Posted September 4, 200321 yr Our last 22 games our against the NL East! We are 33-21 against the East this year. The Braves are 30-21, and the Phillies are 30-29. How do you predict we finish? I say 15-7! Which will make our record 91-71. Our last 22 games our against 3 in San Juan 3 in Queens 3 in Miami against the Braves 3 in Philly 4 in Atlanta 3 in Miami versus Philly 3 in Miami versus NYM That is 9 at home and 13 on the road. We are a crappy road team, but we own Philly and the Mets, so we'll have to pull it out against PR, and Atlanta will be okay because their season is over. Phillies: 4 in Philly against NYM 4 in ATL 3 in Pitt 3 in Philly against FL 3 in Philly against Cin 3 in Miami 3 in Philly against ATL Philly has 13 at home and 10 on the road. Lets say we beat them 4 out of 6. So if they go 10 and 7 versus every one else, their record will be 12 and 11. If that happens were the champs. A And I was being nice saying we'd take 4 of 6 from them. Their bullpen is garbage, and we can feast on that. Ill change it to 5 out of 6.
September 4, 200321 yr i say 16-6 Which we will end with 92 wins and 70 loses that would be awesome for this team , and maybe we can keep every player and get better ones to make the team better for next year
September 4, 200321 yr Their bullpen is garbage, and we can feast on that. You know that Jose Mesa is no longer there closer if that's the point your trying to make.
September 4, 200321 yr You know that Jose Mesa is no longer there closer if that's the point your trying to make. Well, we killed Mike Williams even worse. I assume he's the new closer?
September 4, 200321 yr Well, we killed Mike Williams even worse. I assume he's the new closer? I have no clue if an official announcement was made but basically it's Carlos Silva. Your going to see very little of Jose Mesa as THe Phils try to avoid having to pick up his option.
September 4, 200321 yr mesa sucks. williams sucks. a goat would be a better choice of closer than these two.
September 4, 200321 yr mesa sucks. williams sucks. a goat would be a better choice of closer than these two. THat took a lot of thought didn't it. You will see almost nothing of Mesa, Mesa is only a few games of way of getting another season at 5 mil, you will see nothing of him. Williams role is basically clean up, Silva is an excellent closer till he most likely becomes a starter next year. After that The Phils Pen is solid so I don't know how two players who you will see little of affects The Pen. Also Miami15 what are you talking about THe Marlins are champs? THe Braves are easily the champs of this division, I don't know how not winning your division makes you a champ.
September 4, 200321 yr oh trust me..... the phils have a decent pen, with the exception of these two. but its these two who have had the most prominent positions in the bullpen for the most part, so naturally they would get the press. silva needs to hang out with mesa and williams....
September 4, 200321 yr Author I was saying we play better against the East, than anyone else does. Joe Table, and Mike Williams may not be the closers anymore, but Silva isn't Smoltz or Gagne. Plus, it isn't like they go 8 with the starters and bring in Silva. GO METS!
September 4, 200321 yr Hopefully the fish wins 4 out of 6 against the phills in there last 6 games against each other!! it could happen :guillotine
September 4, 200321 yr My Guess: 13-9 @ San Juan: (1-2) @ New York: (2-1) vs. Atlanta: (2-1) @ Philadelphia: (2-1) @ Atlanta: (2-2) vs. Philadelphia: (2-1) vs. New York: (2-1)
September 4, 200321 yr Author My bad, the Braves are 30-27 Looper isn't Gagne or Smoltz but he aint bad. Combined with Uggy he has been very effective. Silva has an era of 4.48. He has two saves in his career. Going into the final stretch of a playoff run, would you want a guy with two career saves as your closer? He got his only save before the allstar break, and has a era of over 6 since then. His August ERA was 4.50.
September 5, 200321 yr And Looper is? i hope i dont jinx anything, but Looper has been damn good this year.....
