Division Series Open Thread

Figured having a thread to discuss the other games might be nice.

Rays and Rangers just underway.

Re: Division Series Open Thread

I am rooting for the Rays to take the AL Pennant. Love that team.

Hamilton is a decent hitter.

So what you are saying is that they are only 40% as good as they could be?

Indeed. The glass is half empty! Actually, it's 60% empty. :

Re: Division Series Open Thread

Not sure who to root for. I've rooted for both a lot the past 3 years, although the Twins are my favorite AL team.

Re: Division Series Open Thread

I'm interested to see how Cliff Lee does in this game.

If he channels his 2009, The Rangers might just make it through.

I'd probably do the same if I had David Price's fastball.

Not a bad approach when you can get away with it. It lets you save your junk for later in the game.

Re: Division Series Open Thread

I was just about to say I wouldn't want Jason Bartlett leading off if I were a Rays fan, and he gets a single against Lee.

Shows what I know.

Chapman throws like 8 MPH harder than Price.

I had to say it.

Re: Division Series Open Thread

Carl Crawford just tried to take Cliff Lee out of the game with one swing.
