    Geez, the optimists sure are coming out of the woodwork this week!

    Naw not really pessimism, more realism. Daisuke loses his location in nearly every game he pitches for a short time. If they lose a game, and so long as he's the 3 or 4 guy, I think it'll be his start, and location will be what kills him, should he lose. Then again, Boston could just roll to a 4-0 rout.

    Yep, Daisuke really does pitch great. His peripheral stats show that. It's just that he's extremely prone to one or two big innings every game which just blows his ERA up and gives him losses.

    Well, since we HAVE to have Boston or New York in the Series, it seems.. Rockies win.. Don't care how many games.. Just don't want the Red Sox to win..

    I would have loved a Cleveland/Colorado Series..

    Well, this year should be interesting..

    I doubt that the Rockies will be swept, although I certainly wouldn't mind if they were. Between the layoff, the rain, first time in the series for most of them, and being in Boston, a first game loss was hardly surprising. Game 2 will be much more interesting.

    those factors would of been in play and as you say this next game should be interesting as I would imagine there would be a degree of determination to come back in the Rockies camp now
    You take it easy .. and have a nice day :cool:

    I doubt it. The Red Sox will hammer the Rockies again.
