Like The Who said, “Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.”

Technically, your New York Mets have yet to officially name Sandy Alderson as the new General Manager, but that’s mostly out of respect for the World Series than anything else. Mets fans everywhere can rejoice as the hiring of Alderson is set to start a whole new era of Metropolitan baseball.

Or is it?

Of all the major pro sports leagues, Major League Baseball's postseason is the least valid at crowning a champ.  This is for a number of reasons.  There is good news, however.

Baseball has loads of issues. The bats shatter and impale baserunners. The games are too long, and so is the season. Since when is the World Series supposed to be played in November?

On Wednesday, the San Francisco Giants will be taking the field against the Texas Rangers in the 106th edition of baseball's World Series. The players will be trotting out to their respective positions, digging into the batter's box and toeing the pitcher's mound with only one thing on their minds: winning.

ESPN.com, citing an unnamed source, is reporting that the New York Mets have chosen Sandy Alderson as their next General Manger and the announcement could come as soon as this Friday, between Games 2 and 3 of the World Series.

The hit television show Glee has dominated Fox for the past year, but this October Cliff Lee, or "Clee," as one site likes to call him, looks to take over Fox.

The followers of "Clee," the "Cleeks," have dominated Twitter for the past few days. 

Every year, managers, coaches and writers from around Major League Baseball award honors and trophies to the players. And every year, they screw up.

While the favorites (Yankees, Phillies) are not participating in the 2010 MLB World Series, we do have quite a matchup to look forward to. As we sit here in the bullpen, let’s take a look at the teams and see who has the edge, if there is any.

The 2010 World Series will commence on Wednesday evening from San Francisco.  It can last as long as nine days or as few as five.  It should be interesting to see how this unlikely World Series will play out.  

Pitching match-ups will be at the forefront, but this slideshow will attempt to go even deeper. I will examine all things that need mentioning and present fun facts for each game.  

Here are some major league reasons to watch this 2010 World Series between the Texas Rangers and the San Francisco Giants.  

Many fans on the East Coast aren’t too excited about the 2010 World Series matchup. No, it’s not the 27-time World Champion Yankees against the postseason favorite Philadelphia Phillies.

Instead, it’s just the two best teams.
