AL East Thread

[molsaniceman]

The NL is so bad outside of the Dodgers and Braves.

All the teams currently in 2nd place in their respective NL divisions would be at best 3rd place if they were in the AL....some would be in 4th place

and yet the NL is 83-65 vs AL

both leagues have a cpl good teams and a bunch of crap

461 my ass.

I've seen a lot of games at the Trop, and I've never seen anyone go up there.


Also, who's the replay ump? Mr Magoo?

Did they ever give a reason why they imagined that he was safe? The replay clearly shows he never touched home plate....

Nope. Due to my location I'm forced to watch the Rays broadcast whenever they play, and the Rays announcers were sure it was going to be overturned, as was anyone without glaucoma or cataracts.

I'm sure the Yanks would have protested, but happily there was no need, and we got to see Sanchez almost punch a hole in that oversized gymnasium.

All's well that ends well.

The NL doesn't have as many great teams as the AL, but there's a whole lot of decent teams in the NL.

Dodgers and Braves seem to have separated themselves, but Cubs, Brewers, Nationals, Phillies, Rockies, Diamondbacks, Padres, Pirates and Reds are all still in the mix for playoff spots. AL is heavier at the top for sure, but also a lot heavier at the bottom.

Lots of good playoff races shaping up this yr. as well.That should be fun to watch.

Is Ken Singleton ok? He keep calling this an afternoon game

 

[bksballer89]

Chapman looks shaky again.

I wouldn't use him the next 2 days.

Overexposure to Yankees games can cause permanent brain damage.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that there's a "DH" next to Vazquez' name in the lineup card and it's actually justifiable.

at what point do the Sox cut ties with Nunez? He's been worth -2.3 WAR over his last 185 games. He can't hit, he can't get on base, he doesn't really run and he can't field.

 

[Brees#1]

I thought the Rays were in first place.

I remember seeing back in early June or late May TB having a sizable lead. I guess they choked it away.
