The 2009 Good Phight World Series Prediction Contest

by David S. Cohen on Oct 28, 2009 11:29 AM EDT

Hey, let's make this an annual ritual. Once again, we're getting ready for Game 1 of the World Series. A rematch of the 1950 Series and a matchup between the two largest East Coast cities. Jimmy Rollins is being Jimmy Rollins, and New York Yankees fans are being New York Yankees fans. Should be a great series.

And, here we're once again offering you a chance to turn your opinion about the series into Phillies merchandise with The 2009 Good Phight World Series Prediction Contest.

We're using the same basic format as last year. Each of the items below is worth 1 point, except for the ultimate series prediction which is worth 3 points. The winner is the entrant who gets the most points (ties are decided by random drawing). The winner will receive one Phillies knit hat and one Phillies 2009 t-shirt (either NL champs or World Series champs).

All items are for the World Series only.

Cliff Lee wins:
Ryan Howard home runs:
Shane Victorino and Jimmy Rollins stolen bases (combined total):
Eric Bruntlett plate appearances:
Phillies starting pitcher innings not by Cliff Lee or Pedro Martinez:
Brett Myers innings pitched:
Jimmy Rollins walks:
Brad Lidge saves:
Alex Rodriguez hits with runners in scoring position:
Mariano Rivera runs allowed:
World Series outcome (victor and # of games):

Good luck!!

Damn dude… That’s a pretty fatalistic outlook.

i’m hoping the hat and tshirt will make this a little less depressing if it actually happens.

dude, I’d take the hat and shirt to Goodwill if that actually happens. That’s like blood money.

alrighty then

   2. Ryan Howard home runs – 2
   3. Shane Victorino and Jimmy Rollins stolen bases (combined total) – 1
   4. Eric Bruntlett plate appearances – 0
   5. Phillies starting pitcher innings not by Cliff Lee or Pedro Martinez – 18
   6. Brett Myers innings pitched – 3
   7. Jimmy Rollins walks – 0
   8. Brad Lidge saves – 1
   9. Alex Rodriguez hits with runners in scoring position – 3
  10. Mariano Rivera runs allowed – 0
  11. World Series outcome (victor and # of games) – yankees in 6 (shudder)

And for what the heck, I will make an MVP one, A Fraud

I hate hate HATE picking the yankees, but if their starters last 7 or 8 innings, and hand the ball directly to Mo Rivera, the Phillies don’t have a chance. However, if the Phillies can get to their bullpen before Rivera, the Phillies have a shot. Then what Phillies bullpen will show up, Lidge this year has been able to save a few games in a row and then blow some (like at a 3:1 ratio almost – please correct if wrong), and I am just waiting for him to implode.

Keys to series – Yankees: Teix, Phillies: Jimmy Rollins

I'm pulling for you guys but...

Rivera letting up 4 runs? Rivera has let up a total of 4 earned runs since 2002! Thats over a 32 game stretch.

If it comes down to Mo, the Yankees win

by ScottAZ on Oct 28, 2009 12:50 PM EDT up reply actions

Man, but wouldn’t it be sweet to pin two losses on Rivera and two losses on C.C.? That would be the perfect outcome.

by taco pal on Oct 28, 2009 12:55 PM EDT up reply actions

re

Two losses on CC I can see easily. Until this year he was a post season flop.

You can get to the Yankees pen early. Coke, Robertson, Aceves, Marte isn’t going to scare anyone. They are probably on the same level as what the Dodgers had out of the pen, outside of the great equalizer of course in Mo.

I would NEVER want to get in a situation in which you are down a run in the 8th inning. The game is as good as over, but my Dbacks did it to him in 2001 (Luis Gonzalez walkoff blooper) so maybe it can happen every ten years or so

3 wins

Love that positive thinking. I’m also going with Phillies in 7, just because that would make for the best Series I could imagine.
Last pitcher to win three games in a Series was Randy Johnson in 2001, two starts and the relief win in game 7. Mickey Lolich did it out of the two-spot (games 2/5/7) in 1968; Bob Gibson did it in games 1/4/7 in 1967; and Lew Burdette did the same as Lolich (2/5/7) even though Warren Spahn hadn’t pitched since game 4. I’m not sure, but I think Gibson is the only pitcher to win three times in a best-of-7-game series in the 1-4-7 sequence. It would be nice to see Cliff Lee do the same.
