Who do you see on the mound for both teams?

Stottlemeyer vs. Wallace???
If game 6 goes extra innings also, then it's probably Jeter vs Manny on the bump.
Ain't a lot of miles available on those arms in the bullpens right now.

If the Yankees or the Red Sox are too tired to play the next game - do you think Bud Selig will allow the Mets to play for one of the teams?

These are the times that try mens souls.
A rain out tonite is likely. It'll be Kevin Brown either way and Pedro on Friday if it rains. If it is played on Thursday, then you are probably looking at Pedro for 3 or 4, Arroyo for 2 or 3, then Wakefield for 1 or 2.
I am hoping they get the game in tonite. The Yankees bullpen is burned worse than the Red Sox from 26 innings in two games. If the Yankees had Wakefiled they would be waiting for the NL winner.
They can't figure out Ortiz. Loaiza is burned. Rivera is mortal.
Obviously Schilling is the key. I assume Leiber pitches another good game. Schilling got new hi-top cleats. Schilling needs to pitch like he has all year, or its over.
The Red sox have proven they can win with Damon and Bellhorn in the tank, just not by 8 runs.

there is no game 7!! I have to get up for work on time at least 1 morning
I forgot about Derik Lowe. He's fresh.
Incredible baseball in both LCS the last couple of days. And isn't it so Sox....to have to play 3 games to win 2..... 
Sometimes it takes 16 innings to get 9 good ones.
Mirabelli for the Sox. 
Actually it will be Wakefield again although Arroyo may have been pulled after 1 inning to make sure he was available for a 7th game.

Mirabelli is a catcher...actually ,the backup to Variteck, and is injured which is why he did not catch Wakefield last night
Arroyo is fresh...Lowe is fresh...Wakefield can come in at any point and time...the possibilities are amazing

I thought the Sox could throw "Boston Rob" from Survivor, and NYY could throw Trump's left-hand woman, Caroline, from The Apprentice.
How about Ben Afflec for the Sox vs. Billy Crystal for the Yanks? 
Catchermom,
OK, now you have to tell PhoenixDad that Jeter and Manny aren't pitchers either and tell Glove Man that Ben and Billy are...
OK, I'll admit that I blew it a bit. I've added a smiley face to that post since those two didn't have real pitchers named in their posts.
