Who would you rather run into in the playoffs?

I’d like the odds that in a majority of games I could beat the stuffing out of the Mets’ bullpen.

by Getting Yosted on Sep 24, 2008 8:55 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Dodgers were barely above .500 for much of the season and don’t have Johan Santana.

They have the best overall pitching staff, no doubt, but I think the Cubs have them beat SP-wise in the first three games of a series, which they don’t against New York.

Ryan Braun: He loves it.

You might think so but Zambrano hasn't been great in his last two starts

Do you really trust Dempster? I think the dodgers have a much better chance than you might think.

That's why

we need kirbir and the Kow.

Which sounds a lot like BJ and the Bear. Which also would be appropriate.

Because the Brewers have more of a cushon for the bullpen,

who will probably give up a few runs.

You have no concept

Sveum can sit on his a$$ for two bad pitches, but he would never allow three bad pitches from a reliever. So now we are outside the Sveum Incompetence Zone, and it is safe to have a marginally craptacular pitcher brought in

Bill has a point

If you know that tomorrow’s starter is only going a few innings, and you’ll be relying on the bullpen tomorrow, there’s at least a reason to have CC go the extra inning.

Ok.

But with the expanded rosters, it’s not like you need everyone to be available. If you go with Gagne there, you’ll go into tomorrow with McClung, DeFilice, and Villy all fresh. If those guys plus Gallardo can’t get you to the 9th, it doesn’t matter who else you have.

but you'd dip into those other pitchers if you used Gagne today

so…that’d wash out that advantage.

I really hated him when he was a Cardinal...

… but it’s hard for me to maintain my loathing for a guy who hates Larussa as much Edmonds does.

I was in law school with a guy who knew Edmonds from his minor league days.

Every time Edmonds name came up he’d tell a 5 minute story about what an a-hole Edmonds was.

Maybe it is just me but it seems like the Cubs whine waaaaaaay more than any other team

Normally it upsets me but today I am hoping it gets them a call or two.
