Great catch JMQ! I am kind of shocked. Maybe he wants to split up the left-handers (Lee/Hamels)?jmq wrote:Story broke this morning on Philly radio:
“Phillies manager Charlie Manuel told a Philadelphia radio station Tuesday morning that Pedro Martinez will start Game 2 of the World Series against the Yankees on Thursday at Yankee Stadium. Cole Hamels will start Game 3 in Philadelphia, Manuel told WPHT Radio. “

Jeez, should the Yankees even show up? Only A-Rod would be worthy of starting for the Phils and now this defensive analysis absolutely kills them:

Chase Utley is a bad man.soxfan22 wrote:
Second Base
Chase Utley
BA .282, HR 31, RBI 93, Runs 112, SB 23
Robinson Cano
BA .320, HR 25, RBI 85, Runs 103
Looks like Cano has emerged from his slumber and started to become the player that Michael Kay has been drooling over for three years. I still take Pedroia over him, but I am a homer. And Pedroia is the better baseball player...Unfortunately, he's playing golf.
Utley is the best offensive second baseman in the game, and he is not prone to mental lapses as is Cano. No doubt in my mind, give me Utley.

> Burnett is one of those guys who has some impressive stats like opponent BA but cannot limit the damage when he starts to have a bad inning. He nevers gets bled to death with a run here, a run there - always gets blown up with a 3+ run inning that tend to include bounced pitches and hit batters. If he can somehow avoid that they have a good chance against Pedro. Does Posada catch him tonite?

> At this point, Swisher is an automatic out.
> Now the entire Yank bullpen sans Mariano has gone flaky. Not good, and not at all like the regular season.
