The Yankees (despite getting beaten like a bunch of little leaguers by Washington ) and the Windwalkers each clinched playoff spots today. I would be very surprised if Washington and Philadelphia did not both clinch playoff spots in the next day or two. Looking forward to the playoffs. - YankeesSeptember 06, 2003 at 06:16AM View BBCode

Only correcting you because you asked. We had played 150 games of a 162 game season. NY had 94 wins, Wash 92, and Cleve 80. The most Cleve could finish with would have been 92. That would have been enough to tie Wash (provided Wash lost it's last 12) but not NY. In the NL Chicago had 92 wins, Philly 90 and STL 79. Best STL could do was 91, still not enough to catch Chicago. As I write this there are now 10 games left and the playoff spots have all been clinched. Now it is a matter of home field advantage at stake. Good luck to all in playoffs and hopefully no one will have to contend with injuries. :coolSeptember 06, 2003 at 09:11PM View BBCode
it is urgent that this season i beat the windtalkers. i look at that team, and am terrified of them in the next few years. if we let them win this year when we can still say that they are inexperienced we will never forgive ourselves. a championship for the dominateors is a championship for all n.l. teams except for chicago. there are a few other teams with great young players including the cardinals, but chicago seems to be in a class by itself because not only are they young, but they are already winning. to make matters worse the last series i played against them the manager had never taken out 3 injured players including two scheduled sp. if thats a reflection of a manager who is not keeping up with things than that team is that much better than can be observed on first glance.September 06, 2003 at 10:18PM View BBCode

representation of the domiNATEors. you have to look between the numbers, and you see a team filled with champs. all season i have been writing about the philadelphia team with minimal representation in the all star voting, and few top 10 leaders. despite this lack of superstars they have been at or near the top all year. thanks to absolutely impecable managing by the true star of the team, and a great mix of youth and veterans. the phillies have proven that they are the greatest team in jwl history. because noone can be pointed at, and called the mvp. a team in every sense of the word.September 07, 2003 at 03:28PM View BBCode

Hey just because 1/2 my pitching staff is talking about retiring and moving to Florida in the off-season doesn't mean we're old. Does it? :DSeptember 07, 2003 at 09:06PM View BBCode
doesnt that kind of reflect the real life yankees. jugernaut offense and a bunch of grandfathers on the pitching staff. i just think the jwl may have a ynkee team with a more affective bullpen. the yankees have been more succesful at holding off another team but the nationals are definately a scary group. as scared as i am of chicago i wouldnt have a chance against the nationals. im hoping to get some superstar of in this draft, and a couple of sp. than i too will be ready for the future. anyone who is looking to dump some talent for youth, and a run at a high draft pick send the dominateors any quality veterans that may retire after this year. thanksPages: 1
