Angels have the best overall player in baseball. It's going to be ugly.

Hamels retired the first 14 batters and the Phillies batted around in the third en route to the franchise's first post-season win since 1993, a 3-0 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers in Game 1 of the National League Division Series. | Hamels leads Phillies to Game 1 win

And the Cubbies don't exactly have history on their side, Echo. Although I'd be inclined to be a fan should the Phils get ousted. Unless it's by the Cubs, of course.
I'm pulling for TB, too. They really don't have any business being as good as they ended up. Good for them.

Well, they said the same thing about the Red Sox a few years ago, remember?
I honestly think this is the CUBS year, but hope springs eternal and all that....
TB is a good story, and if for some reason..........nah, not even going to say it!

Rep Power: 13 | | | Red Sox have beaten the Angels in 9 straight postseason series.
Red Sox have Jon Lester, Dice-K, and Josh Beckett going the first three games.
Those are three of the best pitchers in the MLB.
