The first time in San Francisco's history...I can't wait to see The Freak pitching.

I think the Giants can definitely go back to the World Series. Hopefully Zito isn't gone for too long for you guys.

Well being a diehard CUBS fan (placing double paper bag over head)...I can certainly predict with 100% accuracy that their streak of not winning the World Series since 1908 is in no danger on ending this year...

..in fact if they win more than 70 games that would be a major miracle.

The White SOX have a pretty good team and that Adam Dunn guy they picked up just might be enough to get them past the Twins for the division title.

My dad told me in 1970 that the CUBS would never win in his lifetime or mine...may he rest in peace...but dammit I think he may be right!

We will build golf courses on Mars before the CUBS win the World Series!

2003 was your chance. I thought for sure we were headed to a Cubs/Red Sox World Series. I still have a Mark Prior t-shirt that I bought outside of Wrigley on a trip to Chicago that year.

Now you had to go there...and please don't ever come to Chicago again...you're bad luck...lol

Those clowns were up 3 games to 1 and leading 3-0 needing only 5 outs to get to the World Series when all Bartman broke loose!

I thought Dusty Baker was gonna commit suicide after that game...I almost did...lol

Bartman will naturally be the goat but if Alex Gonzalez (who I was a fan of from my days living in Toronto) doesn't boot the ball.....

Bartman is the convenient excuse. They had more than enough chances to still win that game, as well as game 7.

I legitimately feel bad for Bartman. All of us would have done the exact same thing if we were in his position.

Have you been watching MLB Network's countdown of the 20 best games in the last twenty years I believe. The Bartman game was number 7. They actually did a great job with it. It airs again this week.

Something says you are a Sox fan.........

I want to know, what exactly do the Red Sox have that the Yankees don't?

For all the consternation about the Yankee rotation, do you think Beckett, Dice-K and Lackey are going to all pitch great, considering last season's performance? Beckett and Burnett, numerically are the same pitcher over the course of a season. Lackey is not an ace. He's a battler, and pitching at Fenway will surely inflate your ERA. Dice-K? Gimme a break. I'd take Nova over him anyday.

If you had to pick a bullpen, would you take:

A)Chamberlain, Feliciano, Soriano, and Rivera?

OR

B)Wheeler, Jenks, Bard, and Papelbon?

I know which one I'd pick.

The lineups are pretty even, given that the Sox in essence traded Victor Martinez and Adrien Beltre for Carl Crawford and Adrien Gonzalez. Position for position, where do the Sox beat the Yankees, and will that overcompensate for the Yankee advantages over their Sox counterparts?

    No, I am not a Red Sox fan. I'm an Angel fan.

    Feliciano is hurt already. That was one hell of a risky signing given how much he pitched the last few years. Joba has been average at best since his initial burst to the scenes.

    I like the Red Sox rotation a lot better then the Yankees.
