Well, it would not be the nightmare of Twins/Rockies for the ratings, but it would be close. Yanks/Dodgers would be 1st, Yanks/Phillies 2nd, Angels/Phillies 3rd (due to Phils defense of title and bi-coastal draw), which leaves an LA X 2 matchup dead last.

Are you saying it's about TV ratings and not the thrill of America's pastime, baseball, played between the two best teams? I'm so disillusioned

Imprimis, it's about money, as far as Fox is concerned. Murdock cannot live by Simpsons alone. Secundus, if it's about the two best teams, then it's what Fox wants - Yankees vs. Dodgers.

There is talk of the Yankees using a 3 man rotation for the ALCS.

3 man rotation is the way to go if there are no rain outs. You don't know what you will get from Gaudin or Joba starting. Besides, with Joba in the pen CC only has to go maybe 5 good innings in game 4 and turn it over to the bullpen.
Yankees in 5. Yankees starting pitching is just as good as the Angel (especially with a 3 man rotation). Our bullpen is much deeper and better than the Angels and offense is just as good if not better than the Angels. Key is for the Yankee hitters to be patient and run up the pitch count against the Angel starters and get into their bullpen.
