Angels -1 1/2 vs Red Sox
This series will be baseball at its best!
On paper, the Angels should just destroy the Red Sox. As of right now, the Angels are arguably the most talented team in baseball. The Angels seem to do no wrong, but if the Red Sox are anything, it is resilient and unrelenting in the post season.
Angels’ manager Mike Scioscia has his boys playing better than ever! From K-Rod being the most dominant closer in baseball right now to Vladimir Guerrero playing like the AL MVP and Mark Teixeira being a gift from God for the offense. It is truly difficult to find fault when it comes to Angels’ baseball. They are just as solid as it comes.
Although the odds are against them, the Red Sox are no stranger to adversity. Whether it is injuries, players in slumps or Manny Ramirez’s of the world causing problems in the clubhouse, the Sox always seem to find a way to keep winning.
With Ramirez being traded to Los Angeles after an ugly divorce with the Sox and JD Drew playing in the Boston lineup still in question for the post season the Red Sox are still an incredibly talented team. The defending champs have it all from quality pitching, David Ortiz’s bat and a lineup full of role players and potential MVP candidates. No matter the circumstance it is hard to count the Red Sox out of contention.
The way the Angels have dominated everyone they have faced this season they should kick Terry Francona’s title defense to the curb with relative ease, but if any team were to end the Angels seemingly destine World Series campaign it is the Boston Red Sox. The boys from Boston can flip the switch at any given moment and turn into an unstoppable force causing all sorts of problems for the Angels.
This series should be a classic! Make sure you get the popcorn ready because these kinds of playoff series are what make baseball worth watching.
