I'm making a prediction now. I predict Boston will finish 1.5 games back behind the Yankees, earning them a Wildcard spot.
However, my itch to see Kansas City win means I predict they will win a first round series against the Sox should they play, and Seattle will mop the floor with them.
Sure it's part prophecy and part speculation, but that's the fun of baseball threads!

What the hell happened last night?

I saw the Yanks were up 5-1...later when I took my daughter home I turned on 880, and Matsui had just driven in Bernie to make it 8-7...

Bullpen.

Freakin' bullpen.

*Again*.

They're killing me, here.

Have the Yankees won the World Series since Jeff Nelson was traded after the 2000 season? No. it's all about the championships, baby.

That bullpen is a disaster. There is no excuse to score 5 or more runs a game and lose. ?:| The starters have been great. The bullpen stinks! shock My kingdom for a descent reliever. Their play in late July and August could haunt them if the Red Sox can win consistently with anyone on the mound besides Pedro.

Thanks for that on-the-spot report, Les. For those of you who've just tuned in, the Pinedale Shopping Mall has just been bombed with live turkeys. Film at eleven.
As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.

That Hitchcock has got to go. What a train wreck he is. You know...Steinbrenner tosses Benitez after only a month...ok so he blew a game but he didn't do THAT bad...and yeah I love Nelson...but yet after Hitchcock has blown about 5 or 6 games ALL YEAR SO FAR he STILL remains in pinstripes. What is wrong with this picture?!?!??! The guy's a starter and right now I don't even think I'd trust him with that.

Anybody else remember the good old days in 1999?

Jeff Nelson
Mike Stanton
Ramiro Mendoza
Mariano Rivera

Now that was a fearsome foursome. Who the hell is Chris Hammond and why isn't he gone after giving up that homer in Boston???

Mike...we can not toss RP's out after everytime they gave up runs.

I mean, it happens.

Does it happen on a consistent basis? No.

And how about the '96 season...when Mo was the set up man...and Wetteland was the closer?

I need to ammend my prophecy. After realizing how good the rotation is in Oakland, they've got the wildcard, again...

Can prophecies be amended? I think there are rules against that.

Sure, as long as it's not already written out on paper. Or it could be a forked prophecy, where one result triggers a whole different prophecy. Or you could in theory expose me for the charletan I am. But where's the fun in that?

I know how I am going to die. I will suffer from a brain aneurysm watching Jeff Weaver pitch. They will find me dead on my couch. Every pillow I own will be hurled at the TV. A blood vessel in my head will explode and kill me instantly after I find out there is no more pillows to throw. My TV remote will still be in my cold, dead hands.

I missed the ninth inning last night!!! Dammit, what happened? Was that homerun foul or not? I haven't even seen a replay...oh, well, as long as we won, right? Glad to see Boone starting to come around. happy
