2008 Mlb season

yeah Whomp :( i was thinking of it all weekend. next time for sure :)

on another note - that play in the astros-mets game from the other night ('stros baserunners careening at home plate) reminded me of a play from back in the day in a yanks-chisox game where 2 yankees runners similarly reached the dish on a single play...but the original Pudge (c fisk) tagged both of them (!) i know one of the runners was the immortal bobby meacham - can't remember the other atm. but i was watching that game on the tv as a kid when it happened (ch 11 wpix).
 
Meanwhile the fourth-place Astros have the same record as the first-place Diamondbacks.

My friend has been arguing with me for the past couple weeks that the d-backs shouldn't be in. They have the 8th best record in the NL I think he said. He wants it to just be the 1-2-3 teams with the best team getting a bye as a reward for having the best record. I like it as it is really.
 
Still 8 games behind Milwaukee for the WC though :( This stretch has been impressive for Houston, but I'm expecting the 10 game losing streak shortly after it.
 
After being a cubs fan most of the 80's and all of the 90's it is taking A LONG time to get used to the fact that the cubs are actually good. I am still in a mind state that says they are going to blow every game, and then daryle ward smokes a three run homer in the 9th for a come from behind win. Man I love baseball, you are never out of a game until that 27th out.
 
Mariners v. Nationals WS anyone?
 
They're so bad they make the mariners look good.
I'd take the Nationals for their upside since the Mariners will be the first team ever to lose 100 games and spend $100 million for all those losses. Mind blowing.
 
that's some BP that the mets are running out there every night :lol: classic mets meltdown last night :thumbsup: i love it :D

My buddy was talking crap to me throughout the game... but dgfred had the
last laugh :D . Go Phils and don't look back.
