I'm sticking with with Phillies-Angels in the WS, but I could definitely see your scenario playing out. Ben - Lee looked great in his debut with the Phils, huh?! He was strong the entire game... James – good predictions! I’m sticking with with Phillies-Angels in the WS, but I could definitely see your scenario playing out.

Ben – Lee looked great in his debut with the Phils, huh?! He was strong the entire game…

Last year they werent close to being the most well rounded team and they got hot and won it all - with Lee he's gonna eat up innings and protect that bullpen, so i dont see the dodgers or anybody else beating them. who knows though the cards beat the mets in the NL a couple years ago Anthony,

I love the Lee deal for the Phillies. You get an ace and not have to give up your top prospect? Wow. I think it's a great deal and it puts them in the driver's seat to win the NL. As I said in this article, I think the Dodgers are going to slump at some point and come up short. I like the Phillies in the NL, especially now with Lee in their rotation. Who do you like? Ben – I’ll probably miss most of these!

And when they do win again, the haters will bitch that they won because they spend so much. You can't have it both ways. Selig isn't the reason there is no cap because he doesn't run baseball. The union runs the game. What Selig is guilty of being afraid to flex his muscle in fear of another strike. The union knows this and they exploit it every chance they get.
