I've been around too long to be sold on the idea that thet are the team to beat in the NL East.

That's been said of them too many times.

I see them finishing behind the Marlins and Braves with a w/l record under .500, what do you baseball people think?

I want to get two reasonably priced tickets for the series against Toronto at the start of May. I do not want to deal with Ticketmaster. Are there other legit ticket sites that are good for getting tickets to sporting events?

They have a pretty loaded pitching staff, and the line-up is stacked. Do you expect them to win it all? What if they don't?
I'm not saying they will or won't, just trying to get a feel for what you think. I, for one, am trying not to get my hopes too high, because too many times they've let me down. I do think they have a good solid shot of making the play-offs, but what if they fall out of the playoff picture? In a way they remind me of the 2005 White Sox (whiney sux). They won with god pitching and should have made the playoffs in 2006, but the pitching went south. Do you think the same thing will happen to The Tigers?

I'm NOT talking fantasy!! Whats your feel on that?? I was beginning to think Soriano, but he's not a second baseman anymore. I also reffering to basically the last few years or so and looking towards the future in baseball here.... If that makes any sense! Thanks for your time and input........

Consider this: 193 career wins and 154 career saves going into the 2007 season. He has done everything his team has asked of him in order to keep his team competitve over the years. He's been a Cy Young Award winner, a 20 game winner, was the best relief pitcher in baseball for 3 seasons and will no doubt win his 200th game this year. He has a world championship to his credit so will all this be enough for Smoltz to be elected into the hall?

Stan Musial was better than Mantle, or Ty Cobb in numbers. The only reason Stan Musial does'nt get the recognition is because he did'nt play for a New York or a Los Angeles. But had he played for NY or LA his name would be bigger than Mantle, Cobb, Babe, Gehrig, etc..But because St. Louis is a small city, players don't get the recognition they deserve as the ones on the coasts. Mark my words, Albert Pujols is on his way to creating Stan Musial like numbers, and by far, Stan Musial is one of the greatest players in baseball history ( better than A-Rod, Ortiz, Ramirez,etc.). Before you go responding to this, get your facts straight. I don't want opinions, just facts. And Santana is a pitcher (the best in the game right now). Barry Bonds fell apart since the roids allegations. A-rod is looking for a new house. Ortiz is NOT consistent and clutch. I'm surprised nobody mentioned Derek Lee as far as defense but he's not solid. Think and do your research before you react. Albert Pujols #1!

Drysdale used to spit, put vasoline and cut the ball and everyone knew about it. He had an edge because he cheated. Barry Bonds was already one of the greatest all around players and since he know can hit the ball 4 miles instead of 2 miles everyone thinks he should be banned from baseball. I dont get it???
