naiwf 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2006 The Tigers losing out would be FAR from the biggest choke of all time. It shouldn't even register really. How so? They were 40 over .500 on August 7th, and there's a WC to fall back on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bud Smith's no hitter was one of the five most nerve-wracking games I've ever watched. I can't helped but wonder if the stress of that game contributed to his arm problems.

Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2006 Fuck. So I know that it's the National League, and I know he plays in a cavernous football stadium, but this one still hurts give how abysmal Josh Beckette has been. But congrats to the kid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vivalaultra 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2006 So, for the Marlins no-hitters, we've got who? ...Kevin Brown, Anibal Sanchez, AJ Burnett...and...fuck...somebody else, right? I remember Burnett's...that was a fucked up game. 9 walks and still got a no-no. Yeah, Bud Smith was a Cardinal. Only played 2001 and 2002. He had arm problems.

vivalaultra 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2006 So, in terms of evaluating after the fact, it looks like Florida did better than alot of people thought in the Beckett/Lowell trade. In other gameday news, the Phillies and Astros are having another Hella good game. Big Puma just broke up a 2-2 tie in the top of the 9th with a three-run double.

Mik 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2006 Most people knew the Marlins did pretty decent in that trade. Anibal was highly touted and of course they got the immortal Hanley Ramirez. Not to mention two great flamethrowers that are currently in AA. With that said... I've never been routing for a KC Royals hit more in my entire life.
