  1. Wow. 176 pages for losing to the Pirates. Lots of self Flagulation? I didn't see the game, but, from what I've read, as much as you guys were trying to give us the game, we were trying pretty hard not to take it.
  2. I dunno. There should be some fudge factor for the numbers against the Pirates yesterday to adjust them as if they played against major leaguers. That was pathetic.
  3. I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE! Enjoy folks. I'm going to do something here I'm actually paid to do: Work. Have a good one.

  5. We need to play Houston more often.
  6. That's what I want to know. ](*,) ](*,) ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)
  7. No thanks. But we'll take Bay for Izturis. And Jones. No Nefi?
  8. http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/07122/782677-63.stm It's explained in here some place.
  9. Sorry. Cy Snell is pitching the rubber match.
  10. There's a joke in there someplace... :oops: :roll:
  11. 2nd tier behind homeplate are the best seats I've sat in at Shea. It's an old park that's about to be replaced. When you go, you'll know why it's about to be replaced. I haven't been there in over 10 years.
  12. For this to be true (winner taking the league with a win total in the low 80's), the Brewers would have to play much worse from here on out. They are 17-9, .654 w%, on pace for 106 wins. Obviously that is not sustainable. However, in order to finish with a win total in the low 80s, let's say 83, they'd have to finish 66-70, playing .485 ball. Their hot start, whether influenced by luck or not, has provided a cushion for them to coast to an 85 win season (by going .500 the rest of the way). All they have to do is play to their current "expected" pace, of .537 ball, to get to 90 wins. That would be 73-63. I would say they have more than a good chance to finish the season with more than a win total in the low 80s. See last year. :-) Plus, while the Cards & the 'Stros are weaker than last years team, the Pirates, Cubs and Reds are stronger.

    Ouch!

    Got this off of the 10-Spot:
  14. Run away? No. Win? Possibly. Somethings need to go their way that haven't gone there way in the past. The biggest being the health of their starting pitching. Really, anyone can win this division this year. One team is going to get hot sometime in August and put some distance between themselves and the rest of the division. The division will be won with a win total in the low 80s again. I think the difference this year is the win total for sixth place will be closer to the mid 70s.
  15. Has to happen sometime, right? :? Fixed. :-)
  16. But he can't pitch against anybody else, it seems.
  17. ](*,) #-o :(
  18. Discuss. 2-1, 1.59 ERA. On a winning team. (At least for now.)
  19. Don't look at me. If I had any baseball intelligence, I'd be posting about the Pens here. I root for a team that hans had a winning record in 14 seasons.
  20. I like the sig, but it doesn't really portray the intense pain I assume is associated with being a Bucs fan. Neither does yours. We shouldn't be talking about pain. :lol: LOL! I just changed the sig because of your confusion. BTW, In spite of Torres' best effort, we're officially a .500 Baseball team!
  21. Sorry. Thought the Freddy avatar would give me away. And, I've been here for over 2 years! :-)
