Both teams have solid pitching though Boston has the better pen. The big difference here is the Angels' lack of power. They can manufacture runs but Boston hitters will overpower the Angels starters while the Angel lineup can be largely kept in check, unless Eric Gagne is in the game.
Also, JD Drew has been playing well lately which either means the Red Sox will win or the apocalypse is coming. Maybe both.

Scary as it sounds, as a Yankee fan I want the Sox to win. The Yanks match up better against the Sox, and the Angels just seem to have the Yankee's number the last 5 or 6 years.

I dunno about this one. On one hand the Angels have been rotten in Boston this season, but on the other hand Boston's due for a letdown this season. I'll take the Sox in 5.

Due for a letdown?

They've been on cruise control since the All-Star Break really, they struggled letting the Yankees get to within 2 games of them. I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say a letdown is possible.

Well, it's looking pretty good for the Sox. I wouldn't be surprised to see them sweep the series, or at least take it in 4.
