Colorado has 5 really dangerous hitters: Helton, Hawpe, Atkins, Tulowitzki, and the best hitter in the NL Matt Holliday. Matsui and Taverez have really good speed on the basepaths to add to their offensive attack. In addition they have by far the best defense in baseball and Coors Field is a strong home field advantage. They could very well win this series, but they won't. The Sox's patient hitters are going to wear out Colorado's young and inexperienced pitchers. Beckett is better then anyone the Rockies can throw out there. But here is where I think the series will turn. I would not be surprised if the sox where down going into game 4. I forsee Lester coming up big. (not just because of sentimental reasons) Lester seemed on the last time he was on the mound and the Rockies have no book on him at all which many times leads to a team making mistakes at the plate. After Lester wins game 4, the Sox are not going to look back and take game 5 with Beckett and game 6 back at Fenway. World Series MVP: Papelbon
