Baseball - September 2007

The Blue Jays are done now, and I'm looking towards the future, and it looks great. They were supposed to be build on offense, but they have a really good pitching staff now.
SP-Halladay, Burnett, Chacin, Marcum, McGowan, Litsch, who put up stellar numbers as a 22 year old(6 pitchers, a good problem to have)

They also have some great up and coming help in the pen
RP- Brandon League, Jeremy Accardo, and then throw in BJ Ryan and some stellar relief pitchers like Scott Downs and Brian Tallet.

Then the Jays got Alex Rios, Aaron Hill who are already some of the better AL players at their positions. Vernon should bounce back now that hes making $18 MILLION a year. And Adam Lind is coming up from the minors. Thigpen is the future behind the plate.

And for people who say money is the issue, please. The Jays I believe are in the upper half of the MLB in terms of payroll

I'm a San Diego Padres fan. Milton Bradley just went on the disabled list. If the league issues a suspension for his part in the argument which led to multiple ejections, can Bradley serve his suspension while his on the disabled list

Do you root along league lines? (National vs. American?) Do you simply watch the games without a rooting interest? Or do you do as I do, pick a team to root for to make it more fun? (Sometimes that can be tough to do, and usually ends up with me rooting more against a team I dislike rather than for a team i like.)

I'm sorry, even though I am a Brewers fan, no one from the NL deserves to go. just take a second wildcard. You should have to finish at least ten above .500

Since both are in the playoffs and can't play each other in the first round, do they bother with a one-game playoff?

i recently made a traveling softball team. and here are my problems
1)we have practice thursdays and sunday mornings. i go to church on a regular basis and my mom is getting really upset that my parents have to miss church too b/c they have to drive me to practices.
my school is supposed to start a daily after-school strength training. they have yet to announce it yet but the head coach is also the football coach.
2)it seems that everyday i go to the school store and buy candy. im not fat but i can tell im gaining a little weight. how can i shed off those pounds and regain my muscles?? i need simple things that i can do everyday. i feel like i just can't get motivated to do anything. i get all these ideas and make charts and set goals. but i soon drop them after a couple of days.


thank you

I don't think Willie is going anywhere. Do you think a coach will get the boot or will they just revamp the bullpen?

I just wondered what people thought about Barry not even suiting up for the last three games of the season. Granted, the games mean nothing in regards to the playoffs for either team. Still, it seems wrong for him to abandon his teammates at this point. After all, these are the people who stuck up for him through the steroid contraversy. These are the players who cheered him to 756 and never said a foul word to the media. And now, after all they have done for them, he just up and leaves them. To me, this shows just how classless this guy is. What do you think? Best answer to the most articulate argument, even if you disagree with me.

I was wondering. If the Cubs and Brewers are tied at the end of the season, would a one game playoff be necessary?

These last 15 years or so, the longest 'curses' or championship droughts have pretty much ended.

Except for the Cubbies.

Is it their turn?

Bad times are over for:
Boston Red Sox - 1918 - 2004
Chicago White Sox - 1919 - 2005
New England Patriots - 40+ years of existence before winning a Superbowl
NY Rangers - 1940 - 1994
Detroit Redwings - 1955 - 1997

Interestingly enough, a fellow Chicago team, the NHL's Blackhawks, currently own the longest championship drought in their sport. 1961 and counting. Next after that is the Toronto Maple Leafs, 1967 and counting.
