to be fair, the marlins played the nationals 6 times and then played a decent team and got swept by pitt

to be fair, this thread is beyond fucking retarded...

Mets and Braves are both good teams, and they were obv 11-1 before getting swept by Pitts so how is that close to relevant to what I said?

umm 50% of your wins

Toronto is in the toughest division in baseball and has yet to play vs anyone from their division. Washington sucks, but Toronto has had a much easier part of their schedule to start off.

Nice work in April fellas, I'll bookmark this thread for August when you guys are whining about inevitable injuries to fragile pitching staff and inequality in payrolls.

PS- Doc Halladay owns but they still don't win 90 games

nah i never whine about payroll. the jays spend a lot more now then recent years ago. at least they are giving themselves a bit of a chance.
the wildcard is going to the AL east anyways, so why can't it be the jays this year.

and yes we have been in the spot before and the yanks and sox dominated us late in the year to pull away.

lol, I love how everyone has jumped ship on the Mets SP already 3 turns thru the rotation, and 2 of them are hurt...

yea, the Mets as is are not a "threat" in the east... lmfao

we have played 15 games, and played them like shit, and are 6-9... most of them have been on the road too... Philly is 6-8, Florida WILL fade...

just because your Cards just swept them, doesn't mean you can bury them... that is so dumb

Toronto will be right up there until August. And not cause they will choke, look at their schedule for August

consecutive series

3 @ NY
3 @ TB
3 vs Bos
3 vs LAA
3 vs TB
3 @ Bos

Thats fucking nasty.

My Cards sweeping them has nothing to do with what I said. My team has their own holes. My feeling on the Mets isn't based off of the first 15 games either, I fealt this way before the season started. It's based off of the Mets starting rotation.

Maybe me saying they're not a threat is going a little overboard. Obv they have a shot and winning the east because their lineup is so strong, and their bullpen is good, and most of the teams in the East each have problems in one way or another. I just wouldn't bet on them to win with the rotation that they have.

Santana - Stud without a doubt.
Maine - Probably a number 3 when on.
Perez - Freaking head case who has had all the talent in the world forever but can't put it together, and you never know what you're going to get.
Pelfrey- Hasn't lived up to his potential. Puts way to many runners on base.
Hernandez - Can't believe he is even still in the league.

If they upgraded their rotation they could be one of the favorites in the NL but they threw way too much money at head case Perez, and needed to add another. I think they will by the deadline.

by fade, I meant not likely to go 11-4 in anymore 15 game stretches, and will be closer to a +.500ish team IMO and not .600ish... Marlins are legit, but not this good

sf this, jp go after a starting pitcher plzzzzzzzzzzz. look how much depth we have but there all injured.

the bats are fking insane right now

, 01 mariners, 05 white sox and the 09 blue jays are the only ever teams to start a season with 5 series wins. sox won the ws if i remember correct and the mariners won like 115 games

Perez - Freaking head case who has had all the talent in the world forever but can't put it together, and you never know what you're going to get. and he is also 25-17 with a high 3 ERA, 1.35ish WHIP and .232ish BAA over the last 2 years
Pelfrey- Hasn't lived up to his potential. Puts way to many runners on base. his WHIP is too high fasho, but had a sick 2nd half last year after a rough start, and is pitching with a stiff/tired forearm right now, I can see him going on the DL for a bit and coming back strong, or pitching thru it - he is a good pitcher
Hernandez - Can't believe he is even still in the league. lol me either, but if we can learn to yank him after 4 or 5, he can be effective - but I expect us to make a move here, or bring up Niese or someone, I haven't really paid attention to who is pitching well in minors yet

the Mets are still most people/expert/book's favorites to win the NL, even with the slow start... Perez will have his bad starts, but he also dominates at times - I wish we signed Lowe instead, but there is no salary cap so I don't really care how much we paid him... yes, I think we will make a move too
