It's just not the same anymore.

So much for the Tigers only beating bad teams....er then again...

This is a make or break week for the Red Sox, me thinks.

And right now, I can hear a cracking noise starting...

Don't worry, it will be okay.

If the Phils win 3 over the Mets or sweep them what is the feeling on their chances?

Thanks for your support.

If they sweep, they'll be only 11 games back with 42 to go....they're chances are...nil.

I mean Wild Card, of course they are out of the division. Sorry it came out wrong.

Whoever wins the little league world series ought to get the NL wild card.

sounds like a good plan!

Thanks for your support.

I would have given you a hug, but I don't know how you'd feel about that.

Okay...I'm gonna shut up now before I have to yell at myself for derailing a thread.

There's no hugging in baseball.

Phils have just about a good a chance as anyone in the NL for the wild card. If Howard and Utley can carry the team offensively and you get some production from Pat the Bat, and Leiber pitches like he did last night, then sure, why not the Phils for the Wild Card.

We don't get production from Burrell, and Lieber rarely pitches like that.

That would be the reason why not.

well, at least you still have the Philly Phanatic !

mets up 3-zip in the 2nd.

Jose Reyes needs to at least be in the discussion for NL MVP

 

[randhail]

he's at least the mvp of my fantasy team

 

[speedracer]

Yankees are down 9-2 to the Orioles, blowing out their bullpen the day before a doubleheader against the Red Sox.

that bodes well for bean town.

good job by J. Wright AKA "I can only pitch 5 innings"

 

[phillyfan26]

chase utley / ryan howard for mvp!

 

[Numb1075]

a player doesn't get the MVP award playing for a team under .500 unless your name is AROD

You are not elligle for the MVP award if you play half your home games in a stadium where Jose Reyes hit 3 homeruns in 3 at bats

And even that was blasphemy.

 

[impy13]

Those Sawx are fucking up.

 

[randhail]

at least the Sox got Mike Lowell out of the trade with the Marlins.

when are the open tryouts for the bullpen?

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

lenny dykstra is fatter than sid fernandez... i'm shocked.


and as for the NL MVP talk... unless it's pujols, baraing a colapse, it'll be calros beltran.

ya can't really have an mvp from a team that isn't even over .500 now can we.

I'm a Yankees fan, but I've been watching the tribute to the '86 Mets that's on right now, and I've been tearing up. I was at Game 6 of the 1986 WS, thanks to a friend who worked in the Executive Office at the time, and it was one of the greatest nights of my life.

It was fun seeing the Mets players now. Especially Darryl Strawberry. Oh, what could have been...

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

i do believe keith hernandez has been drinking with the old cohorts today... we could be in for another "what's that girl doing in the dugout" moment
