Of course you can, this is baseball and anything can happen. And it is the Yankees. This will be a good, long, series.. But you have no clue about the team you are facing.

Very excited for tonites game already... GO PHILLIES!

was that not YOUR best pitcher also?? this is great stuff gAles!!

And you also said CC was better than Lee, so take a look at your track record here..

I wouldnt trade line-ups with you in the next 2 games. Burnett is a righty and we are much better against righty's. Like I said, the Phils are not intimidated by any pitcher, let alone AJ Burnett and Andy Pettite.

I'll give you Pettite over Hamels for sure (the way they are pitching now) but if you would actually pay attention to the way Pedro has pitched its a wash at the very least. Lee killed the Yankee's with his command last night... Pedro is still one of the best in the whole univerise when it comes to command. this isnt the 2008 Mets Pedro we are talking about. He's healthy, happy, and confident. And still a 3 time Cy Young winner and one of the greatest pitchers (even though he cheated) in history.

Its gonna be a good game and could easily go either way, just dont understand all the yankee confidence. But I like it.. I love being the underdog.

cc is better than lee - he wasn't last night but overall he is a little better

burnett is better than pedro by a larger margin than the above

pettite is better than hamels by a larger margin than both of the above

i personally don't think pedro can pitch in the cold anymore , it will be in the 50's come game time , if he goes the full 5 against this lineup i will be shocked

At some point you will figure out that pitchers face opposing teams lineups, not other pitchers.

Lee handled the yankees better than CC did the Phils. Who is better, was better, will be better doesnt matter.

Its more important how Burnett pitches, and for how long Burnett lasts. Good grief, your team is the one who lost game 1 and needs this game. Your bullpen sucks right now minus the Sandman. For the Yankees to win this game, they need to be focused on shutting down the 2 guys that killed you last night rather than worry about some guy named Pedro...For one moment, forget about his history and all his Cy Youngs. Hes just a pitcher trying to give his team a chance to win. You're looking way too far into this.

yeah, i mean he's only started in about 35,849 games against AL teams, and won 3 AL Cy Young awards, so he for sure wont know what he's up against!

Well, L.A. wasn't a true test. That's true. They have very little plate discipline. He looked like he was pitching well, but the Dodgers offense shouldn't be compared to the Yanks. L.A. is a good pitching team that(except for 1 starting performance) simply didn't pitch. You know, somehow, these Phillies. Well, you'll see. People struggle when they are forced to pitch well against them. If you don't pitch well, this team will simply eat you up. They don't just foul these mistakes off. They will hit them in places that will not please you. It forces someone to pitch like their best to just survive. Where is the break in their line-up? Feliz Navidad?
