Jimmy Rollins predicts Phils win in 5...lol

[leatherman]

Didn't Benny Agbayani predict a 5 game series win for the Mets in 2000 over the Yankees?

Like Witmer said, Rollins has a history of running his mouth and backing it up. Rollins is far more than a .250 hitter.

One thing I am really excited about for this World Series: the defense.

The Phillies had the 2nd fewest errors in the NL, and the Yankees had the 5th fewest errors in the AL (plus that record streak of 18 errorless games this year).

What is the plan for Matsui for games 3, 4, and 5?

Well he is an idiot for saying what he thought.

If that's the case, then so are you.

Thanks for quoting that, I knew I forgot to address something in my post.

There is a difference when a fan talks trash and when a player does.

 

[Bornagaincollector]

I don't think anybody wins this series in 5,it will go 6 or 7 in my opinion.

He'll sit I'm sure. They can go Jeter-Damon-Teixeira-Rodriguez-Posada-Cano-Swisher-Melky-Pitcher

Ever watch football?

Trash talk is a tool used to get into the heads of opposing players. Seeing Rollins' quote probably will get to a few Yankee players. Hell, look what it did to you.

Rollins and Howard have more MVP's then Tex and Jeter (Oh wait these 2 have none)

ok? So? A-Rod has 3 and no WS...Jeter has 4 rings. Which do you think a player would have?

Um, a WS, which Rollins and Howard have. So let's play that game, 3 best hitters, and pitcher with most on resume

Tex- No WS, No MVP
Arod- No WS, 3 MVP (Proven Steroid User)
Jeter- 4 WS, No MVP
Pettite- 4 WS, No CY Young (Proven HGH user)

Rollins- 1 WS, 1 MVP
Howard 1 WS, 1 MVP
Utley- 1 WS, No MVP
Pedro- 1 WS, 3 CY Youngs

Despite the fact that on the Yanks side you have great players, On the Phils side is almost just as good. I'd rather have the phils guys on my team

Its too bad all of that means NOTHING in this series.

OP: You seriously need to take a chill pill. It's hilarious that you get so up in arms about something an athlete said while being asked a question about his team.

+1,000,000

and you wonder why everyone hates Yankees fans

What does past WS wins or MVP awards have to do with this coming WS?

Coming from a Cubs fan? :lol:

Everyone needs to stop with all of the bickering. Let them play before we decide who's going to win the World Series.

Thank you

 

[Mr.Whipple]

I am a Yankee fan and I really think the Phillies can beat them...They perform well under pressure and thats key...Play as a team and no one player is held over the next...1st NL team since the Big Red Machine to appear in back to back WS...I wouldnt count the Phillies out just yet, I wouldnt count them out till the series is over with...

My comparision was which player is better now. Philly fans feel ok with Pedro pitching game 2?

If you are going on career awards, the Yankees would shame the Phillies.

 

[BowmanChromeAddict]

We're still 28 hours away from an actual baseball game and we've got everyone's blood boiling already. I'm alright with some trash-talking, but lets try to keep it rational. We won't know who's #1 till Sunday night at the earliest, so let's all take a breather for a minute.

 

[andyduke86]

What, did you expect J-Roll to pick the Yankees in 5?
