Hey Jeff,

Probably 5. You know how fickle Mo can be, the Rockies forgot how to lose and then.....wait.

Sox have the momentum now I think.

You didn't reallllly think I was just gonna walk away and not bug you a little did you? Best, Jimbo

Hey Jim,

Sports is a weird thing. At any given time, most any team can beat any other team. Doesn't mean they will, but the potential is there. Mistakes, subpar performance, momentum, nerves, lack of confidence - all sorts of things come into play. I thought for sure Cleveland would make a much better showing than they did, but perhaps I expected too much from Sabathia and Carmona, eh? Byrd has way more experience than both of them combined which probably explains why he was more effective than they were.

It's really hard to say who will take the series. At this point, I think it has to be about momentum more than anything else. But you never know. The 04 Cardinals looked pretty darned invincible, but it became a foregone conclusion that they weren't going anywhere after a couple games.

Catch you later. Normalcy is returning soon.
