And the Yanks going 6-0 against Cleveland in the regular season helped them so much in the ALDS.

So you're comparing the team that has been the biggest choke artists in sports for at least the past four years to the team that is having one of the best runs in history? Not a very good argument.

Let's not forget there is no DH in Colorado. Ortiz will start at first leaving Youklis without a position. If they play him somewhere else then their defense is going to pretty horrid at three positions.
The Rockies on the other hand get to have their regular lineup at home and can add Ryan Spilborghs (he actually has better numbers than their starter Taveras) in Boston.
