Both teams are quite good and to underestimate either would be foolhardy. However, I tend to agree with the points you've made. I think the Yankees match up better against the Rangers. Frankly, the Rays offensive speed scares the crap out of me.
The Rays are the new Angels. And the Yankees beat the Angels last year. Fear nobody, beat everybody, who cares who it is: Beat them.
I think I take Texas over Tampa. I saw enough of Tampa and would rather avoid a Divisional match up here. Also, Texas has zero track record in postseason play and I'll take that match up with our seasoned playoff vet squad.
To me, Tampa is the easy choice because they don't have Cliff Lee, and they do have more holes in their lineup. Rays have a better bullpen, but a couple of their starters are falling apart. Both teams have given Yankees fits at ties this year, but Lee is the man I'd rather not face twice.
