You're League Championship Series matchups (that's semi-finals in real money) .................

Tigers v Rangers

Brewers v Cardinals

The fifth game of the Cardinals v Phillies was a pitching classic, with Chris Carpenter pitching a complete game, 1-0 shut out against Doc Halladay.

The Brewers coughed up a lead in the ninth but won it in the tenth thanks to an RBI from "T Plush"

Must say I have immensely enjoyed the playoffs so far.

Me too TWR, but as the NL will be represented by the Cards or Brewers from the central league and me being a cub fan and all I have to go for the Tigers. It is petty but I can't support either although having an NL team win it would be nice but come on Detroit.

If Puggles keeps playing like he did yesterday, Milwaukee are done for.

Puggles, I hope it isn't obvious?

You'd prefer Poo-Holes ?

In other news, its looking more and more likely that Theo Epstein will be leaving the Red Sox to join the Cubs.

This is a great more for him in my opinion. If he fails in Chicago, he's done no worse than anyone else in the past 103 years. However, if Theo did bring a title to the North Side he's go down as the greatest Baseball Executive ever.

Hoo-ray to this news, I just hope he doesn't go for the multi year big contracts but saying that anything is better than Hendry. Good news!

What's your gut feeling on what the Sox will do in terms of GM and manager?

Assuming that Martin O'Neil doesn't want the job.......................

The GM will be an inside promotion of Ben Cherrington. He stood in for Theo at recent meetings and was also Co-GM during Theo's "Gorilla Suit" sabbatical a few years back.

As for Manager, I really haven't got a clue.

Joe Maddon?   Not sure he would want it though.

I have never seen a city turn on players and managers the way the city of Boston does.

I have said this many times throughout the years. 

This latest Francona bash session is absurd.  Purely classless of the media in Boston.

Also, David Ortiz, hate to break the news to you, but the Yankees don't want you.



*Also, who wants to bet that if Ortiz leaves the sox, that the fact that he did steroids becomes news again? Once he isn't under the protection of MLB's Golden Team, I bet people will suddenly want answers...
