Actually I am kinda puzzled by the Rockies...usually expansion teams only make the World Series when they can beat the Yankees. < grin> World Series tickets go on sale 22 October. I may try to snag one either for game 3, 4, or 5.

The Yankees are out of it....Cleveland won it.
Don't blame Torre. Steinbrenner hired all that high priced box office draw talent which fizzled and popped.
Torre could have fielded a better team with a few vets and recruits from the farm leagues.
