 YES. IT's SEPTEMBER
Well someone asked " Is it September Yet?" Indeed it is. Man-O-Man what a second half of the season it has been. YANKEES look GREAT. Just about 20 games left, and I missed a little in my April Prediction. Looks like it will be the Orioles in last instead of the Jays (Both teams for the Birds). I got the rest Right YANKEES SOX RAYS Sox should get the WILD CARD It ain't over yet but I figure they should survive. I'm going to stick my neck out again, and make a few more PREDICTIONS: WORLD SERIES: YANKEES over PHILLIES in 7 games. MVP: Derek Jeter CY YOUNG : CC Sabathia and Mariano Rivera. (YES it has been shared by 2 pitchers before.) MANAGER OF THE YEAR: (WHO ELSE? ) but "JOE" the NEW Yankee SKIPER. (HE already has won the award in FLORIDA a fews years ago.) SURE I'm a YANKEE fan, BUT these guys DESERVE it if anybody has been paying ATTENTION. EVEN if ALL my PREDICTIONS don't turn out true, IT's been a HELL-OF a year for the BRONX BOMBERS. Should win 100 games too. Last edited by Angler Ace; 09-09-2009 at 04:59 PM.   |

First its spelled "Pitcher" not "Picture". Yes the Yankees are in 1st and will win the division congrats on that. But in October anything can happen, This isn't the baseball of old where there is the "Yankees" then "everyone else". I think you went a little Yankee happy with your predictions. Sounds a little Lop-sided to me. Zach Grenkie is definitely up there for the CY Young award. |

We can only hope that the sox secure the wild card. I like our chances against LA in the post season. Yankees certainly are cruising now. Maybe they are all on steroids. Not much better than a Boston-NY series in October. |

It would be nice to see the Yanks and Sox go at it again for all the marbles. |

With all the names being mentioned for MVP. The only one I can't agree with is Joe Mauer. Anyone who's home field is made of ASTRO TURF should be batting over 400. It is not fair to other ball players, the way that baseball shoots across that stuff, it's like bouncing a baseball on cemet. Here is some stats, to prove my point: Mauer at home 376 Jeter at home 320 Mauer .56 better Mauer away 354 Jeter away 341 Mauer ONLY .13 better I didn't reasearch any of the other hitters, just used the MVP award for an example. ASTRO TURF should not figure into the MVP. Even if Mauer won the award with the away average, HOW COULD HE BE THAT VALUABLE to a team that could end up losing more games than they won. |

It's seems like it is the yankees year, but MLB playoffs don't follow any predictible pattern anymore. everyone wants Yankees vs. red sox in the ALCS. What if Angels and/or Tigers spoil the party? |

your basing your MVP vote on astro turf? They don't use that anymore, everyone is using field turf now.

Also the Twins and Tigers are fighting for the Division as we speak. So he must be "valuable" for something...

Personally I feel Jeter's numbers can't compare to Mauer's, regardless of home playing surface. I'd give the upper hand to Mauer because he is a catcher and endures a whole season of catching and continues to hit well. The driving factor behind Jeter would have to be the Yankees' great success. I hate to say it, but they are just tearing through teams. It would also be nice to see Jeter win one, since he hasn't, and has had such a great career. All this coming from a Yankee Hater. I'd lean towards Mauer, but it will be close. |
