Who will be the first to win a World Series ring?

[HammerDown]

In your opinion?

 

[Bmurph]

Bryants team seems to be in a pretty good place, though I still think they may need another TORP to win it all. F the Angels and the Astros.......oh and Bryce

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Because there wasn't an option for Paul Goldschmidt.....I went w/ Correa....cuz one of the other 3 plays for the Cubs....and the other 2 are pretty much primadonna clones of one another.

So being a "prima donna" trumps a player's talent, and the talent levels of the players around him?

 

[Clayton]

There is literally no way to predict this other than to say something like 'I think the Cubs are going to be awesome this year'

I didn't say that...you did.

Yeah you did. You said you think the Astros will be the first team of the 4 to win a WS because Trout and Harper are prima donnas^

but I said nothing about their talent, or that of their teammates...did I?
That's something you said.

I also said said Goldy would win one 1st...but he wasn't on the list.

So, you're either saying that talent doesn't lead to success, or that Harper and Trout aren't talented, and just happen to be prima donnas, thus their teams won't win the WS

 

[Sportsguy9695]

id go with Bryce Harper. I see the nationals having a bright future

I don't see that... but hey to each their own.

[Nosferatu]

I went with Bryant as I believe the Cubs have a better shot than the Astros or Nats this year, I don't think the Angels are a real threat at the moment.

HARPER + PITCHING = ws RING

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

HARPER + PITCHING = ws RING

we've been hearing that for the last few years now....

It's like a fine wine uncorked and needing time to breath yoga. Besides the Nats are trading to protect Harper in the lineup and acquiring bullpen help as well. Papalbon to close.

that "fine wine" was left out in the heat too long...now it's turned to vinegar.


And how long until Dusty Baker loses that clubhouse?

Except that since Trout's first full big league season, the Halo's rank 19th in pitching WAR and 25th in xFIP in MLB

You say that like Papelbon is somehow an asset to the Nationals
