Haven't seen this mentioned here...but did you know the Cubs/Brewers series this week is not only for the World Series, but if the Cubs win, it might bring world peace? Good grief, ESPN SportsCenter this morning must have dedicated 10 minutes to the game, and even had Pedro Gomez there to report on the series.

 

 

no s***.

 

 

The Sox/Twins highlights were 29 minutes into the 40 minute Baseball Tonight program last night.

Imagine how s***ty we'd be with an OF of Swisher/Owens/Dye.

Gomez, watching too much Jim Edmonds lately?

Double my ass...give that boy the errah he deserves.

Yes they are. Still, I can't believe some people are conceeding the WS to them.

 

 

well if you have to pick a frontrunner they're definitely it, having all their games TV'd here, it's very clear how much better balanced they are than any other team, starting pitching, setup, closer, major power, speed at almost every position, and everyone can lay down bunts and go opposite field...pretty daunting....I hated them when I moved here 5 yrs ago and absolutely loved the Sox taking them out in the ALCS, but over time their class organization and continuous flow of quality minor leaguers has won me over as a fan

I don't get it. I'm not a huge fan of their rotation for the playoffs. Doesn't scare me. On top of of it, I don't think there bullpen is as good as people think it is.

 

 

Great team, but not a sure fire bet for the playoffs.

 

Really? Lackey, Santana (at home), Saunders, Weaver, and Garland are pretty solid to me.

 

I still think Lackey is underrated. I mean he is only no hitting Boston right now.

How many excuses has Hawk had for Gomez already.......

Hawk would have sex with this entire Twins entity.

Big run out there Thome.

I think the Cubs would pound the Angels in that match-up.

Twins should just walk Thome, for capn sucky

Just about our entire team, besides Ramirez, needs to cut down on their swing.

Really? Even with Texeira now? I would take the Halos rotation over the Cubs..even with Zambrano.

Fields' looks quicker and shorter than I remember

I have only seen 1.5 innings, but Richard seems to be making the lefties roll over on everything.

Cubs pitchers do a reall good job of holding base runners, and I still have questions about the Angels offense. The Angels catching position is weak.

Cancel thy postgame show, as Willie Mays Jr singles.

Go figure.

Go figure.

 

It's moot.

 

Mets/Phils/Brew Crew will make the series

Clayton looks pretty damn good. Feel free to TAKE YOUR TIME BACK JOSE!!!!!

Go figure.

2008 Cubs > 1927 Yankees

Clayton's induced about 57 grounders so far today.
