Verlander is money. And it looks like a Detroit/San Fran WS. Giants win again.

Hello Sexy girl how your Toes doing?
That would be cool. but there's still allot of ball to be played, nobody is a definite write in for the WS yet. :2 cents:
Its common practive all the teams are celebrating like that every time they advance to another round of the playoffs. I bet every team that advances will be celebrating the same way when there being interviewed after there clinching game that launches the into the next round, just releasing there pent up emoitons I guess. :dunno:
On that note I have to say, Just- Incredible part 2!! I am so glad the best pitcher on the planet happens to be a Detroit Tiger!! he's fuckin Amazing!! :bowdown: :nanner: I can't believe how dominant he is, its such a weapon to possess.
I've got to give a HUGE :hatsoff: to the Oakland A's they are a hell of team.. who would have thought that they would have made it as far as they did, with that roster, the amount they spent on there salary this year was the 2nd lowest in the league yet they beat the Texas Rangers & the LA Angels!! that's amazing in its own right.. if it wasn't for having to face Verlander twice in this series, the A's probably would have advanced to the ALCS.. and IMO Bob Melvin and Buck Showalter should be Co-Managers of the year, its the only fair solution!! :2 cents:

I sure hope the Birds beat the Yankee's tonight.. I think the tigers would have a better chance of going to the WS if we have to play the Birds to get there!! not that I don't think we can beat the Yanks cuz we've done it in the past, but, if I had my druthers I'd choose the path with least resistance I think the Yanks are much more dangerous. :2 cents:

Well, all those Nationals fans who materialized last week can jump back off the bandwagon.
I put a Drew Storen poster on my closet door, and now it won't close. Oh well, the good news for Storen is that he'll only relive the 9th inning of this game every day for the rest of his life. What a complete meltdown. He totally lost his cool during the Molina at bat. It was all down hill from there.
And Grady Little called. He thought Davey Johnson left Storen in too long...

I'm at a loss for words. That was an unbelievable comeback. I just want to congratulate Nats fans on a great season its just the youth and lack of post season experience got to them. They should be in the thick of things in the future if they don't continue to shutdown Strasburg, I have to admit that was a really bad move on their part.
Party tonight baby.

This meltdown reminds me of the Red Sox in game 6 of the 1986 World Series. The Mets were also down to their last strike.
As for Drew Storen... who remembers Donnie Moore? He gave that homerun to Dave Henderson in game 5 after the California Angels had a 3-1 lead in games over the Red Sox in 1986.

October is off to another great start!!! Would the Nats have won 1 more game if Strassburg was pitching instead of sitting on the sidelines?
I must revise my picks because I've only gotten ONE pick correct so far (for shame) and it happened to be the only pick I DIDN'T WANT to get right (Yankees over Orioles). Even though not one of the teams that I wanted to see win their respective series actually did so, this has been an incredible divisional championship series round. Amazing baseball thus far.
ALCS
Yankees over Tigers (this could be really close, but having to use Justin Verlander to close out the Athletics wasn't a good thing for the Tigers considering that he'll likely only be available for Game 3 and potentially Game 7 against the Yankees. That being said, the Yankees had to use C.C. Sabathia to close out the Orioles, so same story there. However, the Yankees have more power, better baserunning ability, a deeper bench, and everything else is pretty much a wash.)
NLCS
Giants over Cardinals (this is such a close series. The Cardinals do have a slightly superior offence, and the pitching is pretty much a wash. However, I just like the Giants' starting pitching right now better than I like the Cardinals' starting pitching. I'd like to see Tim Lincecum make a start or two in this series; he pitched in relief twice against the Reds and threw 6.1 innings, allowing just one run (earned), striking out eight, and picking up a W. I think he's earned the right to start (perhaps over Barry Zito) and we all know how dominant he can be when he's on his form.)
World Series
Giants over Yankees (this might be a bad pick, but the Giants clearly have the better pitching staff, and their offence does stack up against the Yankees (albeit with much less overall power). I just think that the Giants are younger, hungrier, and more clutch than the Yankees.)
I guess I would like to see the Cardinals beat the Yankees in the World Series, but the bottom line is that I want to continue to see good playoff baseball and I want the team that deserves it to earn it and win it.

Hello Sexy girl how your Toes doing?
Lol.. as much as I would love too do that I couldn't afford tickets to a game.. :cussing:
Wow what a roller coaster of emotions for this fuckin game.. Fister getting out of 3 different bases loaded situations only to have poppa grande blow the entire lead in the 9th inning, & then we finally win it in the 12th inning. whew.. that was too much for 1 game..
NOT too mention the Yankee's losing Jeter for the remainder of the playoffs with a fractured left ankle!! I hate the Yankee's thats a given!!! but I hate to see players get hurt, especially a guy like Jeter, he's always been a class act, and the only reason I hate him is cuz he plays for the Yankee's, but, for the Yankee's team captain to go down like that is pretty shitty.. I wish Jeter goodluck rehabbing from his injury..
