2005 MLB Season

Anyone on KMC want to bat for the A's right now? I bet we could score more runs than what their putting up.😂

Anyways, it's not looking good for the A's and Giants. Benitez's injury kills the Giants as they now have to go to a bullpen by committee which has been okay so far but won't last and I have no idea how Barry's situation will come out.

The A's are just a terrible terrible offensive team right now. If there are some positives it's that their starting pitching has been better than expected and their bullpen has been excellent. Their offense will have to pick up sooner or later as Eric Chavez is not going to bat .200 for the year.

A few days ago I saw one of the best unintentional comedy moments of the year on Sportscenter. They were doing one of those fact or fiction things on the Yankees and when they asked John Kruk whether Brian Cashman would last they season, Kruk said "I say it's fact, he's had to work with limited resources the last few years," LIMITED RESOURCES!!! Brian Cashman GM of the New York Yankees; a team with a 200 million pay roll has LIMITED RESOURCES! What does this make the Devil Rays if the Yankees have LIMITED RESOURCES? Comedy at its finest!

Nice to see Dontrell Willis having a great year. That's the kind of guy you want to see succeed.

ah your an M's fan too? welcome to dissapointment land with me. Do you live around seattle?

Its so funny to see the Yankees lose. SInce the Phillies and Red aren't doing anything, and The Red Sox are doing okay.

Im so pissed the damnMariners have good hitters but there bullpen is just shit theve dropped 9 out of 10 they dont deserve this they just came off a 99 losses last season we dont need more disappointment... what happened to our 95 team🙁 Ive been a fan for so long its just starting to really piss me off and im sick of losing in like 30 years we got lik 4 division wins that it 0 world series appearences🙁

ahh a mere 9 days ago the yankees were playing horrible... finally were doing better.. i understand that they are still 5 games behind first... but every team in the east especially the red sox feel us coming behind them... the yanks are a tidal wave every day they pick up more and more momentum.. and also Tino is amazing everyone... who would have thought he would be tided for the M.L. lead in homers with Alex..

went to the Phillies game tonight. Against the Cards. It was doller hot dog day too, which is basically why i went. Abreu hit another home-run.. he is on fire.... i think he would have ten straight games with a homer except one game it hit the top of the wall. Phils won 7-5. Pedro from Napolean Dynamite was there to sing take me out to the ballgame.

i must point out SCHEDULE! look who NY has been playing.. we will see if they are back on track once they play some real teams. and the bigger suprise then tino is that Brian Roberts is at 11 HR, Clint barnes is leading the NL in BA, and Garland and Willis are the leading pitchers

While the Yankees have been playing weak teams, an 11 game winning streak is still impressive no matter who you face. I think the Yankees will cool off soon, but I do think they will battle Boston and Baltimore for the division. They are old but they are still probably the most talented team out there.

The two problems that I see happening is if the Yankees age starts becoming a factor as the season deepens and they really can't make any trades to strengthen them for the stretch run since most of their players are untradable. The Yankees three man DH (Giambi, Bernie, Sierra) almost costs as much as the Devil Rays. 😂

Too bad the mariners snapped their win streak the mainers are playing a hard teams they play boston the ny then boston then ny now there playing the padres who had a 8 game win streak. Until last night

yea when i looked at the mariners schedule i was like wow they might not win a game in may lol There should be a stat for robbing home runs, because i think ichiro could set the record this year

Yanks are doing fine, so are the Mets. Even Washington is better, as well are the O's. Subway Series, North V.S South (Sox, Cubs), Battle of L.A., Battle of/by the Bay, Battle of Ohio, and Florida that the O's and Nats didn't play against each other. Not fair, now that's a rivalry.

Brian Roberts and Javy Lopez got hurt tonight in Sosa's first game back

Im soo happy about my Blue Jays.
3rd place in the east (thats good) and above the Yankee's.

I dont care what place they eventually get but this team is much better than last couple of years, funny since Delgado is gone.
It all depends on Roy Halliday, who is going to be having a monster season. Tied MLB in wins, thats awesome.

im not sure how i feel about instant replay for baseball.. but the orioles lost a game on a horrible Balk call tonight.. that when looking at the replay was clearly not a balk.. and brain roberts may have been safe when stealing earlier on.

well, i think there should be replay, but only if its absolutley needed, or maybe just in the playoffs

the only problem i can see is strike zone. this is a bit far fetched.. but if they keep using technology to rule on plays how far off is a "digital" strike zone.. they already have the "K-zone" for tvs.. wouldnt be hard to call balls and strikes more accuratly from the booth and relay to the umpire.. or even if not can instant replay be used on a strike/ball call? do coaches get x# of challenges like in the NFL and the rest of the time the umpires can use it, if they are not sure.

Strike zone should not be replayed. Its part of the game because its all about knowing the ump behind the plate. It gives baseball its mystique.

Replay should only be used for homeruns considering alot of playoffs have started and ended with some punk kid catching the ball when it clearly shows that it wouldnt of gone over. Or even for foul balls.

But never for strikes. That would take so much bloody time and i dont think its useful either because the strikezone is more about the umpires opinion on where it is than a definite answer.

Considerings its near the All Star break, who do you think is going to win the Cy Young etc etc?

yeah it shouldnt be used for strikes. I think Cy Young is Dontrelle Willis. MVP, well i want it to be Abreu because he never got enough credit for how good he is, and he is on the Phillies 😄 but i think Derek Lee might get it too. AL cy young is Garland, and AL MVP, i dont know.
