NL EAST Preview

Featured Replies

We'll win the World Series with a shocking NL East win with a 119-43, and then sweep the playoffs ( 11-0 ) giving us a total record of 130-43, Hermida wins ROY, Cabrera wins NL MVP, NLCS MVP, WS MVP, and Batting title..

I'll stop now

They forgot to mention that the Mets are the Mets and the Braves are the Braves. We were favored over the Braves last year and couldn't get it done, and the Mets have recycled our players...a year older, and after what seems to be a continual decline from Dook...and they are favored?

 

The Mets have brought in mass amounts of free agents before, and it's gotten them no where. And they still have one of the worst rotation/bullpens in the NL, not as bad as last year, but still bad.

I dont think our team will be any good until at least 2007, not when we have Brian Moehler, Pokey Reese, and Joe Borowski taking major roles(possibly Wes Helmes too).

 

The Nationals are pretty even talent wise, so saying we can easily finish ahead of them is absurd.

 

One thing though, hopefully the kids on the team can figure out how to hit Livan.

I dont think our team will be any good until at least 2006

 

Um....it is 2006 right now. Welcome.

Wow, thank you for sharing that in-depth insight and wisdom.

I don't see anyway the Marlins finish ahead of the Nationals. The Nationals have four or five relievers that would be our closer, and that's not even including the two decent lefties they have in the pen. I like Willis better than any starter they have, but I like their rotation as a whole better than ours for this year.

 

Position player wise I would say that Cabrera is a huge edge for us, but other than that I think that the Nationals are equal to or better than the Marlins at every position on the field.

If we were in any division besides the NL East, I'd say there's a chance we'd end up 4th in the division. But we're in the NL East. Do you screwballs remember how good this division was last year?

Just my opinion, but this is the weakest the division has been in quite some time.

 

Mets got better at the expense of the Marlins and Phillies.

 

Braves slightly declined.

 

Phillies declined.

 

Marlins fell off a cliff.

 

Nats got worse by getting rid of Wilkerson for an overrated player.

Soriano is a much better baseball player than Brad Wilkerson.

 

 

Looked at Soriano's road numbers lately?

 

Or the fact that he doesn't want to play in the outfield.

 

He puts up elite offensive production as a secondbaseman, but if he moves to the outfield it's just a waste.

We'll see. The NL is a fastball league and Soriano crushes fastballs.

 

The only thing Brad Wilkerson does better than Soriano is that he walks alot.

 

One other thing that Wilkerson does way better than Soriano....WHIFF.....615 times the last four years....incredible. For a player like Adam Dunn numbers like that would be acceptable, but not for a player like Wilkerson.

We have 2 players from your 25 man roster last season. That's not exactly recycling your entire line-up. And we're surrounding LoDuca and Delgado with better talent than you had on offense last season. Pedro and Glavine can still pitch, but I'll be the first to say I'm petrified at the depth there. The pen will be much better, but still not as good as it should be.

 

We have brought in mass amounts of free agents before, just not this season. One player who will make a significant contribution to the team (Wagner) and two bench players (Valentin and Franco).

And we're surrounding LoDuca and Delgado with better talent than you had on offense last season.

 

One of the most ridiculous over-exaggerations ever.
