So here's the new baseball thread!



My Giants suck total arse right now. :mad:
We'll have to have a phenominal second half to even begin to look towards the post season. :(

Well, my Cubs are actually playing pretty well right now, the only problem is that St. Louis is so far ahead of every one in the division. :mad: *mutters random nonsense about his dislike of the Cardinals* :mad: Hopefully we'll be able to get into the playoffs, we just need to play better than we did yesterday. (15-5? How embarassing :( )

The Cubs are very much in the wildcard race. I dont see them catching the Cards for the division though. They're just to damn good.

And how about those Nationals! They're having a great season. That's cool to see.

go brewers!!! i know they wont make it but..eh..GO BREWERS!

go brewers!!! i know they wont make it but..eh..GO BREWERS!
The Brewers arent having a bad season so far. But there is still alot of baseball to play. lol

I've always kinda liked the Brewers for some reason...I think it's the name. :cool:

Ever since I came back from Wisconsin in April, I've been all like "YAY BREWERS!!!!". :p

But yeah. I still love the Anti-Yankees (BOSOX/NYMETS).

Wooohooo Anti-Yankees/Brewers!!

lol@ anti-yankees.
I'm all the way over here in Cali and I hate the yankees too! I love that they're playing so shitty right now. :p


O_o. The Giants are tied 7-7 with the Twins right now. It's in the 9th.

We gots to wizzzzin!!@!1

Oh, shut up, anti-Yankee bastards. The Yanks won't keep doing bad for too long! They're even coming back now! How about Giambi's homer? Huh? Now gimme my calzone, George!

P.S. Lol at your custom title. Staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan Darsh! Darshy darsh darsh!

Go Red Sox. :D

No seriously, I do not care if it will have to take another 86 years to win another world series, I must show pride for this delicious team. Bambino, bring it on! Amen.

They are doing pretty well. I don't like the Cardinals and I have this feeling that the Cubs will be far behind them in second place. It was embarassing yesturday.

But BTW- I'm a Cubs fan.

My fantasy baseball team is in first place by 4.5 games! WOOT!%#%!#^

My team is killing everybody dead.

Jorge Posada, David Ortiz, Derek Jeter, Carlos Beltran, AND Ichiro...not to mention having one of baseball's biggest winners this year in Roy Halladay.

When we rule, everybody dies.

The All Star rosters have been announced.

American (http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/allstar05/news/story?id=2100024) League roster.

National (http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/allstar05/news/story?id=2093287) League roster.

Go Red Sox!!!!!! Johnny Damon for president!!!!!! LOL.

They keep losing to Toronto, and Toronto's not even that good. Boston is still first in their division...but not by much. We need Schilling back!!!!!

The home run derby will be on tonight @ 8PM ET.

I'm predicting Mark Texiera from the Rangers to win it all.


Also, the starting pitchers have been announced for the All-Star game tomorrow.

Chris Carpenter- St. Louis Cardinals
Mark Buehrle- Chicage White Sox

Johnny Damon for president!!!!!! LOL.


Woot Woot. he's got my vote.

i love the Mets, being that I live in Flushing. But, even though they are in last place for the division, and 8 games away from first, at least we are at 500. I was mad at the beginning of the season when we got Pedro...i really hated him. but he's proved his shit, so yay!!!

my poor Mientkiewicz on the DL, but man oh man, David Wright has been kicking majot buttocks lately ( actually, I thought he was, but looking at his stats it shows differently :confused: ). Plus, Beltran has been doing an awesome job in the field all season!

YOU GOTTA BELIEVE!!!

Tomorrow is the All-Star game. That should be good.

Midseason thoughts:

Fuck the Yankees and trade Braden Looper kthx.

My midseason thoughts:

COME BACK BARRY!

Bobby Abreu is putting on a fucking show right now.

24 homeruns and the second longest HR in Derby history at 517 feet. And it's the first round

I could'nt believe my feakin' eyes. He just kept hittin' & hittin" & hittin' & hittin'....lol.

Yep Abreu won too. Good for him, though I was rooting for David Ortiz.

