  1. 17 is too young to be dying of anything.
  2. Yep. Same with retired numbers for a lot of teams.
  3. Right, NY Post, that bastion of baseball knowledge.
  4. That's been the knock on the Mets for years now.
  5. Agreed. Once the lowest guy is in, that becomes the new benchmark, and before long, we've got the Hall of the Very Good. You can't set specific targets, because that will affect how guys play the game, putting their stats first.
  6. The reason Josh Beckett gets a pass for me for anything and everything is his WS winning performance against the Yankees in 2003. His money will never be good in my bar.
  7. My conclusion too. I know you can't go by w/l alone, but that record speaks for itself.
  8. Holy s***.
  9. I've spent 9 years of my life watching Tony La Russa make pitching changes.
  10. Don't even....
  11. I haven't followed baseball very closely this season but what little I know tells me Houston was probably the best team in the majors - definitely AL, at least. They deserve the win.
  12. And of those, only Washington and Seattle have never been to the dance.
  13. not sure if serious.
  14. I'd ask who was the ugliest player in WS history, but you already mentioned Yogi Berra.
  15. While we're at it, anyone know the tallest and shortest players in WS history? Googling only tells me the tallest LL player was 6'9".
  16. When a team is deemed to have choked, I always wonder how much that's true and how much it's just the other team playing better. Like when they always say a player or team "allowed" x number of runs or hits. The other team is always part of the equation too.
  17. Who was the first?
  18. I know what you're saying and I agree, but put it in the hands of the team, don't just hand them it based on which league's turn it is. Not a perfect answer, but I think it's the best.
  19. Don't think I'd feel confident with Darvish on the hill if I was a Dodgers fan.
  20. Pour it on, Astros. Time for Houston to get off the schneid.
  21. I think best record is fairer than alternating.
  22. I benchit you not.
  23. A meteor would never hit the field, but a meteorite might.
