I guess that's a combination of the Phillies looking like the clear NL favorite and a certain ace pitcher.
But it's a crap shoot so I'm going Rangers!
I really like the 3 headed monster of Halladay, Hamels, and Oswalt for the Phillies. Those are three excellent pitchers, all on a roll.
Oswalt since joining the Phillies -- 1.74 ERA, .895 WHIP, 82 and 2/3rds IP with 83 K's
Hamels in the 2nd half -- 2.23 ERA, 1.003 WHIP, 96 and 2/3rds IP with 104 K's
And well, we all know a bit about that Doc fellow.
I can see the Giants matching up with them in an exciting NLDS - Lincecum, Cain, and Sanchez ain't too shabby either.
I don't like the staffs on any of the AL teams. Lee/Lewis/Wilson is good but not great (Lee is great). Sabathia, Petitte and Hughes? Liriano, Pavano and Baker (although Baker has been on a roll the last 2-3 weeks)?
Anyways, this is shaping up to be an exciting post season. Should be good times!
