The Strasburg Race

[Soxfan1]

1 - Washing Nationals : 46-83

 

2 - Seattle Mariners : 47-81

 

3 - San Diego Padres : 48- 80

 

 

I'm putting money on the M's.

Nope, sorry. The Mariners still have Ichiro, Ibanez, and a couple other guys that could be considered the beginning of a good team.

 

On the other hand, the Nationals don't.When the face of your franchise is Ryan Zimmerman, when your best players are Elijah Dukes and Lastings Milledge, and you are tossing guys like Pete Orr, Kory Casto, Jesus Flores, and Ryan Langerhans out on the field daily, you are officially the worst team in baseball, record or no.

 

Look at the Nats pitching roster:

 

Collin Balester

Jason Bergmann

Jesus Colome

Marco Estrada

Joel Hanrahan

John Lannan

Charlie Manning

Garrett Mock

Odalis Perez

Tim Redding

Saul Rivera

Steven Shell

 

This wouldn't strike fear into the heart of Rob friggin Deer

Have you seen the Nationals? The Tigers of '03 could give them a run.

 

Plus, the Mariners will be playing tougher opponents in the AL.

Went back and re-read my post and realized I contradicted myself. Anyway, I think the Nationals are the worst team in baseball and will finish as such. I just threw that fact about the M's playing tougher opponents in there. I think they finish 2nd.

[Cocos Disciples]

Ahh. Then yes I agree.
