1990 BOLD Predictions Thread

[BradZ]

Whoa... whoa... I think we could have a VERY healthy debate about the worst franchise. And I'm not sure we're the only ones in the hunt.

I don’t know Clay. CAL’s been to the playoffs 3 times, the Brewmaster’s twice, won it once . . . . and still has an overall winning % of .423, barely ahead of the expansion Mohawks (.406). I mean, wow.

They won only 32 games once in a season. Seriously.

[Clay]

Hence the need for the debate. I think on paper, you can easily make the argument for Cali sight unseen. However, if you factor in intangibles like Draft Busts, Major Injuries, Contracts, etc... other teams suddenly enter the conversation.

True. Plus, I guess I can make a healthy argument that my franchise is the worst just based on its geographic location.

[Carlos]

You guys can have your argument. Denver will ride along like the Middle Class - unnoticed.

Whats all this shit talking of Indy? Clowns are supposed to be looked at as lovable, happy beings. Leave us the FUCK alone!!!

Plus, when the Clown bandwagon, or the Pie Cart as its affectionately known around these parts, starts picking up steam, you'll want good seats.

Don't get left back by the bearded lady and those conjoined twins.

I went 20-0 against Cali in 1981. That's all I need to know to decide this "worst franchise" debate.

JJG emerges as a dominant pitcher in Baltimore with 15 wins and a sub 3.00 ERA.

A couple, not so bold, Milestones coming up for my team....

Mel Woodbury and Vincent Nino will both join the 300 HR Club
Everardo Gremades joins the 2000 Hit Club

[funclown]

I'm starting from bottom. I'll be happy with 65 wins. Hell, I even want my AAA team to improve on 26 win season??? Christ!

[Lintyfresh85]

I think you'll be better this year. You have too much talent not to.

I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Sin City and Pawtucket make the playoffs.

Sin City, maybe. Pawtucket? Who's going to pitch them to the playoffs?

[Pat]

In the IL, to make the playoffs, you gotta hit, you gotta play defense, you gotta have a great staff, a great pen, and you gotta get lucky. In the DL, you really only need to be average at a few of those things.

George? Really?

[Delandis]

I can't wait until my Internet is connected. Typing on a phone sucks. Anyway, I expect George to hit very well too. However, the way Sato has been raring the cover off the ball, Id look out for him.

On another note, I predict that Rodenas gets voted in as a reserve for this year's All star roster.
