Re: Woo Phillies!

Still waiting on my Rays to move onto the ALCS. They lost to Chicago (AL) today, 5-3.

The Rays? Where are they from?

Re: Woo Phillies!

Tampa Bay, Florida.

Formerly known as the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. They got their name slightly changed after last season (2007).

Re: Woo Phillies!

Now instead of being STEVE IRWIN KILLERS they are LIFE AND LIGHT GIVERS.

But it would be hilarious to see them get to the World Series like this (then lose to the Phillies ofc). In Starcraft, that's called "walking the Royal Road." but this isn't starcraft so GO PHILLIES

Re: Woo Phillies!

My hats off to the Rays this year. This has to be the biggest worst-to-first turnaround in the game's history.

From their inception in 1998, the Rays have had only two seasons that they were not in last place: in 2004 and 2008.

What are you complaining about? I know you're looking for them to get a winning season during your lifetime.

Ahaha, I was kidding, man.

I know a lot about the MLB. I know where the Rays are from and what they've done this year, lol.

Re: Woo Phillies!

And if they were in the AL they'd be a .500 team. Whining about divisions won't get you anywhere. The Mets collapsed. Again. Get over it and teach Johan Santana to play every position. Then you're golden.

No, more like make Johan Santana start his game one every 5, and then be the whole entire bullpen every day he doesn't start.

Yea....

Very yes. They're facing a decent team in the White Sox and handling them nicely. That's who I'm rooting for now that the Brewers are out. Because they're not the Phillies and because they're not Boston. They're also vs "that other team from Chicago I could care less about". Must make sure Chicago goes nowhere.

Re: Woo Phillies!

Pulling for the Rays and the Phils now. The Phils look poised to take the NL this year. I don't see the Dodgers keeping up their run. As far as the world series goes, yeah I'll worry about that when it happens.

And my team had a major f up this year too. I can't believe the way Arizona played this year, it was pitiful. They were on fire at the beginning of the year, and just completely fell apart. Even Webb had a streak of 3-4 bad starts. I still think he deserves the Cy Young over Lincecum though, but that's probably just my biased talking. Everyone knows Sabathia would have gotten it had he pitched a full season even close to the way he pitched since coming to the NL.

Re: Woo Phillies!

If CC had pitched all year the way he did with the Brew crew, it would be a no brainer for the Cy Young. 11-2 in what, 14, 15 starts? 7 CG, 3 shutouts, 1.96 ERA (i think that's it, going off memory here). Those are Cy Young caliper numbers if you ask anyone who knows anythign about baseball.

Re: Woo Phillies!

I'm just worried about the Phil's offense. The scored 0 runs against the weakest bullpen in the league. They need to wake up if they intend on competing with Manny and the Dodgers. And they have good starting pitching too. Arguably better than the Phil's starters. Utley and Howard have both been pitiful in the playoffs. They need to become factors if Philly is going to beat the Dodgers, much less win the series.
