To think about a sweep. I mean nothing’s impossible, but this is probably the best team the Angels have had including the one that won the World Series. They don’t have the classic Angels bullpen, which plays heavily in our advantage, but they have a better rotation than they’ve had before with the addition of Kazmir and they have a much better offense than the team that beat us in ‘05. That being said we’re a lot better too and it should be a pretty epic series. I say Yankees in 6.

But I don`t think it matters what his name is,when the Yankees are done with him he may want to change his name to Washburn

At the very least, one of their starters is bound to have an A-plus game, or one of their hitters will drive in a bunch of runs, or our bullpen will give up a bloop hit at the wrong time. Or one of a thousand other things. Or they just plain beat us. I think we’ll win, but it’ll take six.

the angels are a very good team and have been for the last decade or so. their manager is in the top tier with guys like larussa, torre, cox, pinella etc. they also are playing with a chip on their soldier 1. to honor adenhard who was a beloved teamate, and 2. the finally destroyed the bo sox which no one thought they could do. and you are wrong about the angles no having a “guy” like DJ. yes DJ is fantastic but the angles has their own go to guys. hunter has been great and plays with a lot of passion. vlad is back, figgins is clutch, morales is a monster, abreu wants revenge etc. and are u serious about Lackey? CC against Lackey will be great and Lackey has good postseason exp. Look for a 6 or 7 game series fo sho

If we win the first two games, I think there is a good chance we can sweep. With Andy pitching game three against either Kasmir, Saunders, or Satana I like our chances of winning that game also, he`s a proven big game winner. Game four would be the Angels fighting for their life and with the depth of our bullpen I don`t think CPR will help
