MLB Championship Series

A look at the upcoming NLCS and ALCS

San Francisco Giants vs. Philadelphia Phillies
I don't see this as being much of a series. Sure the Giants can throw Tim Lincecum and Jonathan Sanchez but there's no way they can score enough runs to beat the Phillies 4 times. The Giants will have a hard time dealing with three headed monster of Roy Halladay, Roy Oswalt and Cole Hamels. Maybe the Giants pull a win or two out though.
      Phillies win series 4-1

New York Yankees vs. Texas Rangers
This should be a good series to watch and i'm tempted to go with the upset. The Rangers have the luxury of homefield advntage, where they will throw underrated CJ Wilson in game 1, and a true ace in Cliff Lee. Lee will start game 3, which allows for him to pitch in a game 7 if necessary on regular rest, and this will ultimately be the key for the Rangers.
     Rangers win 4-3

  1. wouldn't be too surprising but i think Rangers can split the 1st two games, win game 3, lose 4 and 5, and win 6 and 7.
