Who Wins World Series? Let Me Break It Down For 'Ya.....

Wow.

Tech N9ne · 10-19-11, 02:12 PM

Rangers are the lock of the world

No way rangers lose

50K on rangers to win series

....Nice break down.........Dolphins win the Superbowl JOIN ME....

PAYTON20 · 10-19-11, 02:45 PM

Yes Rangers will win series.

Giants pitching was one of the better starting rotations I've seen in a long time. 2 lockdown aces in Lincecum and Cain. Then Sanchez and Bumgarner, their 3 and 4 were better than anyone in the Cards rotation besides Carp. Even if Cards win the first game (or even first 2 games), they're going to be in trouble going to Arlington with their 3 and 4 starters. Texas lineup too good and too hot.

Another big factor is that Cards don't really have a good bullpen. Texas gives Ron Washington the ability to do a lot with his bullpen with reliable long relievers like Ogando. Then in a tight game Feliz can be relied on to come in and fire up 100 and get a handful of crucial outs.

Don't overthink this one. Go big on Texas Series price

PAYTON20 · 10-19-11, 02:46 PM

And if the Cards win game 1 tonight, I'll just be buying more at a much better price

Lo-CalDallasBuKe · 10-19-11, 02:50 PM

Cards may take both of them at home...

What do people think about the o/u tonight?

Gonna be fun to watch if you guys get buried.

You live in D/FW. None of your insults or mocking laughter counts towards any Ranger loss.

GimpedMaster · 10-20-11, 12:08 AM

So satisfying to come back in here and prove the Texas homers wrong... The Cards are slightly less talented overall than the Rangers on paper, but TLR is an equalizer, as you saw tonight.

Did you even watch the game tonight? Did you see Motte FUKKING DESTROY 3 of the best Rangers hitters in a row? Did you see how our pen gave up ZERO runs to the 'mighty' Rangers bats?

Is reality sinking in for you yet? Are you realizing maybe you shouldn't bet the farm on the Rangers?

Do you know that Game 1 winners have won six of the last seven World Series and 11 of the last 13?

God, I want to come in here and lead by example and illustrate how a Cards fan doesn't have to talk smack in order to be victorious, but when some of you Rangers homers are BrahmaBull caliber retarded, you just have to get a verbal kick in the teeth now and then...

Anyone who is a Texas fan like me should start being realistic... we may win the series but it is definitely not going to be easy.

Jesus....get over yourself.

"TLR is an equalizer."

Are you giving Ranger homers a "verbal kick in the teeth"?

We're ONE game into a BEST OF SEVEN.

The Rangers lost by one run to the Cards ace, on the Cards homefield.

Wouldn't really classify that as a beatdown.

I realize you're trying to sound very intellectual and astute.....but you might think about not breaking out the anointing oil just yet.

I don't think you get it, you and other Rangers homers have written off the Cards before this thing began. And I'm not sitting here saying the Cards are going to sweep and already have this in the bag, but you don't seem to respect the Cardinals as a competitor, so I take a great pleasure in seeing them illustrate first-hand that this is going to be a battle.

Also, even after a game 1 wherein the Cards got to your hottest reliever for a game winning run, you make it sound like we won only due to the 'luck' or a combination of our 'only' decent starter plus homefield advantage... Your homerism is laughable.

PAYTON20 · 10-20-11, 03:15 PM

Motte gets 3 outs or whatever and suddenly the Cardinals have the best bullpen in the majors?? I will give you Motte, who has been a good closer as of late. But that's about it... what about in long relief when one of your starters has to be pulled early?

Just wait... wait until the Cardinals pen blows a lead

Listen, I don't know if anyone is saying they're untouchable, but they're damn hot right now and playing great. And yeah, at some point in this series, the Rangers will probably hammer the pen a couple times, but look at game 1, 3 more scoreless innings, their momentum is still alive from the NLCS.

keep using preconceived notions about Cards pen because of what they were early in the season, gl with that....

if you didnt notice Cards starters have been pulled early quite frequently in the playoffs. dont really need long relief when they have 8 guys to come in and do the job...

so far the only pen that gave up the winning hit has been tex pen...

motte has given up 1 hit in the 28 batters he has faced this postseason, id say "good" is a understatement...

Don't over think this. This team is winning the World Series. Period.

I have no doubts, and I will have no regrets. Join me, men. Rejoice in what Texas will bring you.

I want it.

Do you want it?

So how did you actually break it down?

Duh. By guaranteeing Texas to win the Series.

I would think you would appreciate the brevity in my exhaustive write-up!

antifoil · 10-20-11, 05:51 PM

if washington keeps getting out manged this series is over fast. this series will expose him.

the moves that will hurt him the worst is 1. keep andrus bunting. as good as the cardinals bullpen is right now, giving up early outs in the game is not a winning strategy. 2. in last night game the worst move he made was walking nick punto (haha nick punto) to get to a much better hitter in allen craig. cost them the game and the rangers are lucky they only got one run. 3. walking pujols every time first base is open will also get them beat quickly. the difference between him and holiday or berkman is not great enough to give out free baserunners.

Wait, Motte blew a save and got a loss? Can't be true. How did this happen? The best bullpen in the majors? The greatest closer in the history of the game? I simply cannot believe it

The Rangers won, almost entirely on the basis of a bloop single, and you're talking shit?

Cards will just be more determined and you haven't even seen the bats come to life yet...

I still maintain - Cards win this series.

Hate to say it but it's over for the cardinal

I had cards game 1 and rangers game 2

Betting on rangers rest of way. GL opie

I think the public knows texas is going to win by now. Line on texas outright winning the series went from 150 to 190 in about 8 hours overnight. And is still moving.
