Roger Clemens will win it in 7 for HOUS

[Peebs]

MLB baseball has been out of this world this year!

HOUS is fired up!!!!

Hope he does, but really hope Hou wins next game.

Damn I love Baseball!

Yea, what a spectacular post season.

Whatever happens with the Bosox I will be very proud of them. Atleast they did not give up, unlike other years.

I think this year is special.

Clemens on Wed?

I would think Clemens starts game 6 on 3 days rest, just as Oswalt would do the same on Thursday if necessary. The Astros can't take any chances with anyone else.

Go Astros! (as a lifelong fan, not $ this time)

 

[Peebs]

sorry no, Munro goes game 6!

 

[hookem+]

what's your reasoning? Garner has already shown he'll go with them on short rest; and you gotta go with your horses. It's not the middle of the year anymore.

 

[Peebs]

haha I am just going with the rotation i see here on CBS sportsline, I agree with you I would get ROger out their tommorow too!

But I dont think he will be as effective, he threw a hell of a lot picthes last game!

Clemens and Oswalt would be ideal YESS!

How about Lidge, this kid is fantastic!

He is like whats his face with ANAheim that year "Francisco"

Not that it's a done deal, but they've got Clemens and Morris up at Olympic:

Do you think a pitcher like Roger Clemens has to be 100 percent to win?

Batters who face him are absolutely terrified. The majority of batters who face Clemens bat defensively.

I think Clemens will go for game 7 but putting him for 6 would not be a bad idea at all.

Called it here first!

Roger will start Game 7, cause I full expect STL to win tommorow night!

You guys think that taking STL series bet is a good idea with a chance for some hedge action in game 7?

STL +158 aint bad at all!

Well I am bringing this thread back to the top for good reason!

The baseball magic is alive and well in OCTOBER and with the YANKS losing 6-0 to Boston, I like my earlier call on HOUS going to the series even more now!

This is truly a hollywood script:

Boston potentially, being down 3-0 to the evil empire, goes on to win 4 straight and face their former ace Clemens who started his career in beantown.

Tommorows bet against STL with Roger on the mound will be my biggest bet of the Playoffs. Clemens at the moment is getting +112 against Suppan tommorow and I will gladly take that!

Boston may be breaking the curse and making history tonight by possibly getting to the World Series, but If they go on to face the Killer B's and Rocket Roger, their world series winless streak will live on.

Wouldnt it be so ironic if Roger and Co. keep the Sox from winning a WS!!

Hey a guy can dream right?!?!
