The Braves are a terrible team. They had their run, but the Mets are significantly better. The Braves will likely finish 30 games out of first.

Take Rivera off the team and they might win 1. Take Jeter off and they win all 3, maybe 4. Bernie and O'Neil were more valuable. The Yankees won with pitching anyway, something they are just...

I think the peformance people like him better than the pedigree people. His pedigree is nice but not that nice. He was bought off his performance in some work. Still don't get the price on that...

Pedigrees mean everything. Why do you think people pay more for good pedigrees. 99% percent of the time the horses that are the best have the best pedigree. Case closed.

Got to agree with this post. Pletcher always has good 2yr olds and one or two will make it to the derby. So what. For all we know next years derby winner could still be on a farm somewhere.
