I definately can not agree with you that the Rays are slightly better offensively. Not sure how many people could agree with that either.

Utley, Howard, Rollins, Pat the Bat.....

and thats not even including guys like the Flyin Hawaiian (Victorino), & Werth.

Add some men that come up big in some spots like Ruiz, Coste & Dobbs and that is one heck of an offensive lineup!

Uh, did you even watch the ALCS?

Upton, Longoria and Pena are just as dangerous as Rollins, Howard and Utley IMO, if not more. Burrell's OK, but so are Floyd and Aybar and when Maddon actually plays Baldelli, the lineup doesn't really have any holes.
