Re: MLB Playoff Predictions [Re: Madtowntripper]

And those posts were made when the bullpen DID suck.

A little math for those of you who can add and subtract. Let me apologize beforehand to those of you from The Bronx and The South Side of Chicago. I'm told basic mathematics haven't quite been incorporated into the educational systems of either one of those shitholes yet.

Cubs Bullpen - (Ryan Dempster + Bob Howry + Rocky Cherry) + (Carlos Marmol + Billy Petrick) = INFINITE IMPROVEMENT.

Its a totally different bullpen. Ask anyone, its been written about ad nauseum in the Chicago Press. If you can't see the difference, you're either blind or a moron.

Or maybe a blind moron. But its pretty fucking obvious.

We were down 12.5 games 3 weeks ago because we COULDNT PITCH IN RELIEF.

Today, we're down 4.5 and we cant score a run to save our soul. I dont think we're winning on our good looks, because most of those guys are ugly as sin. Have you seen Darryl Ward lately?

Bottom line, I'm saying good things about them (The Bullpen) because they ARE good.

If they start to suck, I reserve the right to change my opinion.

I know.

I like penning over-wrought and angsty replies. It makes me feel good about myself.

I, for one, am ecstatic that you resigned Buehrle. If you didn't, he almost for surely would have been a Cardinal next year, no?

I'd much rather he pitch in the AL Central than the NL Central. Unless you trade him to the Cubs. That would make me happy.

Yeah, it's a good possibility that he would have been a Cardinal. Either way, he's my favorite pitcher and I am glad that he has stayed with my favorite team. I hope that he can remain as dominate as he has been this year and not revert to last year when he was absolutely horrible for most of the year. Was it you that had him on your fantasy team last year or was it Nashbar?

me and you are the only ones that know whats up :snub: 

they dont know cause they dont watch.. of course i watch like almost every cubs game.. and yea, the bullpen has been fucking outstanding the past several weeks.. and thats with one of the best closers in the league (dempster) on the DL ... weve been winning all these games and getting a shit load of saves with a different closer almost every night... every guy down there has been getting the job done


oh and last i checked... the yankees seem to be on the fast track to the sewer.. ha

The White Sox will have a good second half. Probably not good enough to do them any good, but they will play a lot better. They played the second half of the season last year with a record similar to what they have so far this year and they still ended up with 90 wins. They have to play right at .700 ball the rest of the year to get to 90 wins. It's possible, but I'm not holding my breath just yet.

even if they do get 90 wins.. it wont do any good.. the AL is too good.. theyll have to get like 99 wins just to get the wildcard probably

I am aware of that. I even said that in my own post. Last year they had 92 or 93 wins and missed the playoffs. But I do not believe that they will finish in the sewer as you suggested.

we'll see whether or not kenny has a fire sale... if he does, then i could easily see them being in the sewer...  i do watch alot of sox games too though.. so i do actualy know a good amount about em :wink: 

i dont have cable, so whenever baseball is on wgn/wciu i watch it... so i get to see like a little over 1/2 of the cubs season and 1/2 the sox season

Yeah, it is impossible to get Chicago's Comcast station up here in Cheeseland.

The cable company here has never even heard of it.

I offered to throw money at them, but no luck.

I may have to get a dish, just so I can get the rest of the Cubs gamew.

Luckily for me MLB tv doesn't black out White Sox or Cubs even though their website says that I am in the blackout range of both teams. It doesn't matter though because I have a dish and get CSN and WGN, but not WCIU.

Even w/ the dish you dont get WCIU?

Yes, well I do live several hours away from Chicago. I'm happy to have CSN.
