Looks like this is what's going to be
Game One: LOWE (LAD)@ HAMESLS (PHILLY)
Game Two: BILLINGSLEY@ MYERS
Game Three: MOYER@ KURODA
Game Four: Blanton @ kershaw
interesting series....
i believe there is a ton of value in LAD right now, they did sweep the cubs (its not a shock of the world kinda thing but it is a one hell of an upset) and if they can beat the cubs i think they can also beat the phillies
if we look at advantages:
Batting certaily goes to LAD, they are batting and hitting really really well and manny is mr playoffs... and the dodgers team is deep... they haven't really used nomar, kent, pierre and andrew jones (did i say andru jones?, nevermind)... phillies are no pushovers but i really believe that dodgers have the hotter bats right now
Pitching: Phillies easily... they have a very slight advantage at starting pitching especially at the blanton-kershaw matchup (if it happens)... starting pitching is really a close call.... but we look at the bullpen, this is where phillies have they real advantage.... im sure everybody will take linge over broxton/saito/park anytime of the day... the key for the dodgers' pitchers is basically innings and lasting, they are in deep trouble if the starter leaves early....
tough call but i really believe that dodgers have definitely good value
