SAN DIEGO, CA - If the Padres are to win their first World Series under skipper Tim Stoops, they will certainly have their work cut out for them. Representing the American League will be the Anaheim Angels, winners of 104 games in the 2010 regular season.
The Angels boast three starters that won 15 games or more - Dan Haren (22), Felix Hernandez (19) and C.C. Sabathia (17). At the plate, the Angels have 7 that hit more than 20 home runs in 2010 - Mark Reynolds (46), Adam Dunn (39), Curtis Granderson (34), Troy Tulowitzki (28), Victor Martinez (24), Nick Markakis (21) and Lance Berkman (21). "We're not scared," 10-game loser Kevin Slowey said. "We may not homer much, but we will double you to death," second baseman Orlando Hudson promised. Various media outlets have taken to calling this the Holy World Series. The series will commence on October 19 with Anaheim holding home-field advantage in the best-of-seven series.
