Cardinals. I have every confidence that La Russa will find a way to lose. He had to go up against Roger Craig to get his only Series win when he had the best team on paper in the Series 3 years running. Lasorda managed circles around him in 1988.
Besides--I watch a lot of NL ball here in NY. You guys don't want to have to face Lidge down a run in the ninth. He's got a splitter that makes Mariano's look like a barroom softball league lob, when he's on. Maybe Garner will wear his arm down to a dishrag before the game's over tonite.
Your guys hit Clemens well, but you'd only get to face him twice at most, and have to go to a game 7 to get him in Fenway.
