LMU Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Dont be so sure about CC in NY.I've heard that CC wants to pitch closer to home here in SoCal. More specifically here in Anaheim.I counter your Anaheim with my Los Angeles.Ugh... *sigh*They play in Anaheim... that's why I said in Anaheim... LA City Limits are about 45 miles to the north...Ummm LA city limits are only a scant 24 miles from the Disneyland parking lot. Additionally, the limits are due west or maybe northwest, not north. And, as a matter of fact, as I bust out the ole Thomas Guide, the shortest distance from Anaheim to the LA City Limits is 12 miles, to Wilmington, and 19.5 miles to the ballpark, which is just across the Santa Ana River from Orange, one the west side of the 57.Living in the area for almost 24 years, I've developed the following conclusion... if you can get there in a half hour on the freeway, it's still LA. If the LA Rams could have played in Anaheim, then it's the LA Metro Area, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCall Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 2009 schedules are out(just change the dropdown to get your favorite team)Why is the season starting a week later? Same thing's happening with us in Minor League Baseball. Our first game is April 9th when it's usually about the 3rd.NEVERMIND: Just realized, the World Classic is next year. Checked our 2006 schedule and started about the 6th. So I'm assuming that's the reason for next year's start delay. Carry on. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I hope this is the right place to put this, but for Blue Jay fans, J.P. Ricciardi ( the general manager ) will be back for 09 season.J.P will returnI was expecting, probably others too see him gone. I'm suprised to see him back, but im guessing he is staying thanks to Cito playing ( nothing wrong with that ).I hope J.P can prove us wrong next season in too why he should deserve the gm position.

I remember it taking over an hour to drive between stadiums when I went to games in LA and Anaheim on the same day. Only drive worse than that was going from Anaheim to San Diego in another of those two games same day trips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HedleyLamarr Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 2009 schedules are out(just change the dropdown to get your favorite team)I looked at the Yankees schedule, and their first opponent in new Yankee Stadium will be Cleveland. In addition to that, the Yankees will be the visiting team in three other home openers before opening up the new big ballpark in the Bronx: @ Baltimore, @ Kansas City, and @ Tampa Bay. The Mets open up Citi Field against San Diego.As for the Braves, they'll host Toronto, Boston, and the Yankees for Interleague play, and will have road trips to Boston and Baltimore, and will also play in Cincinnati twice.

If the LA Rams could have played in Anaheim, then it's the LA Metro Area, period.Sorry I didn't go get the exact details. How about it feels like 45 miles? And living in OC for 18 years, there is a distinct difference between LA and OC and personally, I'd like to keep it that way and I'd also like to have it demonstrated. OC has its very own identity different from LA and the "Metro" area. Especially here in South OC.Also, I can get to San Diego in a half hour on the freeway... I don't think SD is LA As for the Rams, I was way too young to remember the Rams (I was 5 when they left) so I can't really speak for that. I never did like it after reading up on it though. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 After allowing just one hit in two innings pitched, Ben Sheets has been pulled from the game against Chicago due to yet another injury.The Brewers are currently up on the Cubs 3-1, but their post-season hopes are in seriously trouble if Sheets hits the DL and Sabathia is comes back down to earth as he did last night.

Cujo Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 The Brew Crew held a 6-2 lead going into the bottom of the 9th at Wrigley, and on cue, the Milwaukee bullpen collapses again as Geovany Soto knots it up at 6 it up with one swing of the bat -- then Derrek Lee drives in the walk-off game winner in the bottom of the 12th. The Cubs' magic number now stands at 2. You're welcome New York and Philadelphia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Brewers lead the league with 19 blown saves this year. That's rediculous. "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten.

Yeah, and I know Milwaukee has had games they've lost being up by 6 runs late and others like this. So if those don't count....I wonder how many games they've lost where they were up by 3 or more runs in the 8th inning. The closers have been so bad, that I get nervous every 9th inning. They could be up 14-0 with two outs and still lose a game. It really is that bad. "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten.

Still MIGHTY Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Well the Angels won again 6-4,But it wasn't just another Angels victory... ughK-Rod is going to give me a heart attack.Angels lead 6-0 in the bottom of the 9th. K-rod then has 3 walks, a hit batter, and 4 runs score before recording the 3rd out and the victory... it was his 59th save. This come a day after the Teixeira hit a 2-run homer in the top of the 9th to take a 2-0 lead but then the Angels would lose on a K-rod throwing error in the bottom of the 9th...Whoever wants K-Rod can have him,I'm just about done with his antics | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
