ours."

I don't think the YANKS have seen or felt this....ever. That attitude the Phils have tends to make the other team perform way below their ability. The Reds had this thing in the mid 70's. These are some confident sonbitches. That's the thing the YANKS are going to feel right away. Normally, it's the Yanks that have the advantage in confidence. The Phils have a way of killing that very quickly. Twice my team went in there on a roll, and got cut up. They performed waaaaay below their ability. Just look at that fkn Utley get up on top of that plate. Their whole plan is to make the pitcher feel trapped. You throw a strike. They'll hit it. If you don't throw a strike, then they won't swing (hardly at all.)Your pitcher can't throw a strike? Oh, you gunna get the gang rape. Yanks better play their ass off. These aren't Halos. I'll be betting the Phils, and believe me, I won't be upset if I lose. I'll tape it. To see that Victorino brought down to Earth would be just fine with me. Yanks better not start slow. You will never catch up. The only way I can see the Yanks winning it is if they get the 1st game. You win that, and you've got a shot at putting some doubt in the Phils' heads. Trust me, they have zero doubt right now.
