vivalaultra 0 Report post Posted September 29, 2006 It's funny that there was alot of talk about how Roger should've bailed out on Houston to go to Boston or New York because that was the only way he'd have a shot at the playoffs, and now...look at Boston. And it's gotta be more exciting doing things the way the Astros are. I personally find this kind of thing alot more exciting and interesting than having the division wrapped up from Day 1. Oh, damn, Houston's eliminated from the WC. I guess they'll just have to win the division instead. Come on, Brewers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vivalaultra 0 Report post Posted September 29, 2006 They did until about...the middle of August or so. They were only 1 game back at one point, and promptly lost alot of ground. I've been saying for the past month that the Astros would win the Central and the WC winner would have more wins than them. And today, the Astros assured that they'll, at worst, finish the season at .500. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Paul Report post Posted September 29, 2006 But, NY never had their division wrapped up from the start. And when Hideki and Gary were injured, people cried the Yanks wouldn't even make the WC. edit:The more things change... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ might have had a shot if the pitching staff hadn't been decimated with injuries. He pitched pretty well when he was healthy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

None of those online gamecasts work well on my brokedick desktop comuter, so I'm simply following the commentary on Orangewhoopass.com. You oughta check it out. Entertaining to follow along with, and the occassional user editorial comments are usually humorously profane. Plus, most of the users are fairly knowledgeable so there's very little in the way of "Yur STOOPID!" comments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boston started Kyle Snyder for ten games this year. Six starts for Lenny DiNardo. I know I'm reaching here, but perhaps getting Clemens on the roster would have kept the Red Sox in playoff contention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was just saying how there were certain columnists and such talking about how even if Clemens came back to Houston, they had no shot at the postseason, and, therefore, he should go to Boston of New York. I'm sure he's glad that he picked Houston for more than monetary reasons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
