May I please have the numbers for the nest lottery drawing.................Not!! I don't see the Braves winning the NL East in 2007. I could even see the Phils coming in ahead of them, as well as the Mets, who should repeat as Divisional Champs, unless all the kid pitchers are bums.

Braves winning it is a joke...they are on the cusp of trading Andruw Jones and Adam LaRoche and plugging in young guys... This team is sunk.

timbok Posted December 30, 2006 Author Share Posted December 30, 2006 lets see here do the mets have one good pitcher for an ace? And please don't say Glavine i'll laugh. Realy besides there offense they have no pitching what so ever. Zito was there last chace and now they have who? Pitching wins championships,hitting helps. And in the National league U NEED GOOD PITCHING TO WIN But it should be a fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about big names. It's about good players. Don't believe me? Randy Johnson is a pretty big name isn't he? How's that working for the Yankees. Neither the Mets nor Braves have a very good starting rotation as of right now but moves will be made and then it'll be a bit easier to get an idea as to who will do what. No way Minaya enters the season with his current pitching staff. He'll add more arms either before ST or before the All-Star break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, now if you would...please explain to me how the teams are "almost even in every way" yet the Braves winning the division a "a virtual lock". Now if the Braves do win the division, the good thing for you is that come post season, you'll be able to walk up to the ticket window five minutes before game time and get a ticket if you want to take in a ball game.

For both teams hitting is a big art of there teams. But a manager is the reason gor wining and loseing. Randolph is good,Cox is thee best. If u look at it in one way you see an more expierenced brave team,to an inexpierenced team that kicked ball's last year. But i think the bravs make it through this year.

SouthernJet Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 And Randolph is better? uh yes. Cox may be one of worst managers in league. He doesnt have jack to show for ALL the great teams he had. And he totally goes in crapper when Leo Mazzone adioses. Plus he is major boozehound.

Sharrow Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 Even if Cox hasn't had as much success in the post season as he has had in the regular season, you can't say that randolph is better yet, imo. Anyway, the regular season is what matters when it comes to winning the division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFJF Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 And Randolph is better? It's a pointelss part of the discussion as to which manager is better. Who knows what Willie would do with the old braves pithing staff that Cox was able to get one ring out of with over ten tries. We'll just never know. I do think that Willie proved himself last season by winning with an ancient/banged up pitching staff. He also learned A LOT of what he knows from Joe Torre who has managed to handle your manager quite well in the post season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what you said in your initial post and now you're consistently saying that the two teams are very even. Which is it? Are the Braves "a lock" to win the division (if so, why) or are they "about even" in which case this whole thread is kind of pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lock:If the Braves kept Giles,and got a new pitcher it would be a lock i was being optimistic. And i've got some good pointers from some of you met fans. Evenness:Pitching,Hitting,fielding,coaching,everything is just about 100% even. Lock;wishful thinking Evenness:realailty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lock;wishful thinking Evenness:realailty cool, as long as you're willing to acknowledge that it's no lock. If either team goes out and adds some pitching, that team will be a lock. VERY weak division that's there for any team with a GM to make deal and an owner to pay for the arms. Hell, somebody in that division would probably benefit greatly if they added a guy like Randy Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bones Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 Not only are the Mets better than the Braves but so are the Phillies.
