[Fishercat]

Just a fun note, we are guaranteed ANOTHER unique World Series Champion, while three of the four teams involved have lost a World Series before.

And all four teams who were beaten had won a World Series before. We only have one repeat champion in the league (player controlled) in Florida.

Mission: How many days do we have off between Game 5 and Game 1.

[missionhockey21]

Just one.

[Fishercat]

A tentative rotation, should be good for at least the first two games.

1. Steven Carpenter
2. Wilfredo Reyes
3. Gary Fall
4. Leo Terrazas
5. Bobby Jenks
6. Wilfredo Reyes
7. Gary Fall

sending in changes soon

[Slyder]

On a side note. This will be the first year since 2011 (Baltimore) that the AL Representative has not come from the Central. Will the NL's string of dominance continue?

NL Central is trying to continue the same streak. I look forward to seeing how things break out.

[Fishercat]

No roster changes for Philly, at least for now. Whoo!

[Kingdom]

You're letting Vanslyke start?
[blink]

[Fishercat]

You're letting Vanslyke start?
[blink]

Basically, it's start VanSlyke or have all his starters go on three days rest. It's an interesting decision to make, both sides have their advantages.

[Halladay_is_God]

You're letting Vanslyke start?
[blink]

Vanslyke gave me 11 wins, a 4.31 ERA, 5 CG and near 200 IP during the season, he will be lights out or will get crushed, i can live with that and just like Fisher said, it's either Vanslyke or let my pitchers go on 3 day rest

besides Vanslyke better than Robert Anderson or Mike Burns

[Kingdom]

It's the playoffs, don't hold anything back. Besides, Vanslyke's ratings aren't encouraging.

[HafDawg2003]
