2008 MLB predictions - leucetios - 06-03-2008
For the 2008 MLB season I predict that Americans will put on a collective total of 1.5 million lbs from hot dogs alone.

Why would road games matter to steroid users?I don't get it.
I do think its obvious nobodies really juicing anymore when you have small guys like Utley close to the top in homers.

not steroids... uppers. They cracked down on everything.

Jayson Stark is a tool.

just watched Ruiz hit into a double play to kill an inning with the bases loaded.
Moyer is doing his usual workman like job.

Ruiz blows.
Moyer stayed one innning to long.
Oh well at least we don't have a 150 million dollar pitcher giving up game winning grand slams to other pitchers.

Yo. I haven't checked in for a while. What's up? Did you want to bash the shitty underperforming Mets, or gloat about Philly shitting the bed and going 2-8 in their last 10?

I'd like to bash the shitty mets if you will have it.Still think Reyes is better than Rollins?Jimmys slumping but we all know the guys clutch when he has to be.Besides the Rangers the Phil's lost to all solid teams.They've hit a bit of a crossroads with Meyer and the rest of the pitching staff so a little bumpyness is to be expected.They are still going to run away with the division.
Jerry Manuel seems like the stable force the mets need to get back on track.I threaten to stab my employees all the time if they give me any trouble.I'm sure Billy Wagner has his back.Do you realize the mets might be close to blowing up their team after you thought they were world series bound this time last year?You can admit you'd trade lineups with the phillies in a heartbeat.You're among friends, I won't laugh at you.

I WOULD SWITCH. And no embarassment on my end. Mets have about 4 players in the whole 8 man starting roster (minus pitcher) who are hitters (Reyes, Wright, Beltran, Church). Of those, only 2 are really hitting. Clearly, having Alou and Church out for that time hurts. Big dip in the power numbers for us. I mean come on, fucking TROT NIXON?
Phils have a total stud in Utley, Howard is slumping but could be a great player, Rollins is great too. Vittorino for Beltran? No way. I'll take Philly's double-A catcher though, because I hate both of ours.
Seems like nobody wants the Eastern Division right now. Watching what should be a potent offense fall on its face night after night is making me wretch. I'm sure you feel the same the last 10-12 games or so.
It should be an interesting series coming up, dude. At least from an emotional standpoint ><
2008 MLB predictions - BIRD33 - 07-01-2008
Victorino is suspect.
This current slump the Phil's are in doesnt worry me to much.We started out hot which they never do so they were kind of due to slip up a bit.
The Brett Myers saga continues.Can someone explain to me how he was our opening day starter over Hamels?I guess Benson will be his replacment.I just hope his(bensons) wife stays away.
Whats got me worried is the Mets have had a terrible start, fired their manager and are only 4 games or so back.Anything can happen.
2008 MLB predictions - WoolyGoat - 07-02-2008
the national league is still laughable.
pedro, nixon...get fuckin keith foulke and grady little in there, you guys should be all set!

Since I've never heard of it happening and I'm pretty much an authority yea I don't believe thats ever happened.
Its always how everybody else has done the same thing to explain bad behavior in boston.
