And also, does sea have any chance at the playoffs? They don't have the pitching do they? And griffey is charity

 

[The Ghost of Common]

Dodgers vs. Yankees

most likely.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

wings vs penguins

With Bedard and Washburn on the roster, a chance but a very slim one.After they're dealt, no chance.

That would be nuts

 

[Mr. Know-It-All]

Dodgers vs. Yankeesmost likely.

If the Dodgers get another decent SP they are a LOCK. Yankees, while a very good team, will be there if their chemistry ever clicks. Talent wise, they should be a LOCK.

Guess you havent watched many Yankee games this year. Their chemistry is the best Ive ever seen (even better than those 90s teams). As far as talent I think the Sox are still up there and I wouldnt count out the Angels or Rays just yet.

This would probably be one of the higher rated WS in years. LA, NY, Manny & ARod with the roids, Torre vs NY

 

[jobarules]

Also I dont think LA is a lock in the NL. Yes they are a lock to make the playoffs but Philly has the WS title and need another pitcher but their lineup is deadly and you have to think Lidge will turn it around. Thats a very good team. Also, I wouldnt count out the Cubs and the Cardinals have the best manager in baseball and enough players to get there IMO.

Milton Bradley's injuries disagree with this.

I've only watched a few Yankee games, usually I prefer real baseball in the National League. However, my comment on chemistry has to do with how they are going to divvy up the time between Melky Cabrera, Gardner, Damon, Swisher, Nady and Matsui. Then you get to the pitching staff and - well your bullpen blows - which is why there is such a call to get Joba back in the pen. Infield you are set and top of the rotation is solid. If Hughes pitches well that is a huge bonus.

Cant disagree with you on the bullpen. It sucks but putting Joba to the pen would be a big mistake. And there is no questions about who is gonna start in the OF & DH. Melky in CF, Damon in LF, Swisher in RF, Matsui at DH. Gardner will get the occasional start and Nady's elbow is too ####ed up to play in the OF probably.

Also I dont think LA is a lock in the NL. Yes they are a lock to make the playoffs but Philly has the WS title and need another pitcher but their lineup is deadly and you have to think Lidge will turn it around. Thats a very good team. Also, I wouldnt count out the Cubs and the Cardinals have the best manager in baseball and enough players to get there IMO.

Really? Because he's been so consistent throughout his career...this must be just an aberration.

http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/players/6913/c...T4vdrAG1DSFCLcFLooks like hes pretty damn consistent his whole career in BAA and ERA Hes only had one other bad year. Maybe youre talking about another Brad Lidge.

Not counting his first year in the bigs, he's had 4 years with an ERA over 3.30 and 3 seasons under 3.30. And, there's no consistent pattern, either. It's not like he had this 2 or 3 year blip strung together. He's all over the place. Same as his WHIP numbers.I don't know what or who Brad Lidge is. But, what I do know is you can't just look at the back of his baseball card to get any kind of prediction about this guy from one season to the next. So, I don't know how you think it is that he has to turn this around.

Well, if you meant he'd pitch to a 4.5 ERA or so the rest of the way, then I suppose you may be right. I'd submit he is one of the biggest wildcards amongst closers. I could just as easily see him going lights out the rest of the way as I could seeing him lose the closer's role by the AS break.

But, I'll hang with you on this prediction, shady...Lidge will likely end up with more saves than blown saves this year.

I've always had the impression that their flameout in the playoffs after that phenomenal 2001 season was the worst thing that could have happened to them.