Yes I'm a total hometown fan.

Things are nice and dandy down here in the NL Eastern. The Braves are really going to have to work for the Division Title this year with the Washington Nationals kicking ass all the time. At least it's more entertaining than usual.

The Braves have good bats this year even without Larry in the line up this time around. Our pitching is basically average. It's been nice seeing the Braves have to convert to a more cunning defensive/strong hitting team over the last few seasons. They're really going to have to kick it into gear by August. There's no way they'd survive as a wildcard team.

Even if they make Division they'll be destroyed in the NL playoffs. Such is baseball. The Braves have had their glory years now Braves fans have to buckle up for a few rough seasons. My money is on the Nationals for division but the Braves might pull it off.

Just months after Rafael Palmeiro testified before congress that he never used steroids, and days after he recorded his 3,000th hit, he has been suspended for steroid abuse.

I was reading this and like WTF....did someone hild him down and forcibly inject him. Or did someone say, "here Rafael, take some of this candy. No, it's not steroids, it's candy, and it will make you play better." I find it very hard to believe he was not a willing participant. he got caught in his lie and is now trying to safe face.

sorry, but this is just too funny. i love it when this stuff comes back to bite them.

oh, and one more thing, Go Angels! woohoo!

oh, and one more thing, Go Angels! woohoo!
I'm first and foremost a Giants fan. My # 2 team is the A's though. They're right on your ass in the division. :cool:

I'm first and foremost a Giants fan. My # 2 team is the A's though. They're right on your ass in the division. :cool:

yep, it was a tough series between the Yanks. i watched one night, they had a lead like 7-3 and blew it. there was a similar thing the next night. yanks pulled it out like 8-7. it's okay, we kicked em' pretty good when they came here.

I'm first and foremost a Giants fan. My # 2 team is the A's though. They're right on your ass in the division. :cool:

Dude, the A's are my #3 team behind the Cubs and the Giants. At least one of my top three has a chance to win their division.:rolleyes: *mutters about the Cubs*:mad:

Victor Zambrano can kiss my ass. What the F are we paying him for? He gave up 4 home runs in 8 batter in the first 2 inning. And Beltran...6 at bats and not a single freakin hit???

I was at the game last night, and well, thank god for Mike Cameron. He got the job done when he needed to. And Cairo and Mietkiewicz also have impressive numbers for last night.

it was a great game, except i could not stay till the end because I had to get up early for work. That, and the obnoxious Brewers fans sitting in front of me.

The A's are 33-7 in their last 40 games. The last team to have a stretch that good in 40 games were the 98' Yankees.

The A's are no fuckin' joke.

*mutters about the Cubs*:mad:
Tell me about it. It's almost embarrassing to talk about them. It's embarrassing living around here, and knowing they will lose pretty much everyday. Surprised they didn't blow it yesterday. :rolleyes:

I actually had something to cheer about in this abismal season that has been the '05 Giants.

Randy Winn hit for the cycle yesterday! woot!

What an amazing year for the Red Sox and the Yankees. Both 91-64 going into the last week of the regular season. You can't ask for anything more except for another gem of a series at the end of the season and maybe even again in the playoffs.

On top of that Cleveland and Chicago are also going to battle it out for the end of the season. 4 teams battling for 3 spots. Who makes it in?

I think it'll be Boston, Cleveland, and the Yankees. Somehow lol.

The Giants actually have a shot at the playoffs, despite being 9 games under 500.(god the N.L. West is garbage) We're 4 games back of the Padres with 7 games left in the season. We start a crucial 4 games series with the Padres today. With Barry back in the lineup anything is possible...

(My rants on the game shall start...)

Has anyone, besides me, been watching the game between the Indians and the White Sox?!?! It's top of the 13th! Game's tied 1-1! We (Indians) NEED to win; the Yankees lost, because they're mean like that... meh! I'll be up all night waiting for this game to end. Argh... the bases were freaking loaded and we got out, we are just retarded right now.

