2009 MLB Playoffs Thread

[cruzg24]

I wouldn't start CC on 3 days rest. When he did it last year in the regular season he was great, but it was against the Reds and Padres. When he did it in the playoffs he got lit up by the Phillies. Chances are that in a big game like this, especially in LA, that the Angels will have success against him like the Phillies did last year. I don't think the Angels will lose in LA the entire series, it has Adenhart Magic.

CC didnt do bad because it was the Phillies. It was because he went about 2 weeks with 3 days' rest last year. Then when he go to Philly he was burned out. I think CC will be fine, maybe not win the game, but he will give a quality start.

and who's to say Kazmir will be great?

didnt he own the Red Sox? or at least pitch very well against them
his start vs them in game 3 was awful


and back to my dodgers. it's been a day so i have come to my senses a little bit.
it's superr duper unlikely we come back, but we can still do it.

If Padilla and Hamels continue suit, thats a Dodgers win in game 5.

i know that Kershaw can go toe to toe with Cliff Lee. I know he can. a little optimistic maybe, but he never has 2 bad starts in a row. his last start was bad because the ump kept squeezing the hell out of him

Game 7, anything can happen.

so yeah i probably have a better shot at hosting my on ESPN TV show this week, but i still got some faith!
go dodgers!
and if we lose, we lose. got to give philly credit

Yankees up 1-0 on the Angels. And they have bases loaded.

 

[cruzg24]

Yankees up 3-0. Good thing it wasnt more or else it would put the game away.

This series would be over tonight if Girardi didn't play musical chairs with the bullpen yesterday.

A-Rod has been Mr. Clutch in this year's playoffs and the Yankee magic will continue.

 

[Mexi]

if the phils do make the WS, the yanks better have a man on each time ARod comes to bat.
those pitchers cant hold him down.

 

[cruzg24]

CC is a horse when it comes to 3 days rest as proven by last year. Burnett did very well against the Angels 2 nights ago without any signs of trouble. Kazmir has pitched well against the Skankees but I am uncertain of how healthy he is right now. His last start against the Red Sox wasnt very comforting.

Yankees won 10-1. Im a genious, lol.

Its fair to say the umpires have been brutal all playoffs long. For every team.

Very true, especially that idiotic call with the double tag that Napoli did. WTF was that about......

the Rockies/Phillies series was worse lol

From what I seen, there have been some bad calls this post-season. Then again, what do I know about baseball? I rarely watch.

I wonder if tonight's the night the Phillies end the Dodgers' season...

[cruzg24]

Grab on for dear life..... lol.


Man A-rod has done a HUGE transformation. Considering just a few months ago he admitted to taking steroids. Props to him that he has finally been clutch when it mattered the most.

 

[Gtown81]

and people wonder why we call him Gay-Rod

 

[Mexi]

lol i remember seeing that live
i couldnt stop laughing

 

[VC15]

With success of important teams and players, comes a bunch of jealous haters...

 

[Mexi]

i'm a laker fan
i know the feeling lol

 

[snipezo]

I'm wearing that ish.

 

[Mexi]
