Entire game changes in postseason

What I think Not Bruce was saying, though, was that let’s get to the playoffs, then get through the NL, before we worry about the AL

And, as much as I like the Rays, I think they could be a 2006 Detroit situation … they’ll do fine in the playoffs until they realize, “Oh, crap, we’re in the WS,” and then fold under pressure

by cocknfire on Jul 2, 2008 10:41 PM CDT up reply actions  

It's a crock that it means anything to begin with.

It;s supposed to be an exhibition game, a showcase for the game’s best. They should either go back to alternating years or go with whichever team has the better record.

Murton

Saw on MLBtraderumors today that the Rays are looking at Murton….wonder what they would give up for him?

A couple of jugs of freshly squeezed Tropicana?

You think Hendry could try tricking them into thinking that David Price guy isn’t all that good?

Kidding of course…..but only a little bit. I think there is a clause somewhere in the paperwork from when they gave Tampa Bay a team 11 years ago that if they are ever in 1st place at the ASB that they have to do anything in their power to fix their mistake.
