Seen this, Snapper?


TIEBREAKER TRAVELS: The Rockies were involved in eight of the 28 coin flips and fared well in the Wild Card flips and weren't as lucky in the division race. If the Rockies tied for the National League West title, they would play at home against the Dodgers and on the road against the Diamondbacks and Padres.

In case of a tie in the Wild Card -- which at four games back the Rockies are a more likely candidate -- they would host a one-game playoff against the Padres, Dodgers, Phillies and Brewers. If the Rockies tied with the Cubs, they would travel to Chicago.

Yeah I saw it. It confused me at first bit I figured it out. LOL I really feel like we have a chance, especially after last night. I mean, even if we make the playoffs and just bomb, who cares? It will be friggin amazing no matter what!!!

So, Kap sent me FOUR Troy Tulowitzki rookie cards...they are so awesome, I just thought I would share that with you. I'm already looking forward to trying to get them signed next season!

Luck you

Troy's going to be amazing. I think he can be a .300 35 100 type of guy for his career...Nomar-like

Ok here's my final season standings predictions

1) Arizona 90-72
2) Colorado 88-74 (Wild Card)
3) LA Dodgers 86-76
4) San Diego 85-77
5) San Francisco 79-83

But this offseason will be very interesting, as well. I've heard that we might try to trade Garrett for some more starting pitching...as well as Hawpe and Baker thrown into the mix. Hopefully we can nail down Holliday for the next 5 years and

Atkins is for sure on the market, sorry Kap. Hawpe...I would rather him stay, Baker can go...

LOL

As if I have any say over what happens, but who cares.

I made this word doc at that beginning of the season....I havent opened it, but I am going to right now...DUN DUN DUN.

It said:

You are betting yourself this:

NL WEST:

Dodgers
Rockies
Padres
Diamond Backs
Giants



Dear Lord I am a bit off.

Oh and like Kap said, I am also gonna try and catch some Rugby today. Sports OD!!!

Losing Garrett and Hawpe would seriously dent the Hot Rox image.

But I will handle.

Troy not winning the ROY will be the biggest robbery of the year! What are HR's if you can't defend as well?

It is sad. I think Braun has an error chance of 1 in 10 oppurtunties. That's bloody pathetic!

ROY should be an all round performance.

Troy holds up on both ends!
