Smilie for you Gander!



DA BRAVES! Here is to Buffy keeping the faith!

I hope it does...they're easy money, just bet against them in the playoffs....

No I dont mind the Braves at all. In fact I like them better than the Mets. Just keeping things real. They would need to keep playing at this pace for 6-7 more weeks to put them in the position to win the wildcard. I just dont see it happening. As far as Vlad goes, I like him too, but hes got a habit of wwinging at some very cooky pitches when he falls behind in the count.

I have seen Vladi hit some real crap pitches for doubles and home runs.Guy is odd as it gets.The pitcher in question has a real nice sinker that starts in the strike zone,and doesn't duck to the ground until very late.You'll like him,Buffy.Gander,the Braves are not out of the Wildcard lead by much.My God the Dodgers are 2 games under .500,and only 3 out of the wildcard.

They still have at least 6-7 teams they must go through to get there and I believe they play the Mets 9 more times. Thats not going to be easy. Not sure what anybody sees in this team besides the Jones boys. Granted the NL is not very good but I give the Astros a huge edge in winning the wildcard, if not their division. In that case I would give the Cards a huge edge in the Wildcard. I would be shocked if both the Cards and Astros arent in the postseason and will wear a Yankee hat if the Braves make the postseason.

What does anybody see in the Braves? It is the fact that nobody else is doing anything(other than St.Louis,San Diego,and the Mets.)

I am confident the 8 playoff teams will be:
-White Sox, Red Sox, Tigers and A's
-Astros, Cardinals, Padres and Mets

What I am not so confident in is who wins the NL Central between the Cards and Astros.

Take out White Sox and put in Twins. The Twins are a threat to win it all. Twins-Mets WS.
