If the Braves make it that far. Tho I hate the d-backs and the braves, braves are still at the bottom of my list.

[edit]But still not as hated as the Giants, of course.[/edit]

Once you make the playoffs you don't choke if you lose

I beg to differ. Remember that team from Seattle last year?

No game six, no game six, no game six, no game six. :)

Yeah they were pretty pathetic. The Angels are a better team than the M's were last year despite the M's regular season record. I doubt they will do the "Pinella meltdown" like the M's did against the Yanks

The angels have one of the best records agents the yanks in the last 3 years. I think The Angels will advance to the ALCS

I addition, the Yanks don't seem to be as good as they were a year ago. Their Pitchers are more hittable and they don't have the leadership of O'Niel and Martinez.

I'll give u $5 for them

Uh, no.

Yeah, the Angels do play the Yanks quite well. When I went and saw them play during the regular season the Angels were at least as good as the Yanks IMHO.

I agree that the starting pitching is not as strong as it once was, but watch out for the bullpen! Duque and Weaver as the long men!! BTW, I'd take Giambi ANY DAY OF ANY YEAR instead of Tino. He was great here for us, but his numbers ain't even close. Oneill VS. Mondesi is debatable.

O' Neill vs. Mondesi is no contest in my opinion. The Dodgers were smart to get rid of Mondesi as were the Blue Jays. I guess the Yanks picked him up cause he was the best option at the time.

When the Yanks played in Anaheim I would say the crown was about 60/40 Angels. All of the Yankee players were cheered except for Mondesi. He is a very overrated player IMHO. Good throwing arm, good/decent defense but still undisciplined at the plate.

The angels have a better bullpen then the yanks
