Certainly the ratings for Yankees-Marlins will be lower than any of the other three formerly possible scenarios. However, I'm sure Fox will do their best to stir up interest via a David vs. Goliath storyline. Here we have the mighty Yankees vs. the young, scrappy, never-say-die Marlins.

For the Marlins to win, they need to show in Game 1 they are not intimidated playing in Yankee stadium. They need to get good pitching and continue to be aggressive on offense, running every chance they get (despite the fact Posada is now as good as there is at throwing out runners). I very much doubt the Marlins will feel any pressure whatsoever, so this makes them especially dangerous and prone to pull out all the stops. If they can somehow pull off a Game 1 win, you'll see the ratings start to climb.
