Yeah but what does that say when you look at the number of championships or even trips to the Series you guys have had in that time? You're the Buffalo Bills of the NL. :smirk: :wink:

lol, i was expecting that, good point.  i dont really dislike the yankees, its kinda hard not to, but i was pulling for boston the whole time.

and the braves budget is $80 million.  how many times that much is A-rods contract?  lol i always loved that visa commercial where steinbrenner was trying to sign the check, but his hand was hurt...  :rofl2:

:lol: well I agree with you there the Yankees need to hire someone to smack steinbrenner in the head occasionally and tell him to stop being stupid with his money.  Brian Cashman is a whipped yes man like everyone else in the yankee organization if they coupled steinbrenners bottomless wallet with someone that actually understood the game of baseball the yankees might be unstoppable

Ugh, I love how nobody picked the White Sox last year, but now they won the championship, and everyone fucking gushes over them. I hate the White Sox so fucking much.

I'm sorry, but they won ALOT of very close games, and ended up almost giving away their playoff spot in the end as it was. I predict they dont even make the playoffs this year, much less beat the Cardinals (!!) in the World Series...

And dont get me started on the Cardinals....

Still gotta score some runs....

Who's putting up runs? Paulie? Thats it. Thome? MAYBE. If he's not hurt. Jermaine Dye wasnt nearly as good during the season as he was during the playoffs. I have very little confidence in any of their other hitters...

Find me ONE person before last season who said that the White Sox had one of the best rotations in baseball...nobody did, much less had them picked to win the Series....

Before last year, Beuhrle and Garland werent living up to their potential and Garland was considered a bust by many in Chicago, Contreras was a head-case, and El Duque was a "Maybe 35-Maybe 45" year old guy w/ a bad arm and a big head.

You cant draw on last years performance to say how people are going to pitch.  Sabathia is a fucking HORSE.  Cleveland almost closed a 15 game gap in the last month of the season w/ their "Charmin Soft" rotation.

I dont mean to come across as a Cleveland shill, I dont really even watch AL baseball...But I do hate the white sox.  :evil:

I picked the White Sox last year, but they are my team so I guess it doesnt count even though I was very optimistic about their season after they made the Podsednik deal.

If podsednik can stay healthy then he will score a lot of runs again. I think Joe Crede will have a much better year this year. He played all last season with a couple herniated discs in his back. If he stays healthy h is offense will improve a lot I think. He's already one of the best defensive third basemen.

I really don't think Thome is that big of an issue. They went all last year with pretty much one home run threat, although Dye did hit 31 Hrs and had 86 RBIs. Dye should have similar numbers this year.

Not to mention, Brian Anderson. He's a rookie, so there is no saying how he is going to do but he has a hell of a lot of potential. They traded away Aaron Rowand to make room for him to come up and play center field. And Aaron Rowand is an excellent center fielder, so that says a lot about this kid.

And man, Buehrle not living up to his potential until last year? Wow...The only stat that he had a career year in was ERA. He's won more games than he did last year. He lost 8 games last year, which tied a career low. His walks were lower, but he has always been known for not walking many batters.He didn't even have a career high in innings pitched. In fact, if you want to check out his stats, his best year was 2001. So if he wasn't living up to his potential then, then he certainly wasn't last year either. He's won 14 or more games for 5 straight years. Pitched over 220 inning 5 straight years. Over 5 years he has averaged right around 2 walks per 9 innings.

Sorry, I'm not trying to be a dick, but that's my team and Buehrle is my man.

phbphbhpbhbpbh.

White Sox Suck. Do you live in the city? I'd need an escort down to the South Side, as I'd hate to be mugged/raped/robbed, or all 3, on my way to the game. I dont even like to right the l sout of downtown...