EDIT: ARGH! It's 3-1 White Sox now. I'm just so depressed; if the Indians do not win this for me, I will be so sad. Why must they always get my hopes up like this? Just to dash them ::sigh:: C'mon Indians... please please please win the game.

EDIT 2: I'm just going to bury my disappointment that is the Indians in the background where I can't let it upset me. I cannot believe they hit a home run in the 13th... way too little, too late. Man. We could have had that game twice... now we're an entire game behind instead of just half a game. :( I'm so sad. 3-2 that's just poo.

End.

Cleveland now has to win their game today. If Cleveland loses, then the fate of the playoffs is not in their hands anymore. There would have to be a sweep in the Boston-Yankees series by Boston for Cleveland to get in. Cleveland though has to win at least one game in this series to stay in it.

Whatever happens, if your fan of baseball, it's going to be quite an exciting 2 days.

Whatever happens, if your fan of baseball, it's going to be quite an exciting 2 days.

I agree with that:D

Go Red Sox!!!!!!!!!

and for the 8th consecutive year the Yankees have won the A.L. east.

shucks.

and for the 8th consecutive year the Yankees have won the A.L. east.

shucks.

>.< *kicks the Yankees* God I hate them.... but at least the wildcard is still interesting. If Boston wins tomorrow and Cleveland wins, then they have to play a playoff game against each other to see who goes to the playoffs and who doesn't.:eek: This will be interesting.:)

hokey dokey. Here's how the playoff series stand right now.

National League

Houston/Atlanta - tied a game a piece.

St. Louis/San Diego - Cards up 2-0.

American League

New York/L.A. - Tied a game a piece.

Boston/Chicago - Chicago up 2-0.

I smell a sweep of the BoSox. They're gonna have to face Freddie Garcia in game 3. That guy is filthy.

Lee Corso says: Not so fast!

I don't think Boston's going to win the series but at the same time, I don't see them giving up a sweep so easily.

White Sox in 4.

Braves will take the NL...my prediction.

They looked like the bejesus last night. Smoltzie was totally on and, I must say, the Braves have two HUGE things going for them that over the course of 20 years watching them I have never seen in the post season:

1. Obscenely incredible defensive stats: out and in.

2. Reallllllllyyy good rookies. I mean wow GOOD players i.e. Francoeur and McCann.

It'll be fun to watch the rest of the Houston series.


Just supporting the home team. Go Braves!

I smell a sweep of the BoSox. They're gonna have to face Freddie Garcia in game 3. That guy is filthy.
My smeller was right. :cool: Boston got swept. 5-3 was the final.

Chicago wins their first playoff series in over 80 years.

Bwahaha, the Yankees lost again. That puts the Angel up 2-1. Not that I particularly like the Angels, but I take a perverse pleasure in watching the Yankees fail. *evil grin*

Haha! Boston's out of it! :D You ain't so tough now huh BoSox?? :p Sorry, had to get that out...Though I'm kind of sad that they got eliminated because a Yankees' and Boston match-up is always exciting. Staying up for extra innings is fun!

I'm still kinda worried about mah Yanks :( But, I can't make assumptions yet, they may be down, but not out!

OUCH Craig!

That game must have been brutal for you yesterday....

Omg, Yanks' game is on now...how nerve-racking!!! I'm gonna try to stay up as long as I can for the game. Hehe, when they were going to the commercial break for the top of the first inning, they played BMTL :D I thought that was cool, Ev and Yanks, two of my favorite things ;) Anyways, GO YANKS!!

All I have to say is GO CARDS!!!! and Eckstein rocked on saturday yea baby :)

Woohoo! 5-2 Angels, bot 4th. i know posting this is gonna come back to bite me now.

angel82, Eckstein rocks!(former Angel)

WOOOOOOOHOOOOO! 5-3 Angels, Final

You will have to surgically remove the smile off of my face after tonight's game where the Angels beat the Yankees for the 2nd time in recent postseason memory.

Gotta hand it to Santana, he pitched one hell of a game.

Now the game for tomorrow morning is Steinbrenner Stew.

My smeller was right. :cool: Boston got swept. 5-3 was the final.

