Another dagger in the hearts of Cubs fans everywhere. Colorado is the last of the recent expansion teams to make it to the World Series before they do. And I fully expect the Rockies to win it all, too.

 

Tampa Bay sucks. However, 3 down, 1 to go with Colorado, Zona, and Florida doing it...unless of course you are just talking NL here, then that's different I suppose.

 

 

 

And, even if Arizona gets close and this guy hits a 3-run homer (he won't), Arizona did their part to maintain the equilibrium in the game today.

 

LOL, and as I type this, he parks it. He won't...riiiiiight.

Rockies fans are awesome. Especially with Tulo.

With more people getting to realize how great Tulowitzki is (and he may end up being better than Reyes & Hanley Ramirez), I'm beginning to wonder when analysts start comparing this crop of 3 young stud ss's to the last crop of threes that came into the league (the past time it was in the AL and it was Jeter/Arod/Nomar).

The phrase "National League Champion Colorado Rockies" is just something that really never crossed my mind before a couple of weeks ago. I personally felt that they would make it to the World Series where they would fall to the Indians, but maybe, just maybe they'll somehow pull it out. I'll certainly be rooting for them.

Boo cheating. :P

 

Thank you, thank you, no applause is needed. :D Lol, I actually had every prediction right so far looking at the thread in every series but if there is one prediction I seriously hope I'm wrong of, it's the World Series prediction. I pray that Colorado gets it. It'll be nice to see Helton get a ring even though I'm a Kenny Lofton fan as well. But I love the Rockies and the city. Some players who you love to root for are more on the Colorado side.

I'll be rooting for the AL. It's embarrassing that the Cards won last year, and I don't want the AL to let another sub-90 win team win it all again.

LOL at Melvin letting Drew swing away. It looked like they had Corpas on the ropes for a second. Melvin was badly outmanaged in this series. If Ozzie pulled some of this crap two years ago, I don't know what I would have done.

 

I still think the winner of the AL wins it all.

 

I'd be SHOCKED if Melvin gave him the green light. I really don't think he did......but if he didn't...he did a damn good job of keeping his poker face on...and will probably talk to Drew later....OFF CAMERA.

It's possible that he didn't, but you have to assume he did.

If the Rockies get the pitching they've been getting, I don't see either AL team having a chance.

 

Ehh -- the difference between either AL lineup and the D'Backs is so enormous it isn't even funny. You could obviously do this for every player in the order, but things are just a tad bit different when you're pitching to number three hitter Eric Byrnes vs number three hitter Travis Hafner or David Ortiz.

 

And I know this isn't the ALCS thread, but the ALCS so far has been everything I could've asked for. I'll be shocked if the series doesn't make its way back to Boston. Those are two great baseball teams going at it.

I was thinking the pretty much the same thing during the pregame when they were talking about Byrnes being the heart and soul of the team an lineup... I was thinking he would probably hit 6th or 7th on a typical championship club.

Wow, this post just made me realize Kenny Lofton does not have a ring. I didn't even realize that for some reason.

 

As much of a dick as he was with the Sox, I've always been a huge fan, and I have to root for him to get it.
