Mik 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2003 This year, maybe. But a fluke and a cinderella are two totally different things. It's not like they snuck into the playoffs. Wildcard, yes. They also had 91 wins and more wins than the NL Central winning Cubs. They might not make it back to the playoffs next year, but they are going to do well. Especially with the pitching staff FINALLY maturing like has been predicted for years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mik 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2003 What is up with the board? The last two games I have been by myself until the late innings. Now I see names! at the bottom. You all just getting interested now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mik 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2003 Nothing to worry about in terms of Penny not being on. That run was 100% poor defense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandman9000 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2003 1-0 Yanks. Let's see how under the influence Wells is. He needs to be blackout drunk tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Report post Posted October 24, 2003 actually I just happen to be on the computer while the game is on. Don't get too excited. Not a bad recovery by Penny. But you can't blame it on shitty defense, cause he was the shitty defender. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mik 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2003 Yeah but you can still attribute it to shitty defense, even if it was his. What I meant by that statement was that it's not like he doesn't have any stuff working tonight, or that he got shelled, or anything like that. Besides his error, it would have been 0-0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Smell the ratings!!! Report post Posted October 24, 2003 Contreras has been getting a lot of work in this series, how long do you think he can go? more importantly, who comes in after him? Heredia? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mik 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2003 I vote for Jeff Weaver. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandman9000 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2003 It's either work the bullpen time, or else Torre works Pettitte and fucks his whole rotation up. Goddammit Wells. NY needed to go back with a lead, not down 3-2, knowing that they'll face Beckett again in this series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandman9000 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2003 Hate to tell you Mik, but after last night's debacle, Jeff Weaver and his head decided to get a divorce, encouraged by my axe. Sorry bud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sandman9000 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2003 Yanks pen, whether it's just Triple-A Jose or some combo, needs to work 6, and then let Rivera work two innings, under the assumption they have the lead, of course. I'm doubting it, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted October 24, 2003 WHAT HAPPENED TO WELLS? I've been watching SMD and i turn to the game and Wells is already out dispite a 1-0 lead? Did he get hurt or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
