Thome carried a team that came out of NOWHERE and led a team that was in first place most of the season to another division title with the reigning MVP.

...Even if I THOUGHT it was cool, I'm sure it doesn't "compare" to your "cool" idea of using a nick that rhymes with Hakeem Olajuwon.

I thank God for the Pirates every day, they cushion the Cubs from the bottom of the division, even though the Cubbies couldn't beat them to save their lives this year.

Gentlemen, it's time.
Here's hoping Roy Halladay can't take the pressure of his first postseason appearance. |

Halladay sucking in the playoffs would be incredible. I have my doubts but in a 3-game series you never know for sure. Plenty of Division Series upsets over the years. I remember nobody giving the Tigers a snowball's chance in hell of beating the Yankees in 2006.
Reds carrying 4 lefties in the bullpen to neutralize Utley, Howard, and Ibanez. Smart move. |

I kinda have to agree. Did they put Burnett in the bullpen or did both of them not make the roster? I think this all but seals the deal that Vasquez is gone in the off season.

It's 1-0 in the second inning and it already feels like the game is over thanks to fuckin Halladay.

Congrats to Halladay. He just sealed his spot in the HOF.
But I gotta say, that was the most boring no-hitter ever. Just in the sense that after the 4th inning it looked obvious. Usually you are shocked if the no-hitter gets completed. Tonight I would have been shocked to see them get a hit. |

That's what I mean. He was ridiculous. By the 5th inning the no-hitter just felt like a formality. Nobody even got good swings off, fouled off pitches, made you THINK a hit could come. The guy was on cruise control.
In that sense, it was drama-less. The disbelief never got suspended. Good for him obviously. He's the best pitcher in the game, and it's not even close. |
