Running MLB Thread, Part the Fourth, 2007

Wow.

The Brewers are 25-1 when leading after 7, and 27-0 when leading after 8.

Teams like that win divisions. Especially when you get to play several games against the other bullpens in the NL Central.

 

They might have to wait another year, like the Cubs. Bucs are ready to take that division!

 

The HP jinx might have worked! McCann 3-run double. 4-2 Braves in the 8th.

Want to know why McCann is a franchise player? See the wild pitch (that was really a passed ball) that gave the Brewers the lead, and then he clears the bases with a double for his pitcher to make up for it. I love that guy and wish he was wearing Cubbie Blue.

Seriously, Turnbow is like Padilla. His stats are just nowhere near where they should be considering he has some of the most electric stuff in the game.

 

FUCK YOU DERRICK TURNBOW! You will taste the black sperm of my vengeance!

 

I'm seeing a Schoenweis, Valentin for Duke trade coming post All-Star break.

 

The Braves have tacked on the extra point in the eighth inning to turn a 2-1 deficit into an 8-2 lead.

 

Twins win 7-6 on Torii Hunter's bases loaded walk with two out in the bottom of the ninth.

Sweeping the White Sox is always nice...

 

Thanks for depressing me more.

In all sincerity -- how many wins will win the NL Central? I'm thinking 80 will do the trick

 

82 at the most.

 

Turnbow is one goofy-looking chap.

 

I'll guess Milwaukee with 86. They get to play each other.

 

So that means they're 4-22 when trailing after 7. Yeah, that's a championship ballclub for you.
