The Milwaukee Brewers are playing great baseball and are taking their division as nothing is being handed to them. St Louis is really trying to hand the division to the Brewers though by going into Pittsburgh an dumping the first 2 games. It really makes no sense as Pittsburgh had lost a number of games in a row. Maybe the stress is gone from the young team and they are back to just playing baseball as they had done all year but for a 15 game stretch.
Another day and more San Francisco Giants are injured. Beltran, Romo, Keppinger, Sheirholtz and maybe Sanchez. It is amazing the Giants are only 3.5 games back in the division with the most DL moves ever by one team. I will say this, the Diamondbacks have won 7 in a row and showed the heart of a champion by scoring twice in the 9th yesterday off of Roy Halladay. As poorly as the Giants have played, Arizona is making it a mute point by winning everyday.
The Giants got zero respect as champions and the media is saying see last year was a fluke and the cream is really going to rise this year. Hopefully for baseballs sake the Giants can hang in there long enough to make the Arizona series at the end of the month worth a look.
You really have to give the Texas Rangers a ton of credit by going to the home of Angels and taking the first 2 games in dominating fashion. They are leaving no doubt who the best team is in the West.
The Tigers do not seem to have the finishing touch in the Central and Cleveland wants it so bad they fight every night. The team that seems to want the Central the most is the scalding hot White Sox. I say I am sorry to the White Sox. I said about 10 days ago that it seemed like they had given up. Their manager and G.M knew what they were doing and have a great chance to win this division.
My friend was giving a hard time the other day because I had mentioned Tiger Woods 3 days in a row last week, so here I go again. The media is hoping or was hoping that Tiger would play this week so he could sneak into the Fed Ex playoffs. How absurd leave it alone he will be outside the top 60 in the world soon enough, let the guy figure it out. If I hear one more time that this guy is still right now one of the top 10 US players in the world, I will throw a remote thru a television. He is not top 30 in the US.
