    I think yes. Rockies have given us trouble in the past for some strange reason, but this is a different team.

    BTW, Puig was still in 2nd place for the vote in. He's gotta get in....no?

    Dbags will take 3-4 from the shitty ass Brewers and we'll be put in a hole by worthless Crapuano. Who knows though, it's a whole new blue. ;)

    Puig will not be going to New York unless someone gets injured.

    As for the standings...no idea! Capuano pitching doesn't help. And I think Tulo/Fowler/Cargo will all be in the lineup

    Problem with us is we're the NL Wests World Series. These Rocky/Giant/Padre/D-Bag motherfuckers all want a rivalry with us and play us as hard as they can, they don't really give two fucks about each other. We gotta put teams like the Rockies in their place.

    Crap or Cap. Thought Nolasco would have helped that. I actually prefer Fife to Crap\Cap.

    On another thought...if you had 1 more trade to do, would you go for SP, relief pitching, or a batter?

    The doctors expect Bills to be back soon. They used some muscle fibers from his vagina to repair the elbow. Doctors suspect his FIP will only get better, and will go on a rehab assignment in Rancho on the 20th.

    Agreed. I don't think a 3B/2B is going to be a realistic option so a starter would be great, especially given that Fife has already had to go on the DL twice with that shoulder (plus I like him as our #6 guy to be honest). I honestly think we can trade for a rental #3/#4 starter to be our #4/#5 with Nolasco and make our rotation unfair (also will help in case Ryu has a second half downfall given it is his first year here and he might not have the stamina, oh and cause he's fat)

    getting damn close considering where we were a month ago...

    And today, for the first time, Puig went 1-7 and dropped to .394!! And Han Ram kicked it up and is now hitting .409!!

    These two can play tag team on the .400 pace all day long as far as I care


    First Place or Bust!!

    Being in the nl west isn't a problem, it's the only reason this thread is about first place. Any other division .500 still sucks. Id love to have to face powerhouses like you guys get.

    Don't you check out VRP's links to the hypothetical pythagorean standings?

    Braun had to use up all his roids before the asb since he's probably gonna get suspended. He will rake and beat the dbags single handedly which gets us in first.

    Good Bullpen Arm is still probably most important
