Peavy, Eaton and Lawrence will define themselves as did Glavine, Smoltz and maddox did 15 years ago. Woody Williams aint so bad either.

3. No
I think he meant the team in the state founded by English Catholics that the team there would win the world series.

10. Ha yeah and thats why your sorry asses
Edited on Fri Mar-25-05 04:30 PM by JohnKleeb
lost the season series to Boston last year oh yeah and 3-0 became 3-4 yet we won ours. With a little pitching, a little luck, and a little devil worshipping, the orioles could be a team to watch.

15. Ha seriously
The reason why you guys are gonna decline is because you didn't work on your farm system. Its why all the Yankee dyansties of the past have declined. Its what happened in the 60's and 80's and it will happen again maybe not now but sometime.

16. Any team with Ryan 'Lead Legs' Klesko as the 'anchor of the middle lineup'
isn't going anywhere. Sorry, Padres might be decent, but they won't win it all. Especially when Klesko has to play in PetCo Park all the time. That is the last place Klesko should play. He should be an Oriole or a Rockie.

17. Klesko will win the Triple Crown this Year.
Woody Williams will win 27 games too. Hoffmann notches 64 saves to shatter the ML record. Pads win 118 regular season games.
Bruce Bochy breathes life back into a near-dead Terri Schaivo. Sean Burroughs hits more than 6 HRs in a season.
