Unfortunately he seems to be interested in playing for the Dodgers. On the other hand his baseball coach and his parents have reportedly advised him to remain in Japan.

We are fans of neither team, but ended up going for the Patriots because the Eagles fan base was, well -- let's just say the were green and the Patriots fanbase was more subdued! If the Yankees are fortunate enough to get to the WS and Philly is the opponent, I surely hope they've got armored cars or something. :) Joe from Long Island -

Jayson Werth is a very good hitter. He is not an .071 hitter. Basing someone's worth on a handful of postseason games is silly. I guess Mark Teixiera is a .100 hitter then. “Padilla threw all fastballs,and got tagged by a .071 #5 batter for 3 runs unbelievable.”

He’s an average pitcher, always has been. That’s why taking a small sample size of games in the postseason and suddenly declaring him an ace is silly. That being said, the Phillies have a perfect lineup. It will take a Herculean effort for either the Yankees or Angels to beat them in the Series. I'd say the same of our team, didn't we have the best record in baseball? rconn23 October 21st, 2009 at 8:34 pm
