Pitching pitching pitching.
And small ball or big ball.

1. Pitching AND defense
Can't have one without the other.

I don't see the White Sox going to the Series, though - too much not getting on base for a team that relies on the long ball the way they do. That didn't bite them in the series against the Red Sox in part because they had one big inning in game #2, and were lucky enough to have the hardest hit balls of the night be right in the path of the black-and-white clad defenders.

A seven game series will be a different story, IMO.

2. From where I sit
The Angels are going to the World Series. The Angels have good starting pitching, a great bullpen and one of the fastest teams on the basepaths.

3. That could happen.
I've got the winner of Yanks-Angels going to the Series. The only question I have about LA/Anaheim is whether somebody steps up alongside Vlad offensively. One more hot bat over a 7-game series can see a team through.

4. I agree
I also think the Angles will win the WS, even though i'm a huge Yankees' fan, i just don't have the confidence in them, this year. Their pen sucks, and almost no one is clutch, anymore.
At least we, lasted longer the Boston.
