MLB Chatter 2008

But you forgot the playoff factor. Johan is on a playoff team while the Giants are fighting for 4th place. MVPs and CY Youngs don`t usually come from last place teams unless your putting up Arod numbers.

Being on a shitty team didn't stop Brandon Webb from winning the NL Cy Young in 2006.

Besides, Lincecum is 16-3 on a team that's 63-80.

Do you have any idea what an accomplishment that is?

A biggie. If Lincecum wins, I`ll be happy cause I`m a huge fan but I think the playoffs will push Santana over the edge.

Yesterday was a bittersweat day in Metland. Billy Wagner is out for this year and next year and needs Tommy John Surgery. I guess the baseball gods really do want us to sign Krod. May Mr. Met smile upon Krod and protect him for the rest of this season while Omar gets the checkbook ready.

Billy may not have been my favorite Met but it always sucks losing somebody to injury and it looks like Billy`s last game as a Met was a blown save. Hopefully Luis Ayala and the rest of the pen could hold things down till Krod next year.

I really think that you're overestimating the impact of the playoffs.

The Playoffs didn't give Chris Carpenter the edge over Webb in '06, and the Cardinals won the World Series that year.

No one is going to give the Cy Young award to a guy with six fewer wins than the league leader when one other dude beats him in all three major stats.

I'm sorry, there isn't really ANY chance that Santana is in the running at this point.

Hell, C.C. Sabathia has a bigger chance of winning the Cy Young than Santana, and he has only been in the league for half a season.
 
Yes the Yankees do suck and I say this as a fan. What a disappointment this year has been. Watching the team's last games is like watching Old Yeller before he was mercifully shot. Except Old Yeller was more lively even with rabies.
 
Another game, another two bombs from Carlos Delgado. I appoligze for every single bad thought, I`ve had about him throughout the season. Its his world and we are just living in it.
 
It would have been a great win for the Sox tonight, but unfortunately Papelbon had an off night and blew the save. Hopefully Commander Kick Ass (Beckett) can resume the ass kicking duties tomorrow.
 
Wow the Diamondbacks are in a serious death spiral this year, no?

I never would have figured they would suck so bad this late in the year after coming out so strong in April.

Well, that's why you play 162 games, I suppose.
 
Ladies and Gentlemen!

Your 2008 American League West Champions: The Los Angeles Angels!!!

:techman:

And as always, thanks to our pals in New York for all their help...

:lol:

^Not all by same players. In a sense those championships were won by different teams.

I agree with you 100% All hail Carlos! :techman:

Lord Gado with another big rbi tonight to help the mets take the lead. Hopefully we can hold on as the Nats just hit a 3 run shot and cut the lead to 1.
 
And Timlin blows it badly (big surprise) for the Red Sox in the 14th.

Why is he not retired, again? :mad:

Oh well...the Sox will be in the postseason regardless barring any major disaster. Their inability to get wins against Toronto worries me a bit, though.
 
The Red Sox will come through or at least make an impressive showing. I'm sick of hearing about how banged up the Yanks were, yadayada. The Sox were banged up too and still sucked it up and found a way to win.
