I think Pitching will be the "x" factor for the dodgers, but i do expect a competitive series.

I know you don't like Lidge but one thing is that PHI is 78-0 when leading after 8 innings this year which you have to say is impressive.

Lots of services handing out the LAD after handing out the Cubs in the first round...lmao.....talk about getting to the parade after most of the floats have gone by already......

GL!....nice job so far...

I like Lidge....but he tends to get in trouble. I wonder how he will handle pressure.... He flamed out in the 2005 postseason after a great year with Houston.

In Lidge’s past four playoff appearances, he is 0-3 with a blown save in his only save opportunity and a 9.64 ERA over 4 2/3 innings. The blown save came in the fifth game of the NLCS, when St. Louis’ Albert Pujols crushed a three-run homer off Lidge. He also lost the final game of the Chicago White Sox’s sweep in the World Series.

Crushed isn't the word. I think that ball Pujols hit would still be flying if it hadn't hit the facade above the bleachers in left field, lol

Tampa being dogged (series price) with the better season record and home field advantage looks like an insult to me, and i may hop on that one too. BOS did little more in the first round than take advantage of an LAA team who choked time and time again and constantly failed under pressure and with RISP.

Many seemed to think TB would be the team to fold under pressure, but they didn't, and i don't think they will in this round either. I think they're too young to know they're supposed to lay down for these veteran teams
