David Ortiz Does It Again

[AmerikazMost]

After Wells continuously gave up leads, down 8-6 in the bottom on the ninth, David Ortiz hits a walk-off home run to straight center.

His second home run of the game, 37 of the year.

It is Ortiz's 12th walk off hit since 2003 (most in majors).

he owns the AL MVP. Just give it to him right now.

 

[tennis_dog]

that bias against DHs??? him and jeter def. are up there..... where the hell has tejada been after the 04 season?

pitchers can win MVPs too right??? liriano, maybe?? a cy young and an MVP and rookie for this kid??? or is he another takatsu...one good year, the next year teams figure him out and fuck him?

^ If Pedro didn't win the MVP in 1999, no pitcher will.

Papelbon > Liriano. As a rookie, Papelbon is on pace to set the lowest ERA mark EVER.

Liriano without doubt has my vote for rookie of the year.

Papelbon's projected stats:

G - 68
IP - 78
H - 40
[highlight]R - 4[/highlight]
HR - 3
[highlight]BB - 13[/highlight]
SO - 80
W - 3
L - 1
Sv - 43
[highlight]WHIP - 0.68[/highlight]
BAA - .147
[highlight]ERA - 0.51[/highlight]


That's arguably a better season than Gagne had in 2003 when he won the Cy Young award.

papi's hit yesterday was no more valuable than A-rod's RBIs in todays game

in less than 60 innings

Liriano's got a 1.96 ERA and amazing K/9 IP ratio as a STARTER

 

[tennis_dog]

yeah, as amazing as papel boy is, i thnk the starter deserves it more than a reliever in this case.... another pitcher thats very good, but equally to liriano is florida's josh johnson....

and if he had a couple more starts, a jered weaver maybe? he still has about 8 or 9 starts left...he could go 15-0??? hahaha


oooh, how about rich hill getting his first career win for the cubbies??? mmm
