With his reputation preceding him, playing at home, with the spotlight on and free agency pending one would have to think Cliff Lee will pitch the Rangers back to Game Six in San Fransisco tonight. Still as I look forward to the game I have to say I hope San Fransisco finishes.
Why? Simply put I think it would be good for baseball for Tim Linscuem SIC to be the best pitcher in the series. Going forward Lee will have his millions but Tim the Freak could be a great front line baseball figure.
His velocity dipped this year. One hopes that he does not with his small frame suffer the shortened career arc once feared for him.
The rest of the Giants as I have wrote before are veterans such as Huff, Uribe, Renteria, Sanchez, and Pat Burrell and super Rookie Buster Posey are a team that does not look like a World Series winner but at times when the moon is right that is not a disqualifier from winning.
This would appear to be the case this year.
Go Giants
