[Papelbon58]

I really have a soft spot for the Padres as well. I want to see Cla Meredith do well

[CrespoBlows]

Padres in 3.

[Mr Crunchy]

cards havent won 3 games in a month

padres have decent pitching

 

outside karen ""rainy days and mondays bring me down"" carpenter and prince albert

they offer little else

the pads need to score

they will

pads in 4

[RedRuffing15]

Padres in 3, maybe the Cardinals will have a close game..maybe

The Pads will score because the Cardinal pitching staff behind Carpenter's pretty thin. I don't put much faith in Suppan/Marquis/Weaver/Reyes combo. Plus they lost Izzy for the season.

 

I liked the Padres even before they matched up against the Cardinals. Williams/Peavy/Wells/Young is a much better rotation and even if the Cardinals take game 1 (likely considering Carpenter's the better pitcher right now) the Padres should win the rest.

 

Padres in 4.

[Cocos Disciples]

Padres in 4.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Padres in 4. The Cardinals are absolutely awful.

[jsinger121]

Padres in 4

[AlexanderTheGreat13]

Padres wipe the floor with the Cards in 3 games.

[Ray10]

Padres in 3 games.

[riverside sluggers]

Padres/Dodgers, the "Red Sox" West rather, look to take the NL playoffs by storm. Im banking on a showdown between the 2 rival teams. How about seeing Nomah coming up to bat against D-Lowe on a cold October night in a scoreless ballgame?

[Mr Crunchy]

How about seeing Nomah coming up to bat against D-Lowe on a cold October night in a scoreless ballgame?

 

when?

is he taking batting practice in the bullpen??

theyre on the same team

I realize that. I meant to say Dave Roberts, but instead put Nomar down

[Mr Crunchy]

speaking of mrs hamm

im rooting for him despite my dislike for dodger blue

i know he was a sullen little ********** at the end of his boston tour but this guy had some amazing moments while he was here and he looked at one point like he may be done as a pro

plus

anytime a ny team loses in any sport i feel the bright side of the force get stronger

[Youk Of The Nation]

Cardinals jump to a 3-0 lead in the fourth. Four straight hits: Single, homer, single, double and then a sac fly and a double play.

[Annie Peritore]

Padres are gonna beat the Cards. They're the hotter team with the most momentum. The Cards may win a game with some Pujols heroics but the Pads are just steamrolling right now.
