Congrats to the Phillies. Especially Jamie Moyer.
You can give a partial thanks to Joe Maddon for making some really bad decisions in this 3-inning game.
I'm so glad the National League won.
The MVP is for the entire series.Quote:

It will probably either be the Flyin Hawaiin or Lidge.
They also would not have won this game if not for Pat Burrell doubling to lead off the inning. Or Cole Hamels holding the Rays to 2 runs in 6 innings. Or Joe Maddon making a handful of poor tactical decisions. Or Brad Lidge closing out the game. Or Shane Victorino driving in 2 runs.Quote:

Also congratulations to Pat Gillick, whose retiring this Friday. Great way to go out.
Wow i saw the Cardinals taking it all over the Tigers on opening day but WOW Rays-Phillies
its Hamels
hamels is the mvp!!
Cole Hamels... bad choice, man... bad choice
Cole Hamels, deservingly, gets the MVP award. Good decision.
I want that Car he's getting:D
The guy threw 13 innings, and allowed just 4 runs, and was instrumental in 2 of the 4 wins. How is that a bad choice?Quote:

Because he wasn't instrumental in then winning the decisive game. That's all that matters IMO...Quote:

I have to agree with MetsGuy on this one. Hamels only won 1 game, only pitched in two, and certainly at least one of the everyday players had a bigger impact on the World Series as a whole. Ryan Howard won two games almost by himself, at least equalling Hamel's two games he contributed in.
No way would I have voted for Hamel's. His overall postseason stats interfered with the voters judgement, IMO, since this was supposed to be based only on the WS.
I stayed up till 3 AM for THAT? Oh well...when do pitchers and catchers report?
Congrats to the Phillies fans... and to Pat Gillick, Jamie Moyer, etc.
I didn't know Cole Hamels had such a high voice.
ARE YOU SERIOUS? Did you happen to...I don't know...watch the decisive game?Quote:

He didn't get a "win" today because the pitcher after him gave up a home run. That's his fault?Quote:

13 innings, 4 runs. That's great.Quote:

If the rain didn't stop the game, and Hamels continued pitching for one inning (he probably would've gone more), and thus was 2-0, would you guys be saying he shouldn't be the MVP?
More importantly we don't have to listen to McCarver for several months
Everyone, make sure to bid on official 2008 World Series Game 5 RAIN!
No, not his fault, but that means the game was decided after he was no longer a factor. It's not his fault, but it's not to his credit either.Quote:

Outside of Game 4, he was 3 for 17 with 9 strikeouts.
Hamels was in line to get the win until a reliever let the game be tied. That is not Hamels fault, and that also doesn't erase the 6 innings of 2 run ball that Hamels pitched in the first part of the game, which were absolutely instrumental in the win.Quote:

He's talking about Ryan Howard...Quote:
