The only reason I agree is that Lee won't be able to pitch games 1, 4, and 7. But it won't be as easy as some think. Both teams have been inconsistent at times this season, but the Yanks experience gives them the advantage. Anyone have a series price yet??

not showing a series price yet, but I assume -260 to -300 sounds reasonable. Probably about the same as Philly\SF
Considering parlaying the two favorites, have five units on NYY at +110 from beginning of year.Comment -
What's the line for the Yankees vs. Rangers series.Comment -
[quote=rthoughton;6840799] Yanks have Rivera, sure. But wasn't he struggling finishing the year? weren't there rumblings of him reaching the end? [quote]
Take it from a yankee fan, Rivera has stuggled in september before. In fact, hes struggled in september on three seperate occassions, and I remember every single time people would just write him off.
Fact is, he dials it up in the postseason.Comment -
I don't think Rangers have a real chance. simply not gonna happen.
After winning the first 2 against Rays, Rangers simply had to win 1 out of 3 games.Comment -
DupeComment -
Yanks in 5. Cliff lee remains unbeaten in postseason.Comment -
Poor Rangers..
Yanks will beat them so bad.Comment -
The Yankees just know how to win when it counts.Comment -
this is not even possible.
Rangers have better pitching, equal 'pen (minus mo, i guess), and a very good lineup, mix of speed and power and average. and have the home field. Yanks - Rangers split this season, and the Yanks have trouble in Texas (right?).
And, Cappin... Halladay has better averages against the Yankees than he has against the Major Leagues. Im not sure how an IL start in June trumps a decade of dominance. We've already walked this road.Comment -
for the sake of the underdog, I would rather see SF vs. Tex in the series.Comment -
Well. youre not gonna see that.
But Timmy Kurkjian just said, on SC, "Anyone who is counting out the Rangers (shakes head), simply hasn't watched them all season.."
Gonna be a complete battle.
MVP candidates : Josh Hamilton and Vladdy. One of the best arms in the game in Right in Francoeur, Speed and great baserunning. Power from Cruz and Kinsler (3 bombs each in DS), Lee & Wilson twice. Pretty good 'pen with Feliz and everyday O'Day...Comment -
tampa bay is a poor excuse for a baseball team.pena has been nothing but garbage since the all star break.******* PISSEDComment -
Rangers are going to mash all over the Yankees..can't wait to see it happen.Comment -
colby lewis and tommy hunter looked poor against rays... bullpen cant be trusted... cliff lee is going to feel lonely in this series...Comment -
That's what I'm predicting, Yankees may get shut down by Texas' starters but come late innings, Texas' pen is gonna get hit, and hard... hand the ball to Mo with a run lead in the 9th, or even sometimes the 8th.... and you have yourself a W. Just don't see Texas being able to keep those bats at bay all series.Comment -
interesting one team has gone through. it appears as if there were a series of blunders with manager decisions, umpire missed calls, and missed opportunity on offense all help contribute to one team losing and one team losing.Comment -
All I can say is congrats to Rangers and their backers. They showed they are for real this year even after almost choking versus Tampa.
They had better pitching and their lineup showed up every game, good luck to them in the series.
