It's one thing to lose by 12, it's another thing for your stud pitcher to give up 8 earnies in less than 3 innings, with the last 2 RBIs driven in by the opposing pitcher. Come on, Martin, even you are somewhat discouraged by what's taken place. This my friend, is NOT how you prepare yourself for the playoffs by getting shellacked on consecutive nights.
torn calf muscle....Schilling pitched with his achilles hanging out and bleeding for the Sox. Pedro is a sissy - just like the rest of the Mets. 1 and done.........might actually get swept
yeah... Pedro is done... the Mets are done... You can't just play 30-40 games and not care, then just decide 1 day that it's time to turn back on the switch. This is part of what slammed the braves the last few years. Get up 10-15 games, relax and go 11-15 in Sept, then get bounced
you mean like the white sox did last year, playing mediocre ball from mid august until the playoffs started? how did that work out? not every team is the worlds top champion of choking in the playoffs like the braves. other teams can relax late and be fine. the braves are just a very wretched squad. you are very very wrong: 2005 white sox: 4-10 during one stretch in september, turning a 9½-game lead to 1½ 2002 angels: 5-8 over last 13 games of the season 2001 Diamondbacks: 14-13 in september/october 2000 yankees: 13-18 in september/october, 2-13 in last 15 games, lost last seven 1997 marlins: 12-15 in september, 2-7 in last nine games
