Houston will upset St. Louis and win the pennant

Gemmy10

That is what I am hoping for also....a Yankees-Clemens showdown.

I am still hoping for the Sox vs Houston where the photos from the game you went to?

Carnack - Astros/Yanks would be very interesting considering the Clemens interaction.

Gemmy10

Oh, well. 1 out of 2 series predictions ain't bad. I still think Houston will come back with Clemens and Oswalt pitching.

No way. Cards in 5. Oswalt will get the 'Stros lone win.

Axtell

So 1/2 gemmy...basically the same odds as a coin flip?

Damn you are good.

You should have deep concerns. If Oswalt wins today, both Clemens and Oswalt will comeback on 3 days rest, and each win another game. Houston in 7, perhaps?

Nah, I'm not so sure that the series won't return to St. Louis anymore, but if we come home 3-2, all will be well. I'd even like our chances coming home down 2-3. The team's been great at home so far this postseason.

when is the last time a pitcher has ever come back on 2 days rest? do you know anything about baseball?

It was a typo. I meant 3 days rest. I edited my original post. I looked at the schedule. Unless there is an extra day off because of a rainout, only Clemens can comeback on 3 days rest.

Pitchers on 3 days rest nearly always (90%+) get rocked.

ok, my bad. i didn't honestly think you would recommend pitching anyone on 2 days rest

Gemmy10

Actually I miscalculated. Both Clemens and Oswalt can pitch on 3 days rest because there is a day off.

I'm actually torn as to who I want in the NL. I'm a big Clemens fan, but I'm also a big Larry Walker fan. So I guess I'm rooting more for the Cardinals since Clemens has a ring and Walker doesn't. Then again, Clemens against the Yankees, or even the Red Sox (yeah right ) would be exciting


I'm just so confused

I may be wrong, but I believe Bob Gibson was the last to pitch on 2 days rest in the post season.
