Way to go Jim Thome!!!! My favorite player of all time!

Now, go out, hit a homer in every game against the D-Rays, but hopefully the White Sox lose the series!

Go Tampa Bay!!!!

Twins season ended last night.

I coach with a guy who used to be a national cross checker for the Angels, wears a world series ring and still works as a player agent. He was asked last night if the Rays have a legit chance, his answer was an immediate yes.

National cross Checker? I'm clueless

Go Sox

heyboer - the guy investigates alleged instances of cross dressers in the angels organization nationally.

Well, at least somebody has job security!

Fall baseball is always fun.

This year I got a couple of local boys to watch. Thome is from where I live now, and Ben Zobrist grew up in the same town where I grew up.

That always makes it a little more fun to watch.

Angels are taking it all the way......

I wouldn't mind a freeway series in SoCal.

Doesn't take an insider to see their resilience and talent CMJ.
My answer is also "an immediate yes"... with limited baseball background

BillyB, I have always been a Thome fan. If somehow the White Sox beat the Rays (notice no “D” in Rays )... I may be jumping on the Sox bandwagon through it all

There is nothing like October baseball!
Especially when your local team is unbelievable, there are some sentimental favorite in the mix ... and the Yankees are watching from home

While we're a Sox family, we still root for the Cubs to do good, and nothing would be cooler than a "Black and Blue" World Series between the 2 Chitown teams...

T-Squared, if you are a Sox family that wishes the Cubs well... you are Cubs fans. Sorry you can't root for both. Ever met a Mets fan that roots for the Yankees? I don't think so!

You don't have to worry about a Second City series, though. Sox are not very good and the Cubs will choke.

Think LAA versus Philly or Tampa vs Philly. Maybe the Cubs will get to the World Series, but I'd be shocked if they won it. White Sox don't stand a chance.

Of course the Angels just had to lose their first game, just trying to make me look bad! Ah heck, I don't care. I just want the the team from St. Petersburg to win it all!
