    Loser League: Loser Series

    Oh ya I still need to complete this. The Loser League goes out with a whimper which should have been expected. 1988 Atlanta Braves def. 1988 Baltimore Orioles 4 games to 0 Game 1: Braves 5, ORIOLES 3 Game 2: Braves 11, ORIOLES 1 Game 3: BRAVES 5, Orioles 4 Game 4: BRAVES 5, Orioles 4 10 innings The series ended on a Gerald Perry RBI single off of Tom Neidenfuer (man never count on this guy in the postseason) to complete the sweep and crown the 1988 Baltimore Orioles as the Worst Team of My Lifetime. Congratulations guys!

    Top 100 MLB Players of My Lifetime: #40 - #21

    Well I certainly wouldn't argue with anyone who claimed Biggio was better as that was pretty much a toss up for me, hence why they are ranked next to each other. In fact he was one player among many others that when I finished the list I was afraid I may have underrated him. But again there was only so much time I wanted put into this list.
  3. Yes, Pujols is too low but again I was conservative with players who still have several years left in their career. #40 Jeff Kent, 2B #39 Will Clark, 1B #38 Carlos Beltran, CF #37 Vladimir Guerrero, RF #36 John Smoltz, SP/RP #35 Tom Glavine, SP #34 Alan Trammell, SS #33 Jim Edmonds, CF #32 Curt Schilling, SP #31 Ozzie Smith, SS #30 Derek Jeter, SS #29 Lou Whitaker, 2B #28 Mike Mussina, SP #27 Albert Pujols, 1B/LF #26 Jim Thome, 1B/DH/3B #25 Paul Molitor, DH/3B/2B #24 Tim Raines, LF #23 Craig Biggio, 2B #22 Ryne Sandberg, 2B #21 Ivan Rodriguez, C

    Spring Training 2009

    Justin Duchscherer will have arthroscopic surgery on his elbow and will be out six weeks and that's if they find nothing wrong. Given the A's history with injuries I'm just going to assume he's out for the season. This all but guarantees at least one of their top pitching prospects Trevor Cahill and Brett Anderson will begin the year in the Majors, if not both of them. They will also now have an all 25 and under rotation.
  5. 1982 Minnesota Twins def. 1988 Baltimore Orioles 4 games to 2 Game 1: Twins 6, ORIOLES 4 10 innings Game 2: Twins 3, ORIOLES 2 Game 3: TWINS 7, Orioles 1 Game 4: Orioles 7, TWINS 5 Game 5: Orioles 6, TWINS 2 Game 6: Twins 7, ORIOLES 2 After dropping their first six games of the postseason the '88 Orioles made a spirited comeback but all it meant was that they forced their fans to see another home game. Eddie Murray may be in the Hall of Fame but he takes Least Valuable Player honors in this series he scrapes together only 2 hits in 25 at bats. 1981 Chicago Cubs def. 1988 Atlanta Braves 4 games to 2 Game 1: BRAVES 7, Cubs 4 Game 2: Cubs 7, BRAVES 4 Game 3: Braves 5, CUBS 3 12 innings Game 4: CUBS 2, Braves 1 10 innings Game 5: CUBS 4, Braves 3 Game 6: Cubs 3, BRAVES 0 The Cubs once again can't even win the big one as they eliminate themselves from the Loser League setting an all 1988 match-up to crown the worst team of my lifetime. After hitting .480 against the Padres in the previous round, Ron Gant takes the LVP by hitting .115 and committing three errors which reminds you why he was moved to the outfield.

    Marlins received approval yesterday to build a new stadium in Miami. I'm so happy Jeffrey Loria's suffering is finally over. As part of the deal they'll be re-branded the Miami Marlins when the stadium opens in 2012.

    Spring Training 2009

    The Rays have optioned David Price to Triple-A which really comes off as a move to delay his arbitration clock than doing what's best for the team. It's even worse than the Orioles having Matt "God's Real Son" Wieters start the year in the minors as at least in Baltimore's case it won't be effecting their playoff chances.

    Loser League: Division Series

    It's playoff time for the Loser League and remember it will be loser advances. There's only one Losertober! 1979 Oakland A's def. 1988 Baltimore Orioles 3 games to 0 Game 1: A'S 24, Orioles 4 Game 2: A'S 11, Orioles 3 Game 3: A's 7, ORIOLES 3 That Game 1 score is not a misprint as this series reminds you why Baltimore lost 21 games to start the 1988 season. Baltimore's team ERA for the series was 14.40 as the A's hit .374 as a team. No word yet if Cal Ripken will request to pull himself out of the line up for the next series. 1979 Toronto Blue Jays def. 1982 Minnesota Twins 3 games to 1 Game 1: TWINS 6, Blue Jays 1 Game 2: Blue Jays 3, TWINS 0 Game 3: BLUE JAYS 7, Twins 6 Game 4: BLUE JAYS 5, Twins 4 Do you believe in miracles, eh? The '79 Blue Jays were the only team to top 100 losses in the Loser League and were the runaway favorite to take the title entering the postseason but they shock the world but beating the '82 Twins. The Jays mounted a five run 8th inning comeback in the deciding Game 4 to send the Twins to the Loser Championship Series and many of their players to suicide. 1998 Florida Marlins def. 1981 Chicago Cubs 3 games to 2 Game 1: Marlins 4, CUBS 1 Game 2: CUBS 10, Marlins 6 Game 3: MARLINS 5, Cubs 4 12 innings Game 4: Cubs 5, MARLINS 1 Game 5: Marlins 6, CUBS 4 Cubs' fans this might be your year! No team was happier that two months of the 1981 season was wiped out by a player's strike than the Cubs and it almost seems cruel to make them keep playing. I don't know if Bartman stole a foul ball from Steve Henderson in the deciding game. 1981 San Diego Padres def. 1988 Atlanta Braves 3 games to 2 Game 1: Braves 4, PADRES 2 Game 2: Braves 6, PADRES 4 11 innings Game 3: Padres 8, BRAVES 3 Game 4: Padres 4, BRAVES 2 Game 5: PADRES 9, Braves 8 18 innings Go Braves! After dropping two at home the Padres make a remarkable comeback and in Game 5 defeated the Braves in an 18 inning classic or really 6 hours and 26 minutes of torture if you had watch these two teams play. The game ended on an Ozzie Smith RBI single off rookie Tom Glavine who was forced into the game as a pinch hitter and remained in the game to pitch after the Braves bench and bullpen had been used up.
