    Nice World Series coming up!

    Even though ratings wise this series will probably struggle it should be a great matchup.

    But to me, this is as good a matchup as you can find. Real baseball fans will love these games. The pitchers, clutch hitting, strategy, small ball, etc...

    Personally, I'll be rooting for Chicago without a doubt!

    Houston wins the Series in 7 in one of the best October Classics in recent memory.

    Incredible pitching staffs and clutch hitting means first team to 3 runs wins each game!

    Since MLB controls a vast majority of tickets quite a few got released once St. Louis was eliminated. Well, I just got them like 25 minutes ago.

    I'm looking forward to seeing Clemens go to work. This series can do huge things for the legend of Roger.

    Not a matter of TV market size...it's more a function of team saliency acorss the nation. If the Yankees, Red Soxs, Braves, Cardinals, were in it....those teams have a large following.

    Houston has no national following and the Whitesoxs have a following but you ask an executive which Chicago team they rather have in the WS, 100/100 will tell you the Cubs.

    I mean, i like this WS matchup a lot but not sure how the ratins are going to compare to previous WS's. Just my opinion though.
