hell yeah my brotha! im not a big giants fan but i gotta give em props on what they are doing this year, tearing up the nl west. i am a mariners fan myself, and a true one, not a bandwagon one who started likin em after they won 116 games in 2001.

this is exactly what they did last year...they were doing great up until the all star break and then started to suck it up. kazuhiro sasaki is coming back but shigetosi hasagawa is doing a great job so i dont know if kaz will get his spot back. freddy garcia, our former ace, has one more chance before hes put into the bullpen. if he is, then new guy rafael soriano will become our new starter, which i think would be pretty tight. winn and olerud, mostly defensive players have been stepping up offensively lately. winn has like 3 times as many home runs after the all star break than he did before and olerud just put 2 out for a 7 rbi game, pretty good for a guy with only like 7-8 homers this year. they are a great regular season team, but as everybody knows, regular season dont mean SHIT.Originally posted by fizzbob7
what's up with them......i'm sure they'll get it together, but slumping a bit recently

haven't been into baseball much basically since the strike a few years back. but i've always been a dodgers fan, though they haven't played to well recently. this year the pitchers are finally getting it done, but the bats are horrible.
big bonds fan though (since he was a pirate)... so when the dodgers don't make the playoffs, i'll root for the giants. as long as someone represents the nl besides the damn braves (kinda ironic since i currently live in atlanta).
absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.Comment

holy shit dood...u have no idea how much my love for ichiro is...he isnt my favorite player but i just fuckin love how suave and badass he is. we were at a mariners game before and if youve ever been to safeco field before, they have a big screen that they show players faces on when they are at bat, like many other ball parks, and inbetween innings they showed a video of the players talking about who was their favorite player on the team and people would say....ehh moyer hes a great pitcher, ehh boone hes got power and average, and then ichiro came up with a backwards mariner hat and dark oakleys on and just says 'me.' it was priceless. hes cocky but i love itOriginally posted by DsR_CB7

the only time i ever see him saying somethin is in like an after game report when hes like 'yeah we did really well' through a translator or something. what i love about ichiro is that after being the 7 time batting title champ in japan, he comes over and wins the al batting title with a .350 average, not toooo shabby! but with matsui, no disrespect to him or anything, he is way too hyped up. hes the home run champ over there with 50+ each season or whatever and has what, 13? thats only 3 more than ichiro who is infamous for being an all average little power hitterOriginally posted by DsR_CB7

post your predictions for the division champs and wild card winners....
al east, new york
al central, kc
al west, SEATTLE MARINERS
al wild card, oakland/boston (tough choice, most likely oakland)
nl east, braves
nl central, st. louis (must respect pujols)
nl west, giants
nl wild card, florida/d backs

i think that my predictions would be pretty much the same as yours, but oakland might catch up to the mariners and take the west and then it would be between boston and seattle with seattle taking wild card (since im an oakland fan)...and out in the national league id go with florida with dontrell willis taking the wild card..i think that they are playing harder than the d backs since they are thirsty to get back to the playoffs..even though the d backs got the two big pitchers...Comment
