Notice the word potential Joey:p

I think the Twins would do more in the postseason than Chicago as things stand, but there's a month to go so who knows, I can't see Detroit going all the way this time, I reckon it'll be between the WC and East winners when it comes down to it, assuming Detroit do win the Central. Although the A's are on a tear right now, 22 of 28 or something, they might finally do what they've been threatening to for a decade...

Yes! I wasn't referring to the WS don't you worry.

lol

Fucking Sox lost last night 6-0, pretty shitty defense mixed with no offense at all usually equals a "L"

Zito with 100. 4th A's pitcher to do so. :y:

Halladay and the Jays VS KC. So what happens? Well of course the Royals hit 2 early solo HRs... d'uh!

Lots of time left for the Jays to win this game, but come on!

Nah man the Jays won't fall off

Grand Slam Ryan Howard. Phils up 5-2 in the 5th

Red Sox pitching gives up a HR to Beltre. Pretty much sums up how poor our pitching is right now.

Yeah

Nick Punto.

The Twins are playing White Sox of '05 ball right now. We are winning the close games and just getting all the breaks. This series definately isn't going to set the wildcard, I think it will come down to the last week, but if the Twins continue to play at this pace, even without Liriano, I think the Twins would be the best bet. Garza will only get better win more starts, as long as Radke doesn't break something he is very solid, and the bullpen is probably the best in baseball right now. Also, the batting order is good 1-9 right now, even the Tyner, White and Bartlett's are connecting. The only problem is if the starting pitching hits the wall before the break, with Garza being a rookie and Radke batting shoulder problems. It is going to be a fun last month though, as I am pretty sure the Tigers, Twins and Sox play each other quite a bit.

Wow just realized how many whiteboys the Twins have who no one cares about

Better than 987654 mediocre Latinos

Minnesota doesn't strike me as the first place Latinos wants to call home.

Why not?

I know it's cool to bash Beltre because his offensive numbers have nosedived, but he's not *that* bad.

Saying they nosedived implies he was an offensive powerhouse, he was infact a one-year wonder.

And yeah he's not THAT bad, but come on what the fuck was that season all about?

Ortiz with 99 stolen bases. Nice. ;)

My gift to stima

Hafner's got 108 and Dye's close behind Ortiz with 95.

...you know, these 3 guys don't get enough praise for their running game.

Ah atleast Ortiz hit a homerun

2003 - G 158, H 134, HR 23, RBI 80, TB 237, BA .240, OBP .290

2004 - G 156, H 200, HR 48, RBI 121, TB 376, BA .334, OBP .388

2005 - G 156, H 154, HR 19, RBI 87, TB 249, BA .255, OBP .303

:wtf:

wow i love john maine so much. probably a fluke run though :foc:

Mets magic number is 20. :y:

ct2k, his 2005 numbers were better than those in 2003, what's your point?

His numbers are pretty similar in 2003/2005. So 2004 was a fluke, pretty obvious what his point was.

His numbers besides 2004 are incredibly average, 290 OBP? Come on. He has been better this year, but still, I don't get it. To me a fluke is Orlando Hernandez hitting a grand slam, Beltre must've had a season full of flukes:|

Beltre has been that bad. He ranked 10th in both OBP and SLG last year out of 11 AL 3B, beating only Aaron Boone. This year he is currently ranked 9th in OBP behind Crede and Inge, who unlike Beltre, play stellar defense. He is one of the 2 or 3 worst third-basemen in the AL, offensively and defensively (thank god for Beltre third base is one of Figgins' 57 positions).

I don't think I have to bring up the kazillion dollar contract

I bet he's fucking brilliant on triple play 2007 or whatever

Little League World Series is like a game of kickball, someone hits a groundball to the left side and it is a base hit.

wooo got tickets to last game of season nationals vs mets

lol they are like 10

haha denis leary and lenny bruce are pretty fuckin funny