Chicago wins their first playoff series in over 80 years.

ROFL and everyone is so optomistic saying they'll go to the World Series. Yeah, I dont know if they did go, I doubt they would win.

*is very happy today* I knew the Angels wouldn't do me wrong!!!!!!

Ummmmmm.......*sneaks into thread*.........go 'Stros!!!!:D

Grrrr...You have no idea how mad I am that the Yankees lost!!! :mad: by the 8th inning, I knew they'd lose, so I didn't bother watching...had to spare my eyes from that nasty loss.*coughbyebyeTorrecough* Ah well, at least they outlasted the BoSox :p

Hey Yankees fans!


2 years.

Over $400 million dollars on players.

NOTHING TO SHOW FOR IT!

Enjoy the off season.
Again.

:p :D :p

What a wild ending to the White Sox-Angels game tonight.

Kelvim Escobar of the Angels pitches what looked like strike three to end the ninth and then A.J. Pierzynski apparently not seeing or hearing an out call runs to first base and gets awarded first base after the home plate umpire reverses his own call.

The rule is if the ball doesn't reach the catcher's glove and the batter swings on strike three, they may run to first base. It's the only way you can get 4 strikeouts in an inning.

That led to a stolen base and a game winning hit by Joe Crede.

It doesn't really mean anything now since the game is over, but will this be enough to get instant replay talk once again going over the winter meetings?

ohh baby cards win 5-3

last night was BS:mad:

last night was BS:mad:

Yeah I know what you mean, after many hours of being on life suppot, my remote did not make it. It seems Remotes dont like meeting walls, go figure.....

Reguardless of that whole crazy play in the Sox/Angels game, you DON'T throw a ball right down the middle on an 0-2 count to Crede.

they just played bring me to life at the end of the top of the 9th on the Cards vs. Astros!!

looks like cards will lose boohoo.. Astros up 4-1 at the bottom of 9th

Astros up 4-1 at the bottom of 9th
w00tage!!!!!!!!:D Go 'Stros!!!!!!!

doesn't look good for the Angels, 5-0 bot 6th:(

The Houston Astros are one win away from their first World Series ever and The Chicago White Sox are looking for their first World Series in 56 years.

As of this post, they are three outs away.

Angels fans will likely never forget the name of Anthony John Pierzynski after this series.

In yet another controversial play, Kelvim Escobar tags A.J. with the glove but the ball is in his bare hand and therefore is safe at first base.

Joe Crede, who's been giving the Angels all sorts of problems this series gave them yet another when he hit a bleeder up the middle that gave the White Sox the lead yet again.

The White Sox at this point are up 5-3 with nobody out in the top of the 9th.

At this point, the Angels had better hope for a Boston like comeback. It's happened before and is not impossible...but at this point it looks like the White Sox are the team to beat. Period.

Edit: The White Sox have made it. Great accomplishment for the Sox.

Angels fans, as Joe Buck said, are among the classiest fans in baseball. Had a hell of a season and beating the Yankees is not something I'd consider to be an easy task.

Such a great series for the Sox. Great starting pitching and at this point while the Astros and Cardinals are both strong teams, I have to consider the Sox as favorites if they were to face either or.

They've got a rested bullpen that's for damn sure.

Edit 2: Mike Scioscia is officially my favorite coach in baseball. He was dejected obviously, but was classy in defeat.

And this is why I love sports.

Who the hell would of thought the White Sox would be in the World Series at the beginning of the season..

And this is why I love sports.

Who the hell would of thought the White Sox would be in the World Series at the beginning of the season..

NO ONE. I bet not even the Sox fans thought it would happen, sure they dream about it every year. but it is the WHITE SOX thats almost like having the Bears go to the superbowl stuff like this doesnt happen. I cant go anywhere without someone saying ANYTHING about the Sox. Congrats to them for doing the impossible.

Come on Astros!!!

OUCH. That must of hurt if you're an Astros fan. One strike away from making your first World Series appearence, and Pujols cranks one to send it back to St.Louis. OUCH.

