First and foremost, I'd like to say that the Orioles suck ass.


Ok, here are my picks, so just humor me.

AL East-Yankees
AL Central-Tigers
AL West-Angels
AL Wild Card-Red Sox

NL East-Mets
NL Central-Cubs
NL West-Dodgers
NL Wild Card-Phillies

ALCS-Angels and Yankees
NLCS-Mets and Dodgers

World Series-Yankees and Mets......Yankees win in 6.


AL MVP-Vlad Guerrero
NL MVP-Jose Reyes

AL Cy Young-Johan Santana
NL Cy Young-Jake Peavy

AL Rookie of the Year-Daisuke Matsuzaka
NL Rookie of the Year-Chris Young

*sigh* i hope it's not yankees and mets in the series, it's one thing to look back in the past and see the old yanks, the old giants, and the old dodgers of NYC, but the modern era really reeks of a no-salary cap league excess

for a while i didn't mind having the mets there to counter the yanks, but now they are division rivals to the nats, and rather bothersome

it's the one thing about baseball and basketball i hate, even more then steroids, and the media, i mean espn is just rimming yanks, mets, bosox, chisox, and fuck a cubbie, the fuck why do they care, fuck a cubbie

[jennthebenn]

fuck a cubbie, son! tell 'em why you aggrieved!

i think it's going to end up mets vs. angels in the series, with the angels
winning. that's my early gutshot.

[Danny Himself]

Go team!

[Пятхъдесят Шест]

Which team Danny? Specify!

You love Seattle! Be a Mariners fan. If you want to be miserable.

[davenotdead]

my picks

Yanks
Indians
Angels
WC-Twins

Mets
Reds
DBacks
WC-Phillies

Mets over the Angels in 7

AL MVP- Vladimir Guerrero (or Grady Sizemore, but I doubt 2 lead-off hitters will win)
NL MVP-Jose Reyes (or Brian McCann...he's such a stud for a Catcher)

AL Cy Young-Johan Santana
NL Cy Young-Aaron Harang

AL Rookie of the Year-Delmon Young
NL Rookie of the Year-Chris Iannetta

You hanging in there, Jenn??

[jennthebenn]

yes...i am. it's a hallmark of my insanity.

1-7. shutout last night in a game where we made tim hudson look like
steve carlton.

i am taking comfort in the fact that we have one win already. SIGH.

[krastian]

It looks pretty bleak, I have to say. Even Patterson has looked bad. I'm trying to trade away Cordero for another closer in 2 of my fantasy leagues because I'm afraid with that pitching they won't be able to get him the ball much with a lead. Hopefully they won't be the worst team in baseball, but it doesn't look to promising. Either way, they'll have some money to throw around with revenue from the new ballpark and MASN (which rules I must say.)


I thought the O's should have swept the Yankees. When Giambi came up in the second game I said to myself, "It's all good, we'll bring in Walker." Of course, Cumberland's finest, Sammy "what the hell were you thinking" Perlozzo, decided to leave Baez in and boom!! I can see how he wanted to show his confidence in Baez as his main guy in the 8th regardless of who was hitting, but as Herm Edwards said, "You play......to win.....the game!!"

i dont care much for baseball but i grew up/am friends with both of the older clemens kids (koby and kory). i live a street over from their place. debbie, is a hottie, by the way.

 

[davenotdead]

is the whole family a pack of gym freaks?

[cryptowonderdruginvogue]

no, kory is kinda lazy

[davenotdead]

ah the black sheep huh....cuz I know Koby is a minor league player right now...and it is well-known that Roger is just a freak...in a good way I suppose as he still has the stuff to play in MLB...

[krastian]

Thank you for bumping my thread.....it means oh so much


Fucking Cordero man.....get it together!!! He's killing me in a couple fantasy leagues.


The Birds continue to play solid ball and Payton is back with Ramon to follow....gotta keep the ball rolling. Miggy hasn't even hit for power yet.


A-Rod.....damn, G. Two more blasts tonight.....have him in quite a few leagues that I am slaughtering in as well.


Yankees vs. Red Sox....I hate them both, but their series are always the most fun to watch (switching from the O's game in between innings of course). Game was intense as hell tonight as usual.

[pantophobia]

great games tonight, missed the nats win cause i was switching between the end of the sharks and predators game which the sharks won and move to the second round, they can certainly take it late twice into 14th inning this week

but the nats are not gonna overcome the Mets this year, it's too much with em and the Braves, now the Orioles on the other hand, they could make a run, i think they can hang in there, and that is saying a lot in a division with the Yanks , the Sox and the Blue Jays, i think Melvin Mora has turned into the best player on the team and will be the star soon enough once Tejada steps back

i can't hate on the red sox though, as they say "the enemy of my enemy is my friend", love Ortiz, he is the living dominican re-incarnation of Babe Ruth ( i mean it, look at their build and their faces, you'll see it)

it's a nice night when all three teams i like win, that red sox game was awesome, coco crisp over the wall was hi-larious, and el duque falling apart was beautiful, 5 runs in the eighth, that game was won and then it wasn't

[krastian]

Real nice win for the O's tonight in Boston since they always kill us!! Nick had a pretty sick catch AND went 4 for 5. It would be great if we could pull off winning 2 of 3 from the Red Sox.

[krastian]

The Home Run Derby is tomorrow night.....I'm taking Vladimir Guerrero to beat last years winner, Ryan Howard.

Pujols has a shot to win too since he'll actually have some pitches to hit unlike when he's hitting in the pitiful Cardinal lineup.

[davenotdead]

'outfieldsman'...hehe, i had a chuckle, thanks mama...that was cute...they are commonly called 'outfielders'...the guys who play around the bases get the 'man' added, ie-thirdbaseman, etc...

Hey that's pretty cool, Kegmama.....Teahen is a pretty decent player.

[davenotdead]
