Sports squawk

"I'll take the Red Sox in six games. No one's been able to slow Beckett in the postseason, and he's the likely starter for Games 1, 4 and a possible Game 7. Ortiz and Ramirez have plenty of help at the top of the order from Pedroia and Youkilis. Throw out Gagne, and the bullpen is solid." - Matthew Sprague, sports editor

"Sox in six. Their pitching is much better and deeper, and they have more power arms in the bullpen." - Chris Carlson, sports writer

"While my column today (Wednesday) predicted the Red Sox as World Series champions, it did not predict the win-loss records. I think Boston will clinch the Series at Fenway Park in Game 6. Colorado is more formidable than Red Sox fans may know. However, the back end of Colorado's rotation is Josh Fogg and Aaron Cook (who hasn't pitched since mid-August). Were I Clint Hurdle, that would worry me. The Red Sox are too deep and a little bit better." - Howard Herman, sports writer

"Red Sox in five. Beckett will be the difference." - Rich Fyle, sports writer