OUCH. That must of hurt if you're an Astros fan. One strike away from making your first World Series appearence, and Pujols cranks one to send it back to St.Louis. OUCH.

I just knew that once the Fox announcers gave a history lesson on how the Astros had lost all these games when they were so close to getting to the World Series that them getting to the World Series at least for now...is too good to be true.

You'd better hope that you win Game 6 because if the Cards win Game 6, they're winning the series...but Astros fans, they've beaten the Cards at Busch AND you're still up 3-2.

THAT was frickin amazing! I was about to bust out of my seat in anxiety! Eckstein up after 2 outs hits.. steals to second.. edmonds up hits goes to first with eckstein on third.. then PUJOLS the mighty mighty PUJOLS comes to bat hits an amazingly awesome home run to put the cardinals up to win 5-4... Busch Stadium has NOT seen it's last game... bringin em back home to show them true SHOW ME st. louis style :) YEA BABY!!! woooooooooo

Quite frankly if I were Brad Lidge, no offense to his talent as a closer, but had I been in his position, I'd have completely bitched out to Pujols. I would have intentionally walked the bases loaded...because if you think about it they could have given up a base hit and the worse thing that would have happened is that they'd have had tied the game.

Bottom line, I don't think I'd have pitched to Pujols in a situation with the game on the line like that.

Since I did not watch the game.......this is the fist I am hearing about their loss. Bummer!

I just went to What If Sports and did a simulation based on tonight's lineups.

It has the St. Louis Cardinals winning 5-3 tonight.

Well, they were wrong. :p Considering St.Louis is down 5-1 in the 8th right now.

Looks like it's gonna be a Sox/Stros World Series(unless there's some more late inning heroics by the Cards of course)

There will be some exellent pitching match-ups with those 2 clubs.

Yep, it's official. The Astros are in the World Series for the fist time in club history. All I have to say now is, GO WHITE SOX!!:D

Go Astros!

I've never been this excited about sports ... ever.

Go Astros!

I've never been this excited about sports ... ever.
Oh man, you aint seen nuthin yet bro. Just wait till the Series actually starts! Every pitch you're on the edge of your seat! And I mean EVERY pitch!

I think it's great the Biggio and Bagwell finally get to go to a World Series. They have a combined 33 years of being in the bigs, and this will be their first trip there. That's awesome.

Well pooey, now that my team is out (Cards), I am cheering for the Sox!!

I hope they pwn. :)

*jumps up and down* YAY!!!!!! First time ever for the Astros! w00t! I may have to actually watch some baseball.:rolleyes: :p

Go Astros!!!!!! I don't care all that much, I just hate the White Sox and their jackass coach...plus the Rocket is amazing.

White Sox won game 1. Let's see if that wasnt just a fluke. Game 2 tonight.

Damn sox *******.

Go Astros!

I can't believe what I just saw...

The Chicago White Sox, down 2 runs in the 7th inning, load the bases up for Paul Konerko and Houston puts in one of their most reliable bullpen pitchers Qualls.

Konerko, reminiscent of the Pujols homer in the NLCS hits a grandslam and puts the Sox up 6-4.

You would think that was the death blow, right? Wrong!

Bobby Jenks came up and blew the lead with a 2 run single by Jose Vizcaino.

But the White Sox came up and made up for that with a game winning homerun by Scott Podsednik, putting the Sox up 2-0 going back to Houston.

What a game.

Scott Podsednik didn't have a homerun in the regular season and came up HUMONGOUS tonight. 2nd homerun in this postseason.

Even though they are up 2-0...anything can happen.

That game was crazyyyy!!!

Poor Luna! :p

Forget the Sox. I'm from Chicago, and I hope the Sox LOSE. Go Astros..lol:D

Go Astros!!! I hate sports but hey, they're from Houston, I'm from Houston, we all rock. Lol...

Forget the Sox. I'm from Chicago, and I hope the Sox LOSE. Go Astros..lol:D

Silly Cubs fan...

20characters

That game was crazyyyy!!!

