Re: baseball

im trying to talk objectively. what you people say back is slanted, as is mine. but that is like me saying because santana hasnt won every start, that he is a shit arm.

break it down.
johnny damon- his resume as a leadoff guy is there, his numbers are amoung the best.
jeter- do we even need to go there?
abreau- solid pure hitter, not powerful, but can hit to all feilds with a high average, and a sick OBS, and even better RISP, leads walks in majors. next year will have 200 RBIs with less than 25 homers.
giambi- not the best, but arguably one of the top power hitters and until this year, average hitters, always 1,2, or 3 in walks in the the majors.
sheffeild- has played 4 positions superbly, gonna be up there in homers and average, consistent 120 RBI plus guy, usually over 135, hurt this year mid season
matsuii- the homerun champ in japan behind atta. huge gamer in postseason, solid hitter above 300, great RISP and RBI numbers. also, hits to all feilds.
AROD- this year, its all out the window. but good lord if he ever wakes u-p and realizes what NY is about. to think a year ago, he was considered to be on the path to be the best player EVER. but now... its a crapshoot. maybe he should live with mattingly or paul o neill in the off season and get it in order.
posada- outside of pudge, and ignoring what mauer did this year, he is the best offensive, non-pure power catcher out there. piazza hit more homers, but jorge has beter overall numbers and is a sick defensive catcher. HOWEVER< so you cant throw it back at me, mauer is a freak, and better than posada in the batters box. but posada has a knack for big hits in NY.
canoe- 3 place batting crown, possible gold glove thisyear. more power than carew.

comon, who you gonna compare? the mantle yanks? rose's reds? even then, they dont compare.

throw away loyalties for a sec and look it up.

Looks like someone forgot to tell Detroit

THE GREATEST LINE UP OF ALL TIME just got shut out

(14th straight innings)

(...and counting)

Re: baseball

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!


My girl is from Michigan and was talking shit all year about the Tigers this and the Tigers that but FUCK!!!!!!!!! I knew they had good pitching in Verlander, Rogers and Bonderman but I would have never expected them to lose game 1 in NY then come back and win the next 3. I'm not a Yankees fan or Tigers fan so I didn't really care who won. Now I have to hear my girl talk shit since her Team is still in he MLB playoffs(my team is the Cubs so I have nothing to say to her about baseball) and her collage team is Michigan who will probably be # 2 in the country behind Ohio State(my team is Miami and they suck all) so I am catching hell!!!! GO OAKLAND!

Re: baseball

franseca just made a great point, cancel the mets game tonight. you cant have a NY ball player die and play a NY game 5 hours later.

[Jenks]

Re: baseball

Play the game. It was a Yanks pitcher, not a Mets pitcher. They don't stop games when other players from other teams die. Not trying to be harsh, but, srsly.

Re: baseball

LIttle bullpen meltdown/offenseive breakout there last night. Shame because it was a very tight game that got out of hand at the very end. Mets D was not solid enough and when you give a team like the Cards extra outs they will beat you with them. We also used a lot of our pitching in the 2nd of 5 straight games so there could be repercussions in the next few days.

It only gets tougher from here so this is the gut check for the Mets, prove you belong here or go make a tee time with the Yankees.

Re: baseball

Can you say ass whopping? Like I said, gut check and the Mets had none tonight. As if still stunned that they lost last night-- news flash-- this is the playoffs, you're not going to win every game. Not to take away from Suppon who pitched a great game (and hit one too, FFS), but the Mets looked flat from the first inning and had no swagger, no smiles, just dead.

I'm looking to WIllie to be the skipper and put their heads back in this series. The Cards stole all of the momentum in this series so we need a spark to get back and even this shit up. Tomorrow can go either way as far as starting pitching goes, so we need to shrug off these two losses and play like we know how.

Fucking Spizeo--- pull those clown pubes off your chin.

Re: baseball

ugh. just got home from Game 4 at Busch. What an ass-kicking that was.

Game tomorrow is key -- if Weaver can bring us a win at home, I feel pretty confident that Carp or Suppan can win one of the two in NY. Both might be a tall order, though...

Re: baseball

Ah, like busting a nut after not getting any for a while, that felt good. Mets back on stride, 3 game series which will go back to Shea no matter what. It's on fuckers!! Beltran! Delgado!! Even the Valentine gets in on the fun.

Re: baseball

timely rainout!

WTF am I the only one posting in this thread anymore? Me and Toasty might as well take it to PM. Don't give up just because the rest of your teams suck
