The Yankees pitching is really godawful.

Now it's time for Cliff Lee to come in and do his thing.

Cliff Lee is not of this world. Getting more and more excited about Lee vs Halladay. Man, the Rangers could have been up 3-0...

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #844 on:** October 18, 2010, 11:37:43 PM »

That was just filthy. Even if the Rangers can only win one of the next three games, you gotta like their chances in a Game 7.

Yeah, take out that 8th inning in the first game and the Yankees have just looked dead. Rangers starters have looked really good in the series though.

It's amazing how Lincecum's 2 H, 14 K, 1 BB game is only the third-most impressive start this postseason.

What a tool.

On a different note, it's mind-boggling that the Phillies could have had Cliff Lee AND Roy Halladay this season.

Yeah, they're fucking distinguished mentally-challenged. As I already said, I want Lee to beat them SO FUCKING BAD

Halladay-Lee-Hamels would've been un-fucking-beatable.

That dude is fucking insane in the playoffs. I wonder how much the Yankees are gonna pay him this offseason. Of course, Boston could decide to spend some money too.

No chance he goes to the Mets; I mean, it's obvious he wants to play for a winner.

Man, I'm torn. Like, I totally WANT the Stanks to get bounced, but if they do and Cliff Lee does it to them, they will probably spend a billion dollars on him just to make sure they don't have to face him anymore.

Also, good to see the Phillies lose again.

Yeah, he only played his last five years in Arlington [of a career that went on forever], but he played there when I was a kid so he'll always be a Rangers guy to me.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #884 on:** October 23, 2010, 12:04:33 AM »

This series felt really good. I watched all three of those ALDS's in the 90's when the Rangers got crushed by the Yankees, then I had to watch A-Rod and Teixeira leave the Rangers and go to the Yankees, and in A-Rod's case, taking a huge chunk of the Ranger's money with him and leaving us with an owner that could barely afford to keep the lights on. But now, even if it's only one time in the entire history of the franchise, the Rangers finally stuck it to the Yankees and that feels great.