Poor Luna! :p

Poor me :(

Well this series is all but over. The White Sox are just to damn good. There is no way the Stros' will rattle off 4 in a row...

Tell that to the Bosox...

I still don't think they can beat the White Sox. ;P

Considering they were the only team to EVER come back down 3-0 in a best of 7 series, I'm guessing it's not going to happen 2 years in a row. I bet we dont see anything like that again for a very long time. Sure it's possible, but HIGHLY unlikely. Especially when you look at the White Sox pitching and their clutch hitting. Plus they have won 15 of their last 16 games. They're just a better team, period.

As good as the Astros have been overall, they're overmatched.

They've had chances to win 2 games in a row and this thing could have been Astros 2-1, but the bullpen and in last night's case the starting pitching couldn't hold on.

If the Sox don't win tonight, they'll win it in 5.

:). *points at edit*

I agree.

:). *points at edit*

I agree.
Yea, that's what I thought biotch!! :p

They've had chances to win 2 games in a row and this thing could have been Astros 2-1, but the bullpen and in last night's case the starting pitching couldn't hold on.
Plus they can't hit with runners in scoring position AT ALL.

Why is it that any team with the word 'Sox' in it is good?? I know that has nothing to do with how a team plays, but still, I think that's kind of a weird coincidence...I really don't care who wins (since mah Yanks didn't even make it :mad: ) even though I'm feelin' kinda bad for the 'Stros, since this is their first trip to the World Series, and they were so close, but the Sox are looking sharp. This isn't a sympathy contest, so let the best team win...

ROF'ngL @ the Git 'r Done sign I just saw.

Right now 1-0 Sox.

3 outs away.

Edit 1: 2 outs away and a runner on second. Chris Burke is up.

Edit 2: Holy fucking shit at Juan Uribe. That is the catch of the year...possibly quite literally. One out away. But there's still a runner on second. Base hit ties it.

Edit 3: One strike away. WHITE SOX WIN!@% Oh My God!

Those last two defensive plays Uribe made were amazing!! Especially the catch for out #2.

Congrats to the White Sox, they were definitely the best team and deserve to be champs.

Poor Astros, couldnt hit with RISP for the life of them. Since they scored their last run in the 8th inning yesterday, they left 18 men on base! Ouch!

Give it up for the Astros though. Great year for them. They kept every game close this series and had they faced any less of a team, I think they could have swept the other way.

The Sox though were 12-1 during this post season and their loss came in another very close game...they were pretty much untouchable.

It's been strange times since 2001. 3 of the last 4 teams to win the World Series only won the Wild Card and the last two teams hadn't won their last World Series since the 1910s and whereas it was the White Sox winning first and the BoSox winning in '17 and '18 respectively, it was the other way around in these past two years.

2001-D'Backs
2002-Angels
2003-Marlins
2004-Red Sox
2005-White Sox

...who's next?

...who's next?
THE GIANTS!!!!

I can only pray...:p

[edit] Curse those rechid 02' Angels!! We were 6 friggin outs awayyyyyyy!!!!!

...who's next?

The Cubs (ha ha ha, not really)

Two curses have been broken in just as many years. Maybe the cubs should start letting people bring goats to the game!

The cubs...now that would be nice!

...who's next?Me! :D

So the Mets made two big moves last off-season to get Beltran and Martinez, and have wasted to time this off-season. Carlos Delgado and Billy Wagner will now be sporting Mets jersey's in the upcoming season.

I'm sure this puts a smile on your face Chris. :)

And mine!!! Woohoo. I am sandwiched in between 2 hard-core mets fans at work. This is all they've talked about all day.

Whoa, Johnny Damon is a Yankee!!! That'll be kinda weird seeing him in pin stripes. I'm also guessing the beard and the hair will get chopped too. haha.


The giants have picked up Matt Morris and Steve Finley so far. I'm happy with that. :)

Yes, he HAS to shave and cut his hair. Clubhouse rule.

I was upset at first, cause I love Johnny...but then I realized he'll be all ugly when they cut his hair.

So, no Nomar though, right?

No, he signed with our rival Dodgers. *boos*
