Conventional wisdom has the Yankees winning two of three (that's what our baseball columnist, Ken Davidoff, thinks).
I kinda think the Mets will win two out of three. Why? Not sure. In football, I believe in the "desperate team" theory that says when evenly matched teams play, the team that needs the win more will generally get it (especially if that team is at home).
The Mets need a win more tonight, which is why I think they will win Game 1. Then all they have to do is take one of the next two.
So that's what I'm going for.
What do you all think? And here's a side question: will Glavine get win No. 296 on Saturday? I say no, but think the Mets could still win the game. So I guess I'm predicting the Mets to win Friday and Saturday and lose Sunday.

Someone call a priest.
The Yankees will sweep the Mets.
I don't think so papi.
Loved Oliver Perez, he can be amazing and seems to be getting more and more confident.
The flip side, Carlos Delgado----4 K's 5 Runners left on base.
Enjoy the WIN and Carlos---enjoy the Golden Sombrero.
I'm kicking back and enjoying the victory beer, ice cold. Two more to go.
Perez showed who the real pitcher was in last night's game. It certainly wasn't the overweight, overpayed pitcher in the Yankee uniform. What a dumb move by Cashman to sign Clemens. That money would have been better spent on some middle relief pitchers who can win the Yankees some games.
As far as Delgado, Willie should bat him no higher than 6th in the order. Until Delgado get multiple hits in multiple games, he doesn't belong batting any higher. I'd even consider sending him to New Orleans until he starts hitting.
