of the teams in contention, here's some World Series matches I would like to see:

Reds/A's
Pirates/Orioles
Nats/Rays
Dodgers/Angels (although I hate natural rivalries played in the WS)
Braves/Yankees
anyone beat the Rangers again. lol

[blimpcityhero11]

For some reason, I'd love to see the Nats and Yanks.

Nats/Yanks would be awesome for sure.

Gotta agree with this.

I'd actually just be excited to see an ALCS between Baltimore and Oakland, if that's possible.

Dempster would have done fine in the National League. First thing I thought when I saw him go to the Rangers was: "He's going to get shelled"

Welp, didn't realise there were so many jealous fans here. Probably should find somewhere else to post if the Rangers keep up their August form.

If Jeter's skills were at the level of Michael Young's and he acted the way Young has, I'd be annoyed.

I suppose the NL East would be a better fit. But he was due to comeback down to earth. Guy was pitching way over his head this season. His career numbers aren't that impressive.

[SamuelJLast]

Don't get me wrong, I completely respect everything Young has done for the Rangers. However, he's not performing well enough this year. Should his past results and meaning to the franchise allow him to be untouchable?

Not really getting why people are actively rooting for the Rangers to lose in the WS again...

I don't think it's anything against the Rangers specifically, people just think it's funny when you have that Buffalo Bills type franchise that keeps getting there and losing.

Because it's funny.

Actually. Being an Atlanta fan, I can sympathize with them. Making it to the WS and losing isn't fun.
