"w00t" or "crap" Baseball Thread

[Courk]

At IS's suggestion...

[Chuck]

The Arizona Diamondbacks will be in first place tonight after they complete a three game sweep of the Los Angeles Dodgers.

[Trojan Horse]

Yeah, and Shawn Green will once again be instrumental in Arizona's victory.

The guy on the other team that you're helping to pay for is always the guy that beats you.

[Quagmire]

I swear, my Brewers will be a contending team by the 2007-2008 season.

[KingPin]

I swear that the Kansas City Farm Team Royals are always gonna suck!

Some local announcer here was saying that they were a team built for the future. That they were a solid, young, group of kids that will blossom over the next couple of years. Really?!?! They will be out of here by then! The good ones always leave, Damon, Dye, Beltran.... Whatever, I'm still a fan!

[Courk]

That reminds me, 2005 is suppposedly the year that the Indians are done with "rebuilding."

[Dread Pirate Westley]

Maybe, but the ChiSox are off to a roaring start.

Quagmire, I wouldn't hold my breath.

*Dusts off the newbie chainsaw* Anyone who refers to the Anaheim Angels by any stupid names that their stupid owner thinks make a good marketing move, gets this...California Angels is acceptable.

[Courk]

What is it again? Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim? La-a-a

[Dread Pirate Westley]

*Gives Courk the chainsaw* Here, now you have to go down to the Puzzlania gas station and put gas in it. And you don't want to know the puzzle he's put on the darn thing to get it to start pumping.

[Death Mage]

I don't take enough steroids to watch Baseball anymore.

Since all they sell around here is Tigers paraphernalia, I had to get my Cubs shirt online.

[Internet Stranger]

Yaay, the Rays got their ass kicked by Mr Shades and Schilling is being a bunghole.

Well, the Gigantes are off to a great start. Maybe Barry can rub some "Flax-seed oil" on his knee to make it heal faster.

Reds get a 6-1 lead off of a grand slam and still lose.

Big shocker.

[Dread Pirate Westley]

That was already covered in the "happy" thread, Deth (albeit from the other side's PoV).

[Trojan Horse]

Hey Travis, was it one of [url=http://www.wrigleyvillesport.com/istar.asp?a=6&id=53340!Maj&csurl=%2Fistar.asp%3Fa%3D3%26dept%3DCubs%26class%3DT]THESE[/url] T-shirts?

[Courk]

They make these?

[dethwing]

Reds lose again.

[KingPin]

Royals Finally Win!!!

[memyselfandI]

BoSox are currently winning 4-0 over the A's in the 4th.

[Neo]

Pena resigned

[Quagmire]

Brewers are over .500 and in 2nd place in the Central!

[mikegoo]

Go Rockies! You can take second to last in the league...I just know it!

[Quailman]

[GFY]

Giants win. Maybe, someday, they'll get to .500.

Is that allowing for a couple of wins by your favorite Cubs pitcher?

BTW, though I am a long-time Cardinlas fan, I actually have towo favorite teams. The Cardinals and whoever is playing the Cubs.

[Trojan Horse]

Dodger fans rejoice! Eric Gagne is coming off the injured list today! Woo-hoo!!

[Dread Pirate Westley]

In the past it was whoever was playing the Mets, and that's not right. No cookie for you.

I usually have 3 favorite teams: My Beloved Cubs, whoever's playing the Hated Cardinals, and whoever's playing the Mets. This weekend, I only have 1 favorite team.

If I were to check my fantasy team ever again, I'd have to do something about Gagne. He's been on my bench since the beginning of the year. He'll remain there.

Mariners beat the Padres 2 out of 3 to win the series tonight. I'll be happy if they finish .500 this year after last year's horrible precipitous decline. I expected them to be better already with Beltre and Sexson. I guess their pitching really is as awful as it was last year. Doesn't help with the Madstrich injury. They'll do better when Pineiro comes back from the minors (worked for Meche last year) and they bring up the phenom Felix Hernandez. In the offseason they'll get pitching and 2006 will be the year of the M's!

[Samadhi]

Hey, Padres aren't chumps.

C. C. Sabathia hit a homerun the other day. I remember him from when he played for Akron.

[Ataraxy]

Some rookie pitched against the Mariner's today. They brought him up from AAA. I might have seen him if I had actually gone to a Portland Beavers game. I haven't been to a game since Sean Burroughs played for them and he is in his 3rd or 4th season in the majors.

[Internet Stranger]

Its time to put Dewon Brazelton on a milk carton.

Welcome to the world of the Milwaukee Brewers.

Top 6th, at the Metrodome:
Brady Clark: I think I'll hit a home run to tie the game at one and end Johan Santana's no-hit bid! Yay! Go us!

Top 7th:
Brewers: Yay! Let's take the lead 2-1!

Eventually, top 9th:
Brewers: We have a big enough lead at 5-2. Even with the bases loaded and 1 out, we don't need any insurance runs, so let's just fan at a bunch of baseballs so we can go win.

Bottom 9th:
Derrick Turnbow: I have a 1.5 ERA and 10 saves, so I've got it in the bag. Oh wait! I play for Milwaukee! I think I'll blow the save to a 2 run homer with 2 outs so the game's tied at 5!

Bottom 11th:
Junior Spivey: I think I'll make a fielding error so that we can lose.

We'll finish at .400 this year, I hope.

[Chuck]

The Red Sox are three games behind The Orioles in the American League Eastern Division and Baltimore starts a four game series in Boston today. The Red Sox can move into first place by winning all four games.
