Johnny Rockets

Recommended Posts

I'm gonna say Rockies vs Angels.

Why?

I have no idea.

Mostly because I don't think I have heard anyone else pick this matchup and I'm sick of hearing about every other team that is involved.

Yeah, pretty stupid.

And that is probably how it will turn out. In recent memory, it usually is one of the underdogs winning it all isn't it? Rockies are hot and that usually carries into the post season in baseball. Angels are a very solid team also.

The Yankees win only because God hates Johnny Rockets more

If by chance it is Yankees vs. Phillies in the world series...I believe game 4 would be in Philly on the same day the Eagles would be playing the Giants across the street. Would be awesome to be in Philly that day.

Road trip? Free meals and place to stay!

The stat geeks that come on the local sportstalker pretty well have it that once the postseason starts, you CAN indeed "throw out the records" when it comes to baseball.

The "best" teams don't always win, and it is something of a statistical crapshoot as to who gets to the WS and even who wins.

Homefield advantage is not particularily significant either.

Dunno, I just think it would be kinda funny if the Angels and Rocks get in, since every TV east of the big river will be tuned out.

And the New York/Boston contingent will be pouty.

I'm just SOOOO glad the Bears are playing ok, otherwise I'd be on suicide watch and/or heavily medicated.

Well I was gonna say the same exact thing.

Rockies may not get there, but I really think this is the Angels' year.

Pitching trumps everything else.

That's why I'm taking the only staff with 5 starters with 10+ wins this year.

Rockies

Vs

Red Sox

I think a healthy Wake, Beckett, Lester and Papelbon take down the Evil Empire.

Rockies in a riveting Game 6

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
