Re: I still like the Angels in 6
Confidence and momentum are only as good as your next day's starting pitching. Who would have had more confidence and momentum than the Yankees last year after winning games 4 and 5 with dramatic 2-out 2-run home runs to tie each game, then prevailing in extra innings? But then they got Johnson and Schilling and couldn't score enough to win. (This is of course an oversimplification, they had game 7 won until they gave it away in the field in the 9th inning.)
Also, there's a day off and the Angels will be home.
But there aren't many pitchers I'd prefer less than Appier in a big game. I think he'll get racked. (He'll probably pitch a perfect game now that I've said this.)
Giants in six, like I've been saying all along.
