How does a Red Sox - Padres World Series sound?

[maveric]

The revamped Padres are in line to contend for the first time in 6 years. The additions of Brian Giles, David Wells, and Ramon Hernandez, along with a healthy Phil Nevin and Ryan Klesko could push the "Pads" into the post season for the first time since they won the NL pennant in 1998. Plus they have a beautiful, new, baseball only ballpark.

The Sox, I believe, have the best all around team in the AL and seem to have deep pockets to add more talent during the season if needed.

An East coast - West coast series would be a big hit.

1. Brian Giles, David Wells, and Ramon Hernandez,

do not take a celler to the penthouse.

3. Their young pitchers are coming of age.

And Trevor Hoffman is healthy. Look at this lineup on paper.

We're in LA's shadow, you're in NY's shadow.

5. I'm a Bostonian living in San Diego and that would make my year.

My kids, born and raised here, would root for the "Pads", while I would be there for my "Sox".
