RED SOX over INDIANS in 6. RED SOX over D-BACKS in 5.?

The RED SOX have an edge over both teams (I'm assuming AZ over CO because of these same reasons) in the 3 MAJOR things that always win in the post season:

1) STARTING PITCHING

2) CLOSER

3) CLUTCH HITTING

The RED SOX have performed better in all catagories this year over all three teams left in the post season.

Agree or disagree? Why?

    Sox in 7 over the Indians, Cleveland have been flying under the radar all season. Then I think Rockies over D-Backs because the Rockies run the momentuim into this series and they win in 6. But the Sox are too good for the Rockies and sweep them in the World Series

    Disagree. The Indians and Red Sox both have great starting pitching, closing, and clutch hitting. Why else would they both have the same record? Think about that for a second.

    ALCS: Indians in 6

    NLDS: Diamondbacks in 7

    World Series: Indians in 5

    I'll take the D-Back's side.

    I think the only thing Boston has the clear advantage in is starting pitching. Arizona has a great closer, who has been dominant all year and led the NL in saves so I don't think Boston has the clear edge there. And as for clutch hitting the D-Backs have thrived on clutch hitting, how else did they win 90 games with a negative run differential? By hitting in the clutch and winning close games, I remember a lot of walk-offs this year.
