    I think Lee is gonna make the Giants looks stupid!

    If Lee can shut down the top AL teams what makes you think he won't completely shutdown the Giants? I know Lee isn't the only pitcher taking the mound but the with the rangers batting average and obp over the last 7 games they should be able to get to Timmy.

    I would appreciate everyones insights, are AL hitters that much different than NL hitters?

    I am not talking about the series, just game 1. Lee is 4-1 vs the Giants most recently pitching there in 09' and he pitched a complete game. Ya ya the Giants are much different now but he is the fav for a reason.

    The comment wasn't meant to be profound it was just a thought and I wanted to hear peoples opinions on it. I agree Timmy might be great as well but I like my chances with the rangers batting and Lee pitching vs the giants lineup.

    Over last two years in post season, I think only one game he didnt get the win. Someone can check this b.c just off top of my head. But, with how dominate he has been, you have to think there is value at -123.

    He'll be dominant as usual, but will the Rangers score? I think Texas gets just enough to win Game 1.

    YEah he is great. Has anyone looked at the fact that Texas will have no DH in games 1 and 2?

    Giants are use to the torture. It won't be anything different for them against Lee.

    Just like Halladay was suppose to make the Giants look stupid?

    As long as the Giants are underdogs.. We always have a fighting chance

    Keep burning your money on favorites

    BTW.. Vlad has some fantastic highlights while playing Right at then Pac Bell Park

    I was at an Expo's game where he air mailed a ball over the Giants dugout.. funniest shit ever

    The proper way to play right field at AT&T is to actually play Right-Center because of Triple's Alley and of course the brick wall

    With him cheating towards center.. it will be interesting watching him chase balls down the line and then showing off that incredible arm of his

    That right field isnt easy to playlike hen just said everyone that comes in to play right always cheats towards right center to cover triples alley and need to have speed to be able to cover the line. Vlad will have a hard time playing right field and that brick wall isnt easy to play either with the arches and all. Should be fun to watch vlad try to cover our right field. Not just anyone can do it

    Lee will be hit for 2 to 3 runs then the bullpen will give up a couple in the 7th and 8th. No question he's been hot but relievers will give the game away.

    Reliever gave up 3 run homer sooner than guessed. Lee is a beast but Vegas handicapped him with an over/under 7.5 strike outs. Everyone had the over....guess what???? They took him out right at 7. Gambling is a Bitchhhhhhhhh.......

    This is great. I love how 90% of this thread had Cliff Lee. Just goes to show you bet against the public is the smartest strategy out there.

    I was just glad the announcers(Timmy and Bucky) had to quit wetting themselves over Cliff Lee. What a couple of buckets.
