Nice (for him obviously, not you!).

Looks like I was wrong about the good doctor. He beaned Ortiz last night as payback for Lind. It wasn't a fastball and fair play to Papi for taking it so well. He was pretty much the only target with everyone else being rested (i.e. Hung Over) after a late night of celebrations.

If only the season lasted 2 weeks, we'd be killing it! We're murdering the long ball right now, another 4 last night, 13 at Fenway over the 3 game series and and a total of 46 for the month of September (a new franchise record). It's been fun to watch - which I suppose is some consolation for some of the garbage we've had to put up with.

Reds getting truely spanked now!

Well I have to admit to jumping on the Rockies bandwaggon this afternoon. This is the first time I have been to Coors Field for a few years. Rockies beat the Brewers to clinch at least the wild card and still have a remote chance of the division. Scalped 2 club level front row tickets for $25.
Then a walk to the Pepsi to watch the Avs opener with the Joe Sakic retirement ceremony. Scalped a lower bowl ticket for $20. A nice affordable afternoon and evening.

Its all gone a bit mental here. Yesterday a story breaks that the Jays players pretty much to a man are unhappy with Cito. The Jays react today by giving JP his marching orders (oh happy day! ). I'm pretty sure Cito will be following him come Monday. The clearout has begun!

I'd like to change my mind about Jake Peavy,after he turned us down in may I called him overated but after watching him pitch against the Tigers last night I can now say he's going to win 20+ games for us next year.With him,Buerle and Danks etc our pitching is set for next year we just need to hit better.

The White Sox are doing their best to ruin the Tigers season winning the 1st 2 games this weekend and now the Tigers are only tied with the Twins in the division lead with 1 game left.

Twins & Tigers play-off tomorrow. Should be electric.

Which ever team wins will get swept by the Yankees.It happened to us last year,used up too much nervous energy getting a tie in the division and winning the playoff it messed up the pitching rotation and we had nothing left against the Rays.

Both teams could have everything left and they would still get swept by the Yankees. In fact, they could pool their best players to form one team and they'd still struggle.

I'm pinning my hopes on the Angels this year for the AL title.

That was some game last night. Both teams fighting it out, coming from behind, throwing everything they had at eachother. Hats of to both teams and congrats to the Twins. It could be a tough night in New York for them off the back of that but hopefully the adrenaline is still flowing, giving them the edge they'll need to compete.

Anybody that calls baseball boring should watch a tape of last night's game.

...be executed, I agree.

Hell of a finish to the Phillies/Rockies game last night. No real surprises for me with the 4 teams making it through to the finals. So, Phillies to take the NL and Angels to shock the Yankees and take the AL.

Some potentially great match-ups for the series i.e. Freeway series, Torre vs Yankees, Yankees vs World Champs. The least interesting is probably Angels vs Phillies. I've booked the week off for the World Series so I'm hoping it goes beyond the four games and would love a seven game series.

I don't think there's a dull possible final in there tbh. It all looks good.
