All-time greatest teams Redsocks/Phillies to battle in 2011 Hot Stove World Series

With the season winding down, baseball's two greatest dynasties are on a collision course for the 2011 Hot Stove League Championship Series:

BOSTON REDSOCKS
 VS
PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES

The teams have nearly clinched their respective hot stove pennants with brilliant trades and acquisitions.
With only 40 days left, Boston leads the AL race by 35 games over the secondplace Texas Rangers, who lost yesterday by signing Adrian Beltre at his highest market-value since age 24.

In the National League, Philadelphia has a 20-game lead over the upstart Washington Capitals.
Soon, it'll be time for the Ultimate Confrontation:

The arguably greatest starting rotation in baseball history
vs
The arguably greatest team since the '27 Yankees.

Game One:
Cliff Lee (21-0 this winter)
against
Dice K (voted 2011 Hot Stove Comeback Player of the Year)

Game Two:
Roy Oswalt (Led all Hot Stove pitchers with 0.00 ERA)
against
Josh Beckett (Elected to Hot Stove Hall of Fame - 2011)

Game Three:
Roy Halladay (2011 Hot Stove Cy Young Award Winner -- unanimous!)
against
Jon Lester (2011 Hot Stove Roberto Clemente Award for humanitarianism)

Game Four
Cole Hamels (starter, 2011 all-star and futures game)
against
John Lackey (named MVP of Super Bowl XXXXVI)

Game Five (if necessary)
TBA (named to Hot Stove all-star team)
against
Clay Bucholtz (2011 Hot Stove Pulitzer Prize for Feature Writing)
