2010 MLB Season Discussion

[Akiyama]

Jealous, you picked a ridiculous game to go to.

Think you Yankees fans are overreacting just a bit lol.

Yeah.. no kidding. Oh no, the Yankees have a losing streak. If anything, Yankee fans will probably bitch non-stop until they win the World Series again this year, and forget about it for a while. I'll agree that Girardi's decisions with how he handles the bullpen are weird as fuck, but jesus. NYY's what.. 30+ games over .500? Chill out!

[Kurp]

I don't really understand the Yankee's fans panic, or whatever you want to call it, either.

The NL playoff race is much more exciting in any case. They still have five or six teams that could end up in the post season. The only team I'm really pushing for is the Braves as it'd be nice to see Bubby Cox in the playoffs one last time.

The final Twins and White Sox series starts tonight with good pitching matchups throughout. Hopefully it goes well, I'm really not up for a game 163.

[Melena]

So Girardi = White Dusty Baker?

[Cephius]

Eh, I'm not panicing. They've lost 7 out of the last 8 games and their playoff odds according to coolstandings.com have dropped from 98.2% to 97.9%.

Still doesn't excuse Girardi from managing like a tard, though.

[Kyo]

I'll be there Tuesday~

Cool shit, I figured you would make one of the games, Im trying to buy my uncles tickets for one of the Boston games as well.

So because of the day off on Thursday, the Braves are gonna get Hamels Halladay Oswalt for at least the first series, and the former two will be on long rest. I love it.

Haha. God damnit. Yeah, we're fucked then. At least we can throw Hudson on one of those and maybe steal one. Still, those three..in a road series. Braves can't even beat the PIRATES in a road series, lol

[Conrad]

yea buddy

[Conrad]

Incidentally, I think we'll have the same three starters for the last three games in Atlanta, too.

[Akiyama]

Well it's hard to predict that far in the future because shit can happen, but I think it'd be different in Atlanta just due to their magic there, but on the road with those 3.. now that's a bitch.

[Soa]

That is correct. They are starting Oswalt on Friday and pushing Kendrick back to Sunday, setting up the big 3 for both Braves series.

The next 9 games (after this series) should be interesting though, as the Phillies play all 9 at home and the Braves all 9 on the road. The Braves need to figure out how to win on the road or the division may be decided before the final series.

[Melena]

WTH, speaking of the Braves, but when the hell did Livan Hernandez turn into Albert Pujols?

[Moss]

Great story on ESPN about Eric Show, the guy who gave up Pete Rose's 4,000something hit.

Thank you Cubs, don't blow it.

[Cephius]

Holy shit what a throw by Golsen to end the game. Man I can't take this stress, it's not even October yet...

At least you have an October to be stressed out over.

[Eliseos]

Astros have a chance of being a .500 team. A month ago they were 15 under. It also looks like the Brewers are going to lose most of their games the rest of the year lol.

[jmc]

WOOOOOOOO!

Red sox getting on a roll now, actually backing up their lackluster pitching with some good offense.


Oh yea, only like 3 fucking months too late.

*sigh*

[Viq]

I'm not sure I would consider 5-5 in the last 10 to be a real hot streak, but I'll take what I can get at this point.

Oh its far from a streak of any kind.

Was just happy to see a pitcher give up 5+ runs, and actually still win.
