Major League Baseball 2009

I think the Nationals have a better shot of evolving into dragons.

They're still a young team. I'm sure they'll get their shit together someday. Remember the Rockies were crap for many years, but made it to the World Series!

I'm mostly just mad because they had the Braves number 9/10 times last season.

A-Rod out until May to have hip surgery to get his steroid-tumor removed. Conflicts me, as while I'm thrilled as a Sox fan, it hurts me in Fantasy Baseball, and destroys my dreams of having the top 2 picks in the draft for the 2nd year in a row

I keep checking this thread so see if anyone posted the news that Manny was signed - guess you're all as sick of him as I.

 

[Scout101]

completely...

If he had signed with the Giants I would have posted. He didn't and now it's just an old tired story. This spring training is too darn long. Is it April yet.

Actually, that makes me wonder if Manny took the lazy way out and delayed signing just to have to work out less in Spring Training.

Braves beat the Yankees, Panama, and Venezuela. I'm liking it so far!

OMG at the Braves at the Braves 11-2 record WITHOUT their two best hitters.

It's only spring training.

Kinda loving the Giants 500 record though. Much like what Todd Mclellan says, this year is all about the process.

Hey... TB won the Grapefruit League last year.

Hey... TB won the Grapefruit League last year.

All the better teams that were in the grapefruit league moved to the Cactus League.

Sox camp is going quite well, even Lugo is doing decent. One person I can't wait to see called up this year is Daniel Bard, who is consistently hitting up the Sox radar gun in these games in the range of 100MPH, plus. Just incredible.

 

[tomalak301]

I wish the season started already. I mean the WBC ends this week, and there will still be 2 more weeks before the season actually starts. This is another reason I hate Bud Selig. Baseball should not be played in November.

 

[Starbreaker]

Yeah... I'm getting really anxious.

Prediction: World Series - Braves v Yankees

Worst Record: Astros

 

[Mallory]

I agree. I'm ready for some real baseball.

Worst Record: Astros

The NL East will be a tough division for any team, but the Braves seem third at best.

 

[Ruaidhri]

Yeah, Atlanta in the series seems kind of a bold pick. It's a two horse race in that division, and one that'll probably be pretty bloody.

 

[Starbreaker]

How in the world do you give up 9 hits for 9 earned runs in .2 innings?

 

[Captain Ice]

Who did that?

 

[Mallory]

Yeah, I missed that one too. Spent too much time watching basketball yesterday and never got around to checking the baseball box scores.
