" We all know the history here. The Angels are the only team with a winning record against the Yankees since 1996. They haven't lost the season series to the Yankees since 2003. They eliminated the Yankees in the first round -- 02 in 05. Well they're a little bit of a difference right now in both teams actually quite a bit of a difference. And that is going to tell the whole story in the American League Championship Series. The Yankees in particular are different. -- rotation much stronger than in the past sabathia Burnett had. Here's a question about the game four starter but guess what it might be CC sabathia on three days' rest. He that would be available for game seven on normal rest through the off -- extra off day in this series. Burnett got his first postseason start out of the way against Minnesota. And Pettit of course is -- of great post season warrior. The angels' rotation also is very accurate goes for deep with the lack you Weaver and Kazmir and Saunders. Put the ball and Yankees hold -- now advantage. It starts at the close. Mario Rivera versus Bryant went days. But even the setup Cruz well that means to the Yankees too especially with Phil Hughes and Joba Chamberlain both now in Yankee bullpen. Offensively these two teams are very close Yankees were first in the majors in runs scored this season the Angels were second. In this series the Angels obviously need to get Chone -- going it was all for twelve against Boston. But Bobby Abreu we've seen his impact it's been huge on this line. Kendry Morales we're going to see America is going to see what this guy can do on each state. The Yankees though simply have more difference makers -- team changes in their lineup. Of course it starts with Iraq. Tremendous series against Minnesota for -- big numbers against the Angels this season during the regular season. I fully expect him to stay hot in this series. And then there's Teixeira and Jeter and Matsui and the rest. Yankees offense is going to be too difficult for the Angels to hold down particularly that angels' bullpen. So what we have here are two very evenly matched teams. But the Yankees are a better team. Going to go with the Yankees. In six."
